    Default 2011-12 Draft Pick Discussion

    who?

    we'll have a top 3 pick, possible the first pick if Smack isn't ready to
    contribute.

    We absolutely have to get a game changer...

    first choice...Drummond at center.

    second choice...Davis at PF...not quite sold on him yet as a top 2 pick, but
    he's close.

    third...Barnes....if he continues to develop, he's got the drive to be a game changer.

    what say ye..

    Davis would be my first choice. Then Miller with my second. And then Barnes. Hope we don't pick Drummound I think he will either be a huge bust or stay in college.

    1st Drummond cuz its hard to find that quality C. It will move Bitchsmack to PF and could potential create the best front court. 2 bigs that can dominate the interior.

    2nd Davis cuz his upside is crazy. He just need to put on weight so he wont get pushed around so easy. I thought he could be a Durant clone with the height and speed but he hasnt shown the offensive power that I was looking for.

    3. Barnes He has Great Hill potential. Somebody that can do a little bit of everything. I would like for him to become the Jordan-esqe with that killer instinct. He wants to be the best and will do everything possible to reach it.

    I follow college ball pretty closely. I've probably watched 50 NCAA games so far this season, and thus far my Bobcats Big Board looks as follows:



    1/2. Drummond and Davis: both are those super young, crazy potential big men that you just simply cannot pass on. Davis hasn't shown much offensively, and Drummmond hasn't shown much period. But those two are at the top of nearly everyone's board

    3. Lamb: he is the only wing player thus far to show that he's capable of putting the team on his back and taking over the game. His ability to score at will and potentially be a great defender is something the Bobcats desperately need and just can't pass on. You fit him into your roster regardless since he's simply the next best player

    ---------------------------this is where things start to get a bit ehhh---------------------------

    4. Miller: fits a position of need so he's moved up, but there are concerns about his health. He's shown to be a great player, so we just have to wait and see how he continues to heal from the knee injury

    5. Sullinger: offensive potential is a nice pairing next to Bismack. Bigs are always valued highly, but I just wish he was a bit taller/longer. I don't like the prospects of two 6'9'' guys manning our frontcourt for the future

    6. Barnes: position of need, capable scorer, great defender, all the tools necessary except the one we need most... killer instict. He'll continue to slip until he proves otherwise

    7. Henson: once again, super talented big guys go high. He's lower because he's a Junior so you question his upside. I think he could be a nice fit with Bismack if he continues to show he can score the ball

    8. Beal: super underrated and not talked about enough, at all. Great shooter, great rebounder, good defender. Splits time in a crowded backcourt and still produces. And there just aren't better prospects right now

    9. P Jones: tall, lanky big man. See above. He's this low because I have a feeling he's a moron.

    10. T Jones: NBA body without a defined NBA position. All around package, needs to smarten up a bit.

    Henson reminds me of Ed Davis. He is just to damn skinny.

    Drummond. He reminds me of a C-Webb/Amare hybrid.

    That's the second time I've had my post get deleted. I'm going to try and summarize it this time. FACK



    Drummond has a higher potential
    Davis has a better chance of reaching his potential

    Drummond tends to check out from time to time
    Davis is a smarter, more technically sound player

    Drummond has more physical gifts, is a phenomenal athlete for his size
    Davis is more of an end-to-end, finesse type player

    Drummond has the potential to be a great man defender
    Davis has the potential to be a great help defender

    Drummond looks like more of a pick and roll offensive player
    Davis looks to be able to add a jumper to his game

    Drummond is very similar to Bismack in the way they play the game
    Davis offers a different dynamic


    So it depends on if you want to take another super risky player like Bismack in Drummond, or if you want to take a guy with a slightly lower upside, but better chance of reaching it in Davis because he's a better fit

    well the good news is we get to watch these guys play out the year before we get to pick,
    but Barnes and Drummond need to catch fire. Davis isn't proving he's the best pick, but
    he's the one that has the most momentum to get there.
