I'd prefer Bennett. Porter will be a poor man's Evan Turner.

If we keep the pick, I want Bennett or Porter. I'm leaning toward Bennett, as we look pretty good at SF. Webster is a great find, one which I hope we keep. Bennett would significantly improve our offense. We can take a minor hit to D if it comes to that.

Porter is ok but he isnt the right fit with Wall and Beal, Webster is an awesome fit and you can find a good SF anywhere, FA, 2nd round, a 3&D guy like Bullock, they literally are anywhere.

Trade the pick, either a trade down, a pick Bennett, or trade it with Okafor/Vesely for a starting guy inside, a guy that can make it happen now.

Ifthey stand still they're picking Bennett at 3 anyway

I agree with everything here. Porter doesn't seem like much of an upgrade over Webster so I don't get the excitement about him. I'd draft Bennett or trade the pick for a guy like Kanter or Horford.

I like Bennette over Porter as well but he also seems like someone who could be a huge bust. His length/size definitely concerns me.

I think Porter will be lots better than Turner, but again, Webster is pretty good for the price. Bennett gives us a potential all-star level talent.
