hahahaha Collison wishes he was half as good as Augustin.

Rose exposed Augustin, yeah Rose is better, but he put Augustin into the fetal position that game. That's the caliber player he'll be facing on a nightly basis.

WE DO NOT NEED A SF

Someone had to say it... seriously if Petrie picks Gallinari OR Batum I might just kick myself in the face.

I don't know. I have been reading up on Batum and watching highlights/game tape. This kid has some serious tools. And WE NEED TALENT. On a lotto team you need whatever you can get. Especially when your starting SF has such and uncertain future anyway.

Batum is almost like Josh Smith IMO. Once he bulks up he'll could be a serious threat on both ends of the floor.

Augustin is the next Damon Stoudemire. Could do worse I guess.

There are only a handful of PGs with Rose's size and athleticism, so he won't be facing that mismatch on a nightly basis, although it is a concern.

Im going with McGee also.

All right--just one more vote for McGee!

lol At least Augustin did a little better than Collison. Rose got Collison so frustrated/humiliated he fouled himself out of the freakin game dude with like 5 mins left.

14th Pick -
Gallanari 2 <-- (My Vote)
Love 2
Batum 1
Collison 1

Gallinari may be a SF, but Love doesn't fit our team, and Gallinari will be a much better player than Batum or Collison.

Players to consider
Possible Players
PG - Ty Lawson, Darren Collison, Mario Chalmers
SG - Nicolas Batum, Chase Budinger, C.Douglas-Roberts
SF - Danilo Gallinari, Donte Green, Brandon Rush, Earl Clark, Tyler Smith
PF - Kevin Love, Serge Ibaka, Jason Thompson
C - Hasheem Thabeet, Robin Lopez, Roy Hibbert

Gallanari (3)
If he fell to us it would be the steal of the draft. At this point we just need BPA.

Post #151 » by **pillwenney** » Wed Apr 16, 2008 10:21 pm

For me it's definitely between Love and Gallinari at this point. I think I'll go with Love.

Both are poor fits, but at least Love would definitely see some burn next year, and thus help increase his value. I don't know if the same is true about Gallinari.

Love (3)
Gallinari (3)
Batum (1)
Collison (1)

I think for this team its big over wing, so I'll go with Love over Gallinari

BMiller52 · Post #153 » by **BMiller52** » Wed Apr 16, 2008 11:37 pm

Give me Collison.

Gallinari at 15th would be one of the best steals EVER!!!

Post #157 » by **pillwenney** » Thu Apr 17, 2008 3:00 am

Yeah, now I'll take Gallinari. He's by far BPA at this point.

^Yeah, I'll go with Gallinari as well.
