Noel and Davis in two years...................

Rim Protector City.

Vasquez/Roberts
Gordon/Rivers
Aminu/Miller
Noel/Anderson
Davis/Lopez

Nice defensive front-court, that's for sure.

Still, there's something sucky about that roster. :-?

You do need points to win.

This is something I don't understand. Why is it always reported the Pelicans are interested in drafting a PG like Burke, when they have a guy that is a top assist guy all ready. I would ask Pelican fans but no one is on that forum, lol.

They could go Saric or Shabazz -- that would help us!

DX top 100 prospects is interesting and very different than their mock draft:

Alex Len #1
Giannis #9
Nate Wolters #26

T'Wolves may look to trade down to select Mbakwe? Whoever writes those TnRs is clueless. How about selecting him in the frickin' 2nd round? How these people get jobs I haven't a clue :-?

That Gobert? His legs are sickly skinny. Put on some bulk!

Seriously. Dude looks like a refugee. He's got some serious reach, though. It'll be interesting to see how far he drops.

I believe that is the Giannis Adetokunbo

theGreatRC · Post #653 » by **theGreatRC** » Tue Jun 18, 2013 5:44 pm

As each day goes by, i'm becoming more and more content with KCP or Bazz at 9 and for no real reason at all other than i'm dying for some rumors or info on this Dipo situation.

Ah, good catch. Hopefully his skinny legs will cause him to drop to 26. :pray:

dx and nbadraft really can't seem to agree on anything in their mock draft.

I see him going #19 by Cavaliers, that's the lowest he should drop imo.

Zeller's workout with the Kings. Kid can really shoot it much better than I thought, but is he just another Chairman Yi?

It too bad Zeller isn't very good at basketball.

Come on now. It's not like he's some guy getting drafted on his physical attributes. He was very good at basketball in college.
