Wasn't this one of kirstens grand plans last year? Or maybe it was swedisheagle?

I just dont think Sullinger is an NBA starter. His struggles vs length are down right scary.

I agree. We already have Monroe, who struggles against long athletic players. I cant imagine having Sullinger and Monroe. I hope he's not on the radar. Sullinger to me is gonna be a late lotto pick or mid first. I wouldnt look at him in the top 10

Sullinger will not provide the toughness we need next to Monroe. That said, I think Sullinger is going to be a decent offensive player and pretty good rebounder for many years. Sullinger's weight issue doesn't bother me much. I wouldn't mind Sullinger since Davis/Drummond are not going to be available. I think Henson would also be a decent fit. This is a tough draft I see a lot of guys with bust potential.
For the first time in my life I realized that I was truly happy.......then I remembered I was drunk.

Thorpe made a point about Sullinger, saying his athleticism concerns could just mean he plays like Kevin Love. Or not.

I'm still firmly in the camp of just daydream of winning the lotto.

Love can get his shot off. Sully can not score on anyone bigger than him. He has no lift and cant create space. hes also a turnover machine.


Hes Corliss Williamson but Corliss was better in college and found his niche in the NBA. If you read the bios the guy that screams Dumars DNA is Moultrie. Southern boy who can play C or PF and is a underachiever.

Dumars DNA includes not being lazy.

At this point, I'll take Sullinger. We're a lot better than our record says.

I want nothing to do with Sullinger. If we're drafting a big we need him to be able to shoot over guys bigger than 6'8

Ok, hypothetically lets say we take out Sulllinger; were down to Henson, Moultrie, and PJIII; who do you take?

Henson or PJIII.

Henson might not be anything more than a backup big in the NBA, but he fits into our greatest need.

PJIII if we're going to swing for the fences. He's got the skills and ability. If he muster up some motor he'd be a great pick.

Honestly, I'd lean toward PJIII. If he pans out he could put us over the top. With Henson I'm a little worried that we'd be getting Maxiell's replacement. I'd take both of them over Sullinger though, who I think will really struggle against NBA size and length. (Hope Sullinger turns into the next Z-Bo, and I will gladly eat my words.)

Bail on the decision. You're regretting the pick before you even make it. Just bail.
