I think most of our picks are taking into account need/fit. PF is the one position that is solid at this point.

Most, like myself, haven't seen Jonas play. That's why I'll take DX's word on Jonas > Jones III for now.

From what I've read, Jonas seems to be a defense, hustle, intangibles guy. Jones a passive guy with versatile skills. I think we need the former more than the latter. We have too many guys that like to coast on the court as is.

Perry Jones is garbage, plus we already have a dumb athletic PF who plays like a SF(Randolph), and Randolph is actually producing somewhat for us, I don't think Jones is going to be good at all, barring someone lighting a serious fire under his ass.

Get back to voting so we can get this to 20 (Where our memphis pick is)

Fixed. I knew that and brain farted.

Weird enough, I think Lamb has the tools to be a nice player but he annoys me for some reason. I think we need to gamble on upside and go Leslie. Crazy athlete, good defender, plays intense. Could be a Tony Allen type.

I agree with Rev that we should go upside here. I would be open to Jereme Richmond, Josh Selby, or Travis Leslie at this point, depending how they looked in workouts. I'd be more inclined to go Selby right now because we lack players that can create their own shot and he could be a nice 6th man down the road.

I have tried really hard to buy into the Selby hype. I just cannot do it. Something just seems off with him. He did not have a good year. He is not a pg, he is not even near big enough to play SG. I guess I would not be upset with him at the Memphis pick because he seems intriguing like something could be there, but I just have not seen it. Josh Selby was ranked #1 player in the 2010 HS class by Rivals.com.

I'm no Chad Ford but his handles look sloppy and his J is kinda slow w/ an inconsistent release point.
He can dunk though
