Watching Alex Len and he isn't as big of a stiff as I originally thought. He can really run the floor.

How high would you pick Noel if he dropped to us?

I wouldn't take him with the top 2 picks but I'd probably gamble on him at 3.

Mullens is an idiot.

Does Mully have a girlfriend? If he does, every bad game he has, his GF should tell him, "no BJ for you".

Uh, he runs the floor Marcin Gortat good. :dontknow:

I like Len, I just don't like him enough to draft high in the lottery.

Ahhhhhhhhh. I see. Thanks Bro.

It's just that whenever I see someone suggesting a big running the floor really well I automatically think of Aldridge at Texas because that was the thing about his game that really stood out to me so he became the yard stick.

Funny thing is that Texas never really took full advantage of it because they had that tool Gibson "running" the point and icing Aldridge every other time down the court (even though he beat everyone up and down - guards included) because all Gibson wanted to do was fire his own three ball shots off.

I hope we land the #1 pick and trade down. This draft is so depressing.

Poythress looks so much better as a stretch 4 ever since Noel went down. He and WCS are raising their stock considerably this game. Even Goodwin is knocking down 3's.

Minnesota fans seem to be salivating at the thought of pairing Rubio with McLemore. T-wolves were offering 1st rounders for established wings at the deadline so they probably don't think much about their draft slot either.

I want to trade out of this draft altogether so we can land us something nice in 2014. I'd rather have a top 5 pick in next year's draft than the best pick in this one. Or let's grab us an established young stud.

If Gordon wasn't always injured, yes, but I was thinking something for Klay Thompson or go all in for Demarcus Cousins or Paul George.

...wait, our first for Klay Thompson? I see no reason to think McLemore won't be better. Just as good of a shooter, much better athlete.

I'm just throwing out ideas. Of course we'd need something coming back.

Id love to give up our first for Thompson.
