    Default Possible Mike Dunlap choices

    I know many may not know much about him but since we did a thread on Shaw, which prospects would you think Dunlap prefer us to draft. Other than Moe Harkless, who would fit his style.

    I'm wondering if this actually rules out Moe. The last thing you need in a locker room is someone that enters as the coach's favorite. Not that hat would be the case with Moe, but it would be a weird dynamic that I'm guessing Cho will seek to avoid unless he really thinks Moe is the player to draft.
    SOMEONE will pay for THIS!

    I can't imagine they would go through the 2nd round of interviews and not ask the question: Knowing what you know about the draft talent who would you draft at #2....and Why. Cho likes a person that can think (not a knock on the coaches that didn't get the job).

    The point is, I would imagine Cho and Dunlap already have similar thoughts, or Dunlap knows that Cho's word carries more weight. It will be interesting in the next few days to figure out how much (if any) time MJ spent with Dunlap leading to this hire.

    TRob or Drummond for 3 reasons:

    1) They both fit team position needs (even though it could easily be argued that every position is a need)
    2) They both fit the up-tempo style offense (both bigs who can run the floor and are extremely athletic)
    3) Dunlap was hired before their workout on Friday and not before the Beal/MKG workout (as far as I know). If they wanted one of those two then he would have likely been picked before their workout.

    I think he'll identify early that it's clear that the person they select needs to be a self sufficient offensive player. I see MKG and Beal as those kind of guys. They absolutely need to get guys that flat out can create scoring opportunities by themselves. If that's by making a trade, getting that guy, and adding more pieces then wonderful.

    Devil's Advocate: How do you know that Dunlap wasn't in attendance today? Also, i'm pretty positive they keep video of these workouts...just saying.

    Both valid points. As for the attendance thing...I'm not sure. That is why I added the "(as far as I know)". As for the video...it's one thing to watch video of someone else's drills. It's completely different to use your own drills and do different things to see exactly what YOU, as the coach, want to see of the players.
