Mr. McLemore is certainly saying the right things.

I can't claim to be an expert on McLemore, Oladipo, Burke, Noel, Porter, or Bennett, but I trust Hennigan and his crew to make the correct decision.

I'll be excited regardless of who we draft.

Just an observation, does anyone else see a significant change in the style and content of BMac's tweets if you look back a couple weeks? I almost wonder if he's got a PR person tweeting for him now. Nothing wrng with that, just thought it was interesting.

Maybe I'm reading too much into it.

If he does have a PR person doing his tweets he's already ahead of the game. That's a good sign.

I'd take a flyer. We can absorb him and there's potential there.

I'd do it. I don't think he's gotten a fair shake between getting drafted by a dysfunctional team (sac) then being traded to a team that's looking to win now.

A top 5 pick for some our TPE...Hell yeah, I'd be stoked if Henny pulled that off.

It may be him getting comfortable with the media attention. Seemed little nervous when interviewed at the combine.

Not sure if this would be worthy of its own thread or if its already been discussed but I found it interesting, as its shows Henny is looking everywhere for talent....

If the Rockets need some sweetener, is it possible to trade the Lakers 1st rounder plus TPE for TRob?

I am all down for obtaining this player.

for whatever it's worth:

MagicalNBA ‏@MagicalNBA 5m
Magic have discussed acquiring 13th pick from Dallas already. We may not learn the details until draft day, but Rob is on it.


If true, I could take it as Magic going SG with #2 and hoping to get one of the top PGs at 13. Or, if Bledsoe rumor is true, we could go defensive big man with 13. Gonna be a fun 4 weeks.

Bledsoe
McLemore
Harris
Dieng
Vucci

6th man-Harkless

Still bad enough to tank but it lets us figure out if Bledsoe is our future PG and fills the defensive need at PF?

One step closer to:

Nelson/Schroeder
BMac
Harkless
Harris/AN
Vuc/Oquinn

^tanking goodness, most players on cheap deals, cap space for 2014,

With the #2 pick, the Magic aren't taking a jumpshooter with a bunch of tattoos.

They might not take him, but damn that's about one of the worst reasons I have ever seen on here.
