No size or athleticism? What MKG are you watching? He's a great defender, is strong as hell, and will be the hardest worker every night. Cant go wrong with that.
I am quite bummed out right now.
Dude has zero offensive game and doesnt even possess great size and athleticism.
Hopefully we pull either Wroten, Jenkins, Lamb, or English with the 31st pick.

230+ pounds, 7'0" wingspan, 8'8" reach. THAT IS SIZE at Small Forward. And he was one of the fastest players at the combine. Also, he is a high rebounder for his position, and that should be a good indicater of pro success.
He can guard 3 to 4 positions. That gives us versatiltiy with our lineups. He won't even be 19 until September.
I was slightly bummed, but this thing is a crap shoot. He could turn out to be quite deserving of the number 2 pick. It's not like anybody else stood out as a can't miss prospect. I wanted T-Rob. But we'll see.

I will repeat.
He doesnt have GREAT/ELITE size or athleticism.
All those intangibles are nice but without possessing any great skills (shooting, handling, scoring, ect) its a joke for a #2 pick. And even more absurd when you factor in the first sentence I wrote.
Cho was involved...I'm onboard! Go Cats

Not many support the pick except a few of the more level headed/experienced posters.
We've been through a lot of terrible drafts, but a lot of us also have faith in Cho to make the right decision.
MKG is like a young Crash, give him some time to develop.
Biggest thing that MKG has going for him though is his mindset. You won't see any type of Boris Diaw from him, hes hard working, great work ethic and plays hard on the court.

He's 19 and has the body of a grown man. Has the mindset we want the whole team to have. He's always hungry.
I shocked more than anything but he's a good player so we'll see how he develops.
