GREAT pick, I didnt scout this kid much at ALL because I thought he was gonna go earlier. but we drafted what we needed which is a powerfoward that is why I had us taking so many pf's at 9.

I see this means we are showing mcbob the door?

Vonleh > Zeller. Love the pick.

I know people are saying he plays like LMA but he kinda reminds me of Bosh

Surely yes. :nod:

McBob is a good player, but he's not a starter. With Noah, there's big time upside with defensive potential.

This is the most excited I've been about one of our draft picks in a long time. Didn't expect he'd be around for us to take, but Charlotte got fortunate. Get a shooter at 24, but this is great! BPA and fills a need.

I never thought Noah would fall to 9th. This is crazy, but it makes sense.

I just looked at film of this kid. It is only the second time I did. I actually would have rathered us take PAYNE instead of VENLEH. I think PAYNE is a more complete player.

Noah is 18
Payne is 22 I believe.

I would dearly LOVE to find a way to move up and get LaVine. Getting Vonleh and LaVine on the same night might be the greatest thing to EVER happen to the Charlotte team.

Voneh and Young or Hairston?

If Embiid is not gonna have carrer shortened by health issues he and Noel together could be a crazy tandem down the line.

Bill is giving Charlotte some love tonight.

I think you guys will be exciting in a couple of years. You just had to take Embiid.

UNCNYC · Post #338 » by **UNCNYC** » Fri Jun 27, 2014 1:13 am

Ok I just finished watching Vonleh. He reminds me of Payne. Both about the same size and have range. Since we didnt get Payne I am happy we got him.

You must not understand how the city of Philly works. We're doomed to bad luck on situations like this

PAYNE is so good man. I hope we made the right choice in Vonleh over him but I am happy with Vonleh
