we certainly have a few maths heads here don't we. :lol:

I'm fine with whoever we pick, as always the front office know a lot more about the players than we do and have their reasons, I think its insane to write a team or front office off over who they pick.

This team now does a lot of homework before doing any moves, so I'm sure who ever they pick has good reason to be picked at that time.

How good is this Lillard guy? I can see a scenario where we move down a few spots and take him. I'm not 100% sold on any of these guys in the top ten, other than Davis. We need a bigger point guard to pair with BG. Kemba ain't going to cut it as a starter with BG on the team.

BG isn't a long term solution, at best hes a sixth man, we can pick up a big PG in FA or the 2nd round

Floor: Better Rodney Stuckey
Most likely: Monta Ellis/Gilbert Arenas lite
Ceiling: Chauncey Billups good

I'd like to have him. Would create a logjam though with Walker, Lillard, Henderson, Gordon, Williams, and whoever else trying to get minutes.

How do you know? He could be long-term as a sixth man and in that case, we would need a bigger point guard. BG isn't playing 10 mpg. Playing Kemba and BG together this season is a recipe for disaster on defense.

Damn, I was hoping he was more pure point than those types. :-?
