The Official Rookie Discussion Thread

Rookie ladder updated on NBA.com...MKG has jumped up one more spot, currently at #3. Personally, I was hoping he would be ranked at #1 or #2 (at the 2 spot only if Davis was ranked #1)...Lillard had a poor night on Monday against the Hawks, going only 5-18 from the field and only scored 12 points. I think they didn't count that towards this week's ratings though...However, its still exciting to see our boy jump up one more spot, as we watch this kid get better and better through every game he plays!

Dude there is no way lillard is better than MKG come on man.. He needs #2 or #1

If we could not land Davis with the #1 pick, I think we did the right thing at taking MKG. Kid is special.

Agreed. Once we drafted him I was thinking like "Damn well I kinda wanted HB or Drummond" ahhahaha so glad we didn't..HB isn't looking too good.

@ Bobct8..while i am on board with MKG and love him just as much as u prob do....i think it would be unfair to not have Lillard ahead of MKG at this point....by no means am i saying that Lillard is a better playr or saying that he will be a better pro....but thru the 1st week and a half of the season Lillard has been a tad bit more impressive then MKG....with that said i would stll take MKG on my team over Lillard

I love Lilliard's game. But we have a young PG in Kemba, so there was no way we were going to go for Lilliard in this draft. And Kemba is vastly improved and is showing he is capable of growing into a terrific starting PG in this league. That is why I say we made the right decision in the draft.

Davis and MKG looking like the number 1 and 2 picks early on. Both have made a statement in the early games and i think both will be stars in the future

[OfficialBobcatsHD]

All I'm saying is look out for Harrison Barnes...He's not getting left behind...Future All Stars from this draft:
Davis...MKG...Barnes...Lillard...Waiters

Sleeper picks from the draft will be Kendall Marshall...Tony Wroten Jr...and Jeremy Lamb (If he get's a chance to play)
