Upside wise, yes. His post game is miles ahead of Ryan and many other draftees. Is Ryan still the better fit? ofc bc upside is something that needs work and skill to reach but I THINK Ryan is traded later this summer and we'll need Nicholson to show a little of that upside. I'm guessing we're going for #Summer13 baby!


Something Ryan Anderson fans seem to forget is production=/=upside

Ryan Andersons game does not show a lot of room for upside

If we keep him I hope you're wrong.

I do agree with you though.

Yeah, he wasn't smart enough to luck into a pick.


Well, he did luck into the pick. But he refused to make it.

Say what you want, but Top 10 talent is Top 10 talent.

He's going to win a championship in his rookie season. Lucky bastard!

i'm quietly hoping the Thunder sell that pick for cash, and that we snap it up.

No because Otis would have taken a European hoping he would come over in 3 years :D

Jesus Christ. There's your steal off the draft. Teague to Chicago. Sneaks into the 1st round.

We should trade Duhon and our second round pick for Teague.

this makes no sense because watson was an awesome backup. This means they will probably decline his option.
