2011 NBA Draft Wants

[frontpager]

Jordan Hamilton! either Hamilton or Harrison Barnes will be a great pick for our team. in the twenties we could definetly grab a 4, however we do not need one unless we trade Diaw. We could get Keith Benson who has height and defense. Nolan Smith will not be a player in the NBA. He is too small for the 2 spot and is not a point guard, no PG abilities. We dont need a PG through the draft anyway. A possible second round pick could be Chris Wright from Dayton, or Kyle Singler if he falls to second round. Singler will be solid 3 man in league

I would never draft a player whos name I can't pronounce, there has been so many euro PF/C Busts, I would never draft them in the first round. Just 2 years ago Kosta Kufos was projected to go 6th.. Kosta...Kufos...

We wont draft a four anytime soon so long as we have 5 on the roster. Even if we trade Diaw and get rid of Eddy.

Our needs go: C, SF, SG, PG, PF

Despite all the European busts that have occurred in the NBA, I think C Jonas Valanciunas could be really good after a year of coaching from Oakley, but he is projected in some mocks as a top 5 pick so he will not be there unless we move up. I do like Maurice Morris from Kansas University, but he is projected as more of a PF than SF and we don't need that. This years draft is really weak, but I'm hoping we can land some talent. I've seen draft put us with PsF and PGs, but I think C and SF should be our main focus

Ignorance is a bliss I guess.

larry brown could have said the same thing about darko millcic

Harrison Barnes
Terrence Jones
Marcus Morris
Jordan Hamilton
Kawhi Leonard


Work those 5 out HARD predraft and take the one we think is best. One of them can be a nice young replacement for Crash. With the second pick, we absolutely have to go big. The only big is JaJuan Johnson (and maybe Keith Benson) so we have to pray to God that he's available for us

Agreed One of Terrence Jones, Jordan Hamilton, Harrison Barnes or Chris Singleton need to be in a Bobcat uniform next year. SF, C and backup SG are our needs. I hope we can somehow get Marc Gasol here via free agency and then go SF and SG with our picks.

Terrence Jones jump shot is too slow for the league and is shot beneath his chin. He is a project, while the other (Barnes, Hamilton, Burks). Gasol wont be leaving Grizzlies anytime soon, they will overpay him if they must, look at Rudy Gay. I think we should possibly take a look at Greg Oden. Get him for low amount on two year deal with team option for the second. Oden is injury prone, but a two year deal at 3 mill a year would be worth it if he stays healthy. Look at how many people get hurt in Portland, maybe it is just their training staff/bad luck. When he has been healthy, for the short duration, he has been one of best 10 centers in league. the risk would be worth the potential payoff. no different than drafting a player based on potential.
