The Brandon Knight Bandwagon Thread 

Post#1 » by Visceral » Wed May 18, 2011 4:37 am

Well, let's get optimistic folks. If we are going to pick a PG, it's gonna be him! Kemba is much more likely to be an SG than a PG, and Brandon has the size, athleticism etc. He also is more likely to develop his true point guard skills.

Now all we need is some Brandon Knight sigs. Anyone got any?

Knight and Kemba will both be PGs. Kemba is more of a finished product, Knight is all about long-term potential. Most of us are gonna be going back and forth on these 2 till draft day.

Don't you actually have to have "true point guard skills" in order to develop them. Both Kemba and BK are undersized sg/combo guards. Do not want either one. Greivious Vasquez, is a legit pg, that's a young under the radar pg that I would try and acquire.

Jazz's Corbin places heavy weight on college experience. Wants to choose someone at No. 3 who knows they belong in NBA and is ready to go.

No matter which one we pick, I think it's imperative we give them as many minutes as possible. I'm fine with giving them 35+ mpg right off the bat, why not? We are developing them. Especially Knight.

Knight or Kawhi. Nothing more, nothing less. Forget a Kemba.

IMO bayless is proven more than these guys i would take a risk and get a guy like biyombo if not trade down for him and get more assests...fml this is the worst thing to happen to this franchise since carter missed the game winning shot in philly, seriously the nba is rigged.

Most of the highlight I posted are before he entered college. Also, hey, this is a consolation prize to be brutally honest, lol. Most at this point are. We take what we can get.
