KOC has redeemed himself. I take back everything I ever said. His greatest pick besides D-Will. GET EM KOC!!!!
2012 draft > 2011 draft

How about instead, we all off ourselves and become Thunder fans.

How about you do that.
Does this guy have a real shot at making the team? I like that he's 6'6

hope this is not CJ miles 2.0. Any ways I was hoping they'd trade up to get perry jones at the late first round hes a steal.

I think he does. We need a Jamaal Crawford kind of guy and he is that guy.

Think Marshon brooks but a little less athletic. He's gonna be good and at least a solid starter for us. One of the top 5 steals of this draft and the best in the 2nd round imo.

So quick to encourage suicide. What a bunch of angels.
Is nobody here even annoyed to the slightest? Or is this the crowd that eats up that 'we're stable' nonsense excusing the lack of testicles in the FO?
And I'd rather not hear about the Deron trade. You wouldn't praise Big Al for going 1-20 from the field.

I think marquis teague was a steal for the bulls. Don't know much about Murphy but I know Machado was available, I was hoping we would draft him.

they said he is inteligent so probable he wont be next Cj
Expectable pick after English was gone, but i think we should have done something to move up to get Missouri guy he would be perfect for Jazz, about Jones also shame summer would be much more intriguing with him in our lineup

Hes definitely a great pick for 47. Strong, isn't one dimensional scores inside and out. If hes smarter than CJ and chooses his shots Id say KOC is a genius. Also Not drafting a PG brings us close to the Mo William trade.

Very, very frustrating draft for me. Seeing all the possibilities, and watching talented players drop. Hearing of Dallas trying to move the 24th pick, and not seeing anything from the FO. I was hoping to see something done with Sullinger, Melo, and Perry all dropping into the late first round.
I can't believe we couldn't swap next years pick for a chance at one of them. Too good of talents to pass up. I know the Jazz are loaded with bigs, but man that was hard to take.
The other frustrating part was watching the tanking Warriors get good talent.
I thought Houston drafted very well, and Boston stole Sull & Fab. Cavs drafted very well too.

On the bright side I think we'll be fine not getting out draft pick this year. Unless Austin Rivers turns out to be crazzzy good, which he could I guess, this was a 7 person draft! ... or at least there was definitely a noticeable drop off after the first 7

Something's telling me most of you never saw Kevin Murphy play, otherwise you wouldn't be thinking about those other guys. Not much footage of him but here you go .....

Yeah I could only see that one game but its all offensive highlights. Would of like to see more games with some defense. Moris Almond dropped 53 in the d league but his game never translated in the NBA.

i saw ZERO of Murphy.... but i credit KOC, we targeted a shooter, and we got one. Seems really a sleeper, quite raw and not tested at high competion level.
"Murphy is the shooting sleeper of the draft. He has great length and a killer step-back jump shot. You may never have seen him play at Tennessee Tech, but he has a chance to stick in the league for a long time as a bench scorer." –Seth Sommerfeld

Haha, everytime I see Brooks play, I can only think of the rising stars game where he took 4 steps back to shoot a three and airballed it. It was brilliant!
I like the pick, as much as you can like a pick at 47. I was really hoping Lamb would fall to us, and almost did, but oh well. At least it's not another slow white guy, right?
