In my perfect world, which will never exist.
All hypothetical obviously and saying we have a top 3-5 pick.
Pick 1- Beal- Extremely talented 2 guard with a ton of upside.
Trade up do what you have to do and then grab Barnes
You give me
Kemba/Beal/Barnes/Tyrus/Biyombo I would be extremely excited to watch what happens over a couple years.
Anyone but the over hyped Harrison Barnes if we are picking inside the top 10.
The reality when it comes to Harrison Barnes is that he will most likely be the seventh or eighth guy off the bench. If he is picked too early he will disappoint based on where he is picked.

There are plenty of players better suited to our team than Harrison Barnes who is way over rated. This imagined idea that his ceiling is really high is a pipe dream. Harrison has not made that much of an improvement from last season. If anything he has taken a step backwards. You guys can dream of Harrison Barnes, I will dream of more deserving players aside from him in the early lottery.
Yeah, it would be a mistake to take Barnes. Just another way overhyped UNC guy, ala Marvin Williams.
Drummond or Lamb.
I'm in the Davis or Drummond group, but right now I'm thinking Davis. A better all-around set of skills.
1. Drummond
2. Lamb
3. Davis
Uconn all the way! Worked out well for my predictions last year.
Kemba and Bismack: The Future Has Arrived
Lamb is going to be a way better NBA player than Barnes. Speaking of Uconn players, I got to admit Drummond looked pretty good today, 24 points with 11 of 12 from the field to go with 8 rebounds and 5 blocks. Maybe he won't be the second coming of Kwame
didn't thabeet put up numbers like that too?Originally Posted by Chrystos

Thabeet was a defensive monster in college, never an offensive player. He was touted mostly for his HUGE size (7'4) and immense defensive potential. Even then, he was drafted way too high and the Grizz were pretty much universally laughed at for taking him so high. Drummond on the other end is an extremely talented, high potential ATHLETE. I'm much more a fan of his than I was of Thabeet's.
