Jeremy Pargo PG, Gonzaga
George Hill PG/SG, IUPUI

Those are the only two that have been confirmed that have been worked out.

They are probably goingto workout some bigs like hardin, plaisted, lopez who knows though. I'm calling it right now we are going to draft trent plaisted he will be a nice rotation guy. He is also someone who clifford ray can work with. In the second round maybe its hill or pargo.

Is Jeremy related to Jannero? I've seen Jeremy play several times, but never knew if he was. He's quick as lightning and can score. Solid defensively too, and well coached under Mark Few.

Everywhere I've read has us taking DeVon Hardin, and I hope to god we pass on him. As a senior he couldn't even average double digits in points or rebounds. He's a big body but IMO he clearly is not starting material or could even develop into a starter.

I'd much rather go for a PG/SG, or if we want a big man, find one from abroad who we can develop and bring back in a few years.

I love draft time for the Celtics. DA is freakin maven at this. Two years ago he bought the rights to the fourth best player for a future 24th pick and some cash. He got a top ten player in the middle of the second round.

We'll get at least one good player, maybe two. We need to re-stock our trading chip inventory.

Pargo sounds good - we have a pick where we MIGHT be able to get a good PG...bigs are hard to get where we are picking.

Hardin isn't about offense, have you seen him play or you looking at his stats and saying oh we don't need that guy. Dude is 6'11" 250lb and jump out of the gym and defend. He has solid low post game and can throw it down.

Pargo is not an NBA ready player and is not a better prospect than Gabe Pruitt. As a combo option I really like Jamont Gordon, who reminds me a lot of TA the good and the bad, Cuttino Mobley as well. Not quite the athletic freak Tony is but a better shooter, could really be a killer bench scorer at the NBA level.

I like Rush as well as Bill Walker but I really think we need to go for size though.

I'm hoping for an athletic big (6-10 +) who can spell Perk and KG during the season - and - allow us to beat the Atlanta's in next year's playoffs. Hard thing is most of these guys never amount to anything.
Would love a trade for Villaneueva or David Lee.

Jason Thompson from Rider has been slipping, supposedly because he played in the MAAC. He is 6'10", athletic and has good post moves and a shot out to about 17ft.
