pre draft workout news

But the warriors, jeez they are working out over 20 guys! I know the don't pick in the same area buy I wish we'd workout that many.

what's their draft position btw? i have no idea why they workout a lot of guys while we don't. are we missing in on something?

i read somewhere a couple days ago.. that vincent said they intend to bring in 20 or more guys through out the process...

i dont think theres any need to worry... were gonna work out enough people by the time its all said and done.

what i am interested in thouh is, do we have any plans to work out Yi. if he falls to us by chance and we havent worked him out do you still take him

horford, Yi, Brewer... drafting one of those guys is the only way i can see us as having an A+... after that its a drop down to a B.

I hope to God we workout Yi, because you never know. He could drop to us(unlikely) but he could.

I have not heard of any Bobcat workouts for Yi. But i heard hes doing open workouts for instered teams to come and look at him. As much as i like Brewer i feel like we will be making a big mistake if we let Yi slip by us. I all so read by doing workouts the way hes doing them will hurt his draft stock and he might fall as far as us.

exactly dav

brewer im hoping...falls to us.. but if its a question of brewer/Yi.

its gotta be Yi... atheletic 7 footers dont grow on trees.

Had 3 more workouts today. Jared Dudley from BC, Hebbert Hill from Providence, and Chris Richards from Florida.
I like Richards. He's underrated. If he wouldn't have been playing behind Noah and Horford people would know alot more about him.

3 other players we worked out. Carl Landry from Purdue, E.J Drayton from UNCC, and Ivan Radenovic from Arizona.
I haven't heard of Drayton or Radenovic, but I have heard of Landry.

Charlotte.com is reporting that Brandon Wright had a strong workout with the Bucks. This is what they had to say

"For a young kid, he just came in with a presence," said Dave Babcock, the Bucks' director of player personnel. "He's only had one workout (with Boston), and he was right into it."

Wright, who left North Carolina after his freshman year, followed the energetic prodding of Bucks assistant coach Bill Peterson during an hourlong workout.

The lean and athletic player showed a nice touch on jump hooks and short jumpers, and after a difficult start at the foul line the left-handed shooter began sinking his free throws.

That's actually a good thing. I've seen a lot of mock drafts that have Brewer going to the Bucks. So if MIL is high on Wright and he's there when they pick that's one more spot Brewer falls closer to us.
