Andre Drummond is HUGE, I really hope this kid pans out.

JamesNaismith · Post #1082 » by **JamesNaismith** » Fri Jun 8, 2012 3:29 pm

Off all of the speculation:

1. Davis
2. Drummond
3. MKG
4. Barnes
5. TRob
6. Lillard
7. P or T Jones

8. BEAL?!??!?

I would freak out lol....but if POR and GSW take the guys they're rumored to I will be blown away. But I also think there's a good chance CHA takes MKG and therefore WAS takes Beal and POR takes Drummond (which is far more likely) but man I would LOVE if things played out as speculated.

But I just can't even imagine Beal dropping this far.

Crowder has huge hands

Marlo Stanfield · Post #1087 » by **Marlo Stanfield** » Fri Jun 8, 2012 3:39 pm

Jae Crowder remains a huge steal. Measurements be damned, the kid can play. I couldn't care less if he was 6'3". Guys like Paul Millsap, Chuck Hayes, and even Chris Paul show you the little guys got game. And the same goes for Quincy Acy. Both Acy and Crowder will be HUGE steals, book it.

BillyGM · Post #1088 » by **BillyGM** » Fri Jun 8, 2012 3:40 pm

I think Jae Crowder will be there at 37th.

If Crowder, Quincy Miller and Quincy Acy are all there at 37 I'll be torn. I'd try my hardest to get 38 and 39 and just pick them back to back to back. Acy and Crowder won't play like rookies. Miller probably will, but I'll wait for a guy with that skillset.

Still believe Quincy got a promise the day he said he was returning to Baylor, but it was the illegal, pre-draft kind like Tristan Thompson's so he has to go through the workouts to keep thing looking right. I don't think he gives a crap right now.

Sam Amico ‏@SamAmicoFSO
Seems like Warriors (No. 7 pick) are especially high on Ohio State big man Jared Sullinger. In fact, their GM said on record that they are.

I really like Terrence Ross, hope we can land him somehow using our 2nd round picks (maybe in exchange for a late 1st?)
do you think he's worth? great shooter IMO

Tim Chisholm ‏@timpchisholm
As I go back and watch last season’s NCAA games, I believe increasingly that if Raps keep pick Lillard would be very hard to pass up.

Crazy to compare John Henson's measurements to Anthony Davis

How are they the same height (Henson's a little bit shorter), the same wingspan (Henson's is a little shorter), yet Henson has a standing reach of 3 inches more!

Really, Sam Amick? Did they really say they are especially high on Sullinger, or did you ask them if they liked Sullinger and they said yes, which could mean anything and nothing.

That is huge for us. Almost negates the loss of the coin flip!

Henson has longer arms but a skinnier torso.

Hopefully this and someone is high on lamb before us, that would mean someone drops.

Woah, if Cleveland passes on Barnes and if the Warriors do draft Sullinger, that likely means Barnes will be there at 8.

Barnes is 2nd or 4th pick.

Would you be happy if the Raptors drafted... (check all that apply)
