'13 Draft Thread (Let's talk late lotto again! Yaaay!!)

I'm on the Archie Goodwin to Milwaukee Bandwagon. He's in our draft range and fills the last spot we need. Obviously things change, but he's a good Arkansas kid and would fit in with the squad perfectly.

Should be a fairly strong class with 3 very nice players at the top and strength through 15. Can't wait to get this thing started and see some of these guys play.

McCollum is a natural, love his game.

@jeffborzello: Wisconsin's Bruesewitz out 4-6 weeks after surgery. Could this open door for Sam Dekker? http://cbsprt.co/W1Zq2P

Bad news for Brueser, and injuries are never a good thing, but I can't help but get even more excited about Dekker after hearing this. There was no way in hell Bo was going to start Dekker over Bruesewitz unless something happened.

Hopefully Bo let's Dekker play his game instead of just passing and shooting 3s.

So by posting that in here are you insinuating Brueswitz is late lottery worthy? :lol:

I think MCW is a really intriguing potential pairing for Jennings. I'll be watching him closely this year. For now my preference is McCollum.

At the moment, looks like a very top heavy draft. I can't really comment on the incoming freshman, besides saying that I think it an OK group, but for the guys that are returning I like:

Zeller
Mitchell
McCollum
Young

I'm not feeling McAdoo, Leslie, Plumlee, Nash, or Thomas. High bust potential there. Otto Porter should be above them on that list.

Really like McCollum. He'd be excellent value if he's available in Bucks' drafting territory.

CJ Leslie is good. I've always liked him. McCollum is probably a little small to play 2 in the NBA. Seems more like the new combo/attacking point the NBA is in love with (Westbrook). But I've barely seen him play so I retain the right to change my mind.

I wonder if Hammond is still looking for a center.

Shabazz Muhammad, injured right shoulder during Wednesday practice. MRI to be reevaluated today.

The Wet Whistle · Post #74 » by **The Wet Whistle** » Thu Nov 1, 2012 9:28 pm

Since Emunney has been advocating McColumm I started checking out any video I could find on him. Seems like a really interesting player, but since I havent ever seen him play live is there anything to know about him outside of what the highlight videos show? Like defense ability or court vision/awareness?

LUKE23 · Post #75 » by **LUKE23** » Tue Nov 13, 2012 8:53 pm

McCollum killing so far.

Glenn Robinson's kid looks pretty damn smooth.

McAdoo with a strong start.

Like BJ Young and Archie Goodwin as a Bucks targets.

Thunder Muscle · Post #76 » by **Thunder Muscle** » Tue Nov 13, 2012 9:05 pm

Yes, sign me up for Big Dog 2.0

What I saw of him last night, he looked pretty damn good. Smooth like said above, he is pretty well put together too it seemed.

+Michael Carter-Williams if Bucks keep winning. Archie is my #1 target with Shabazz off the table, but we'll have to tank some to get him. I think Goodwin would be perfect for the Bucks.

SG is the obvious position of need for the 1st rounder. As for the second rounder, another PG or even SF would be nice. For the most part, the frontcourt is pretty much set for the foreseeable future.

Nebula1 · Post #79 » by **Nebula1** » Tue Nov 13, 2012 10:21 pm

I think that's right..

1st rounder = SG
2nd rounder or additional picks = SF or PG

Cue the BPA! posts...
