I don't think Reke is a horrible player but I don't think I'd move the 2012 pick for him.

By the way, I read on Wiretap a while back that Miller and PJIII were mulling over whether or not to declare for the draft....does anyone know if they've made their decisions yet?

[/quote] Not at all. Explain how a guy goes from rookie of the year and one of the top rising stars in the NBA to a bad influence? Someone shot his dog and now he's angry at the world? I don't think so. That's completely on the coaching staff and management. The guy is only 22.[/quote]

Because he bought into his own hype and turned into a super selfish player and is too immature to grasp the concept of team play and winning basketball...[/quote]

Maybe. But that's still a product of poor leadership.[/quote]

You can't really say what the cause of that is. These people have a lot of influences, there's no evidence to suggest that removing him from one environment would suddenly change him from a losing player into a winning one, especially moving him from one losing environment to another. If he went to maybe the Celtics, Spurs, Mavs type team those habits could be broken but I don't think a place like Toronto, Washington, Golden State, or the Bobcats would benefit a guy like him in anyway.

So Nerlens could be over 7 feet when the draft rolls around and Shabazz could be a legit 6'6" or taller. It's extremely promising for whoever has high picks in 2013.

Kyle anderson really intrigues me. The dudes game is sooo smooth but my question is what position will he play? Pg? sg? sf?

Tyreke isn't a BC type of guy.

This kid whenever he comes out will replace Lebron and Wade as the best wing player in the game... He is gone be sick.

I wish we tanked next year for Shabazz ...

I wouldn't give up a top 15 pick for Evans. Evans is awful.

fredericklove · Post #1089 » by **fredericklove** » Sat Apr 7, 2012 10:47 pm

Yeah see, ballboy, none of us want Evans. It's not like BC will trade for him, so deal with it.

LOWRY!

Me and the ballboy :lol:

I just think people are sleeping on Tyreke Evans in Sacramento like they slept on Jamal Crawford in New York. Get the kid a good locker room and a good coaching staff and watch him thrive imo.

Agree, but he needs to play SF

If you want a guy like Evans, combine our 2nd rounders and move up into the late 1st round for Wroten. Don't waste our lotto pick trading for him.

Marlo Stanfield · Post #1095 » by **Marlo Stanfield** » Sun Apr 8, 2012 1:26 am

Nobody likes Kyle Lowry either? Is his age (26) the only problem?

DreamTeam09 · Post #1096 » by **DreamTeam09** » Sun Apr 8, 2012 1:26 am

you know what really messed up the NBA when you think about it as far as parity goes, is the age limit. Now this draft would be really deep if Shabazz / NN / Kyle anderson were in play. Trob / MKG prolly slide to 4-5 instead of 2-3. Buh den a guy like barnes who could work himself into a #2 position this yr with some excellent workouts prolly has no chance at #2 with those guys and stay in the 6-10 range.

Marlo Stanfield · Post #1097 » by **Marlo Stanfield** » Sun Apr 8, 2012 1:28 am

A few of the college guys who make it deeper wouldn't be in the draft though if there was no age limit.

DreamTeam09 · Post #1098 » by **DreamTeam09** » Sun Apr 8, 2012 1:32 am

They would just get pushed to the 2nd round.

Marlo Stanfield · Post #1099 » by **Marlo Stanfield** » Sun Apr 8, 2012 1:47 am

No I mean that guys would have just come straight out of high school and be drafted in previous years.

DreamTeam09 · Post #1100 » by **DreamTeam09** » Sun Apr 8, 2012 1:50 am

^^ Oh yeahh you ri you ri...... am high man...

If Anthony Davis goes #1 and the Raps get the # 2 pick, who gets drafted?
