2012 Orland Magic NBA draft thread ...

Its funny that we could potentially have a shot at Perry Jones III or Jared Sullinger both are top ten talent. This is the best case scenario you can have picking at 19 that teams let top talent slip past them because of silly reasons.

So if on draft night our pick comes up and both Sully and Perry are there who do you take? Me personally I'm taking Sully because he is such a pollished big man and would make our team a lot better imo. I don't think you can go wrong here with either player though.

If its between Perry Jones and Sullinger ..I'd go Jones because he's athletic and versitile and most importantly not medically flagged for anything. We need athletes on this team.

Concerns about his back

More reason for us to take him!

My thing on Sullinger is the situation of his back.....how concerning is it?

I've heard that Jeremy Lamb is going to need to hav surgey on his shoulder and could possibly have to have surgey on both of them. If this is true he could suffer a similar slip like Sullinger and again I would take him at 19 even if he had to sit half the year out.

Perry Jones is a better fit with Dwight, because he does not have the alpha dog gene and also because he is a good shooter. Sullinger would be a better get if Dwight is leaving.

Looks like Big Baby 2.0 with a better passing game. Got his shots blocked a lot, exactly like Big Baby. Unathletic and probably going to gain weight. Overall, not very impressive for a projected 6th pick. I'll still take him though, if he slip to 19th.

you know what the funny thing is that the more i do research about certain prospects the more i realize that this draft is one of the deepest in a while.....lots of players with upside.....for example today i was taking a closer look at Tony Wroten....Conclusion? i like him the kid has great upside imo.....i know his shooting leaves a lot to be desired but that can be coached......While he did have quite a few turnovers his vision and creative passing ability is something you can't teach he has it......plus his ballhanding and penetrating ability he got to the line a lot in college iirc.....i can see him being a better passing version of Tyreke Evans.....can't teach size and athleticism either and he has it.....

Wow Waiters really shot up.

If we have to go PG, I'm still where I stand from the beginning, Wroten or Marshall or the second round trade/pick of Machado or Tyshawn.

But I'm still hoping for a wing at 19, mainly Quincy Miller. I think the players' coach gives Miller and Liggins big minutes, with the 2nd rounder PG some too.

You can't build an argument that he wants to leave because he hasn't signed an extension. Things are very much in the air. Whether he wants to leave or not is uncertain even to him! Stop acting like you know he wants to leave. If he wanted to leave, he could've been gone by now. He'd be joining Deron in NJ RIGHT NOW! He had the power to do that and he decided to opt in to the final year of his deal instead!!!! His heart is in Orlando and he will give them every chance.

Whatever....I am telling you Dwight is GONE! I am not happy about that but after his antics over the last year I am not going to be blubbering about it either. And I think he waived his opt out because he was afraid he would not pass the physical because of his back. Not because he wanted to stay in Orlando or was "loyal."
