Would anyone want the Warriors seventh pick if they were able to keep it away from the Jazz?

you never know
we may end up with the #1 pick

I believe 14/16 for 7 has happened before, but can't remember when...

Does anyone know where there's a list of all the players in the draft and their stats? I guess I'll have a looksee at it sometime soon.

you mean predraft measurement?

i don't know trade up to get who
other than anthony davis and michael kidd-gilchrist
i'm not sure who else to pick from #4-#10
is austin rivers any good?

I wasn't saying I think it's necessarily a good idea, just that I think it's happened.

I have no idea of anyone that's in the draft other than Davis.

If we trade for anyone in the draft (other than Davis, obviously), it better be Andre Drummond. Though, I could see the possibility of Perry Jones falling, and maybe a trade back for Fab Melo.

I've said it before,

Jared Sullinger is who we need/should be targeting. According to that link they having him dropping to us at 14th, that would be a godsend.

He is so strong on the rebounds, he boxes out like the Hulk we could use that.
He has got strong post moves, we really need that.
He has a great shoot, great court vision, great hands gonna be a beast in the pick and roll.
Quick feet.
Literally double teamed on each possession in college, that sh*t wont happen in the pros.
He has got to be the #2 player on our big board, and seeing how Davis is #1 but unrealistic... Just gotta get this guy.


Jae Crowder I didn't watch him as much as Sully(saw pretty much every Buckeye game) but this kid is sooo beast amazing shooter, amazing passer, AMAZING rebounder, amazing defender...

But I don't even see him on that mock list if so, he is a must have also, even though he is a 3 and we have Parsons. The can play together on the wings no problem, That would give us 3 play makers on the court.


I have called a lot of beast players in the past, like Hayes ... lets hope we get both of them and i'm right.

So when in this scenario do we actually get some height on this team (which we desperately need)?

McHale apparently doesn't play height...
We had two 7ft top 10 shot blockers in the league.

He would play 6'9 Patterson for whole 4th quarters at the 5...


Might as well just draft a beast scorer/rebounder.



Anyway no way in hell I would want to gamble our future on Drummond, it would take alot to get him, and what you propose we give up for him I'd just rather keep and go after a current star.

Drummond has shown nothing in his year at UConn... poor Micheal Bradley

well you could get #10 for the 14 and 16... obviously youd want higher but i wonder if youd settle.

I will say it again no to Sullinger.

Sullinger in the 2nd half of the Semifinal game scares me off (2 for 11 shooting)

"I could barely see," Sullinger said. "I couldn't see over a 7-footer, and a 6-10 guy [Robinson]."

I want to gamble in the Draft like if Perry Jones is there at 12 maybe 10 then I would like to see the Rockets move up. Do not like the Idea of moving up and using the a top five pick on Drummand.

I say trade down for future picks or future rights to swap picks.
Get 3 late first round picks. Draft the 3 players from Vanderbilt. (Taylor, Jenkins and Ezeli)

agreed with you
rather go with Sullinger than giving up too much for Drummond
too much hype
Austin Rivers look so skinny i'm afraid Tony Allen can break him into pieces

Thats a bad quote... this is what he said when asked about the Whitey/Robinson double teams.
“I could barely see. Some people say I’m only 6-foot-4, and I can’t really see over a 7-footer and a 6-10 guy.”

Sullinger was always doulbed, a shot blocking big on his back and an athletic big fronting him and you are worried he went 2-11, if Thomas didnt have such a horrilbe shooting night OSU wouldn't have lost by 2.


Think about it this way Sullinger gets double(sometimes tripled) every game, but he never needs help to guard his man, whether is a bigger 7fter or an athletic 4.

When guarded T-Rob a couple times when Whitey went out and Robinson looked nowhere on Sullinger's level. Offensive(commanding doubles) or defensively(i think Sully blocked Robinson twice, whitey once).

PJ3 no offense has future bust written all over him... I mean what does he do better than Sullinger anyway?
Worse shooter
Worse rebounder
Worse defender
Worse passer
Lower Bball IQ
Better athlete
Inconsistent player, who always seems to play down to his competition. He is like a Tryus Thomas/Anthony Randolph player. All hype/potential... Don't hold your breathe.

Give me Fap.....FAP MELO!!!

Sorry for the misquote, I copied it from this pro-Jayhawk, very anti-Sully column. But your version sounds more believable.

Where would we play him though with Scola, Patterson and Motiejunas all taking time at the 4 spot?

Like I said take a chance and hope for the best. See nothing that excites me about Sullinger and will admit I do not follow OSU like you but sometimes I just think you are letting your fandom make this push for him. A lot like V.Y. in Houston

Tired of this play safe BS.

I'm a bigger Rockets than anything else, i just wanna see use get the best combination of players.
Aside from Sully the only other Buckeye I ever really wanted was/is Turner. Didnt want Oden cause we had Yao.

I guess next year i would like to pick up Craft(so similar to Lowry) if we dont have 2 of our current pg's.

If we draft another 4 I would hope Scola gets traded, even though he is one of my favs. Only problem with having Patterson/Motie/Sully is I know McHale would play Sully at the 5, which he can defend 5's, and would distract them from getting a giant shotblocker. The good thing is all 3 of those guys can shoot(well im don't know Motie game but it appears he is a decent shooter)
