When someone doesn't like Lamb he is labelled an idiot. Don't just be calling whoever we draft a bust cause of the superstar expectations expected of them. The way some of you talk him up, it sounds like he should be a Top 3 pick

Not that I agree with the listing Doug Gottlieb made, but are you saying Doug Gottlieb only watched UConn once since he has Lamb at #16. The guy lives and breathes college basketball - watches more of it then anybody here.


No it wasn't directed at him, but to the other posters in this thread who are saying we're hyping up Lamb when all we're doing is just listing what his strengths are.

The coin flip with golden state was the real lottery. Decent chance one of them is there at 7, but 8? Good luck.

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

Hornets - Anthony Davis
Bobcats - Andre Drummond (think Kwame & MJ)
Wizards - MKG (trading Young and MGee for character guys, just makes sense to pick MKG and LOL @ anyone who brings up Singleton as a reason not to draft this monster)
Cavs - Brad Beal (Gilbert lucks out again and pairs Uncle Drew with Beal, excellent fit for them)
Kings - Thomas Robinson (pair him with DMC and watch out!)
Blazers - Harrison Barnes (just traded Wallace and need as much talent as they can get, BPA)
Warriors - now I can see them taking Lamb, BPA, Curry/Lamb/Wright/Lee/Bogut
Raptors - RAGE!!! :curse: :curse: :curse:

Let's just hope someone messes up and takes Sullinger leaving either T-Rob or Lamb for us.

Why would the Warriors take Lamb when they have Klay Thompson?

Lamb's going in the teens.

I got no problem with Ford's mock, which has us taking Waiters


Dion Waiters

Position: SG
Height: 6-foot-4
Weight: 215 pounds
Age: 20
School: Syracuse

Analysis: The Raptors are filled with a roster of mostly soft jump shooters. What they really need is a tough player who can get to the basket and get his own shot at the end of games. They need a true scorer. DeMar DeRozan might get there someday, but Waiters is there right now. The fact that Waiters can also play some point guard is a bonus. He could go anywhere from No. 6 to No. 15 on draft night.
