Thanks to the Wiz win we've got a really good chance at netting a pick in the 2-4 range. The good thing is, we don't need the first pick to grab a stellar point guard... if Minny nets the 1st pick, either Irving or Rubio will be up for grabs. Most likely they'l take Irving and shop the rights to Rubio, but there's a chance they'll go with Wililams or Barnes or somebody leaving Irving up for grabs in the draft. Either way, things are looking good... just as long as the ping pong balls don't **** us up.

Biyombo is so damn athletic. I wonder where he'll go in this draft.

I'm thinking late lotto to mid-1st round.... I think at the very least he can be a great defensive role-player to bring off the bench, with some Ibaka-ish upside

Hey, this Biyombo fella sounds intriguing.

Can you imagine the defensive potential of a Davis/Biyombo pairing? Get a PG in here to create some offence for these guys.

Could be an intriguing pairing, especially if we are able to get all of our primary scoring from the 1/2/3 (which could be possible if we roll with Bayless at our starting PG, and draft one of Barnes/Perry/DWill with our lotto pick). I'd want to see him go up against some bigger guys in the workouts though, since there was noone on the USA team that looked like an NBA C prospect (seeing him up against Kanter/Val would be great, although I get the feeling they might not do competitive workouts).

@HoopConsultants Mike Procopio:
Bismack Biyombo can be a rugged tough big in the @NBA. He plays too hard and is committed to the defensive end not to be an NBA player

@chadfordinsider Chad Ford
No. 16 on our Big Board Bismack Biyombo had a triple-double (12-11-10 blocks). No. 1 on '12 Big Board Anthony Davis with 16-10 rebs for USA

@blazersedge Ben Golliver
Bismack Biyombo fondly recalls being 7 years old & watching Karl Malone play on TV with his father, who he says was built like the Mailman.

DraftExpress Jonathan Givony
LOL. Measured 6-9 in shoes in Portland. 7-7 wingspan. RT @HoopConsultants: How tall is Biyombo. Sorry too lazy to get up and ask you.

This is a joke. Bismack Biyombo blocking shots with his elbow now. Who cares how old he is? How high does he go after this?

Saer Sene couldn't get off the bench for Pepinster, the worst team in Belgium. Bismack Biyombo plays for a playoff team in Spain.

For those saying Bismack Biyombo is just another Saer Sene, he's been doing this same stuff for a while now in the ACB. Totally different.

Bismack Biyombo had zero experience, but came into ACB and immediately led the league in blocks. That's how you know he's something special.

Offense is the weakest part of Bismack Biyombo's game, but he's carrying the World Team rw/his play inside the paint. Stock rising big time.

Block party at the #NikeHoopSummit. Bismack Biyombo and Anthony Davis are inviting everyone. Both guys finishing around basket powerfully.

What a block by Biyombo. Good lord. With left hand. That's a 7-7 wingspan right there.

Bismack Biyombo's length, athleticism, intensity all very evident so far, as is his lack of polish & experience.Shouldn't be making decision

This kid's stock is going to rise very fast in this draft

He has excellent handles, can create penetration whenever he wants to against PFs. Perry Jones actually has pretty weak handles, didn't score on almost any of the ball handling attempts he had last season, he's extremely out of control when driving to the basket.



.....................................................What? I know he's soft, not assertive and don't have high motor...but PJ3 has weak handles and "extremely" out of control when driving? Are you sure you're talking about PJ3 here, I have not seen any of that in all of the baylor games he played this year, I dunno where u get these information from.
