hmm I don't know. Compared to him Wes Johnson's ball handling skills look elite.
I think I'd rather trade out of the first round.

He is everything Rick Adelman wants out of Luke Ridnour and some. Sure, he's not big, but the kid can score from anywhere and is smart. If he isn't injured this year, he is a small college, household name similar to Steph Curry in 2009. A guy who who is 6' 3", averages 24 points on 50% shooting is clearly doing something right.

Yep, based on where the Wolves are selecting, McCollum looks like the best pick. It would be great if he were a couple of inches taller, but he'd probably be gone by #9 if he had the optimal body. Definitely would take him above any of those bigs who are mocked to be available.

Bullock reminds me of a Martell Webster, and I'd be cool with a healthy Martell Webster at 26.

Thats exactly what I think his worst-case is.

If that's the case then he should be a lottery pick.

I´m along time reader and now want to start to post sometimes.
Sorry for my english, its not my first language.

With the 9th Pick, I hope we can land Oladipo anyway, if not trade the pick with Ridnour/Barea for a starting caliber sg. With the other picks I would like to draft some international prospects. Hoping for Schröder but he will be gone. If we can land Daric, Adetokoubo or Karasev I´m fine. Also in the second round round we should select internationals. let them stay in europe or where else they play and hope one or two aut of the gruop pan out. The Spurs do it every year and it seems like one of three selected players is ready to playafte 2 or 3 years. That dont has to be be a star but a good role player should be there in this group of selscted players.

Hope you unterstand me

Welcome! I understand you more than some others who's native tongue is English. I'd be happy with Oladipo at 9, not sure he's going to make it that far, but I think after the first two or three picks anything can happen.

Agree that one of our backup PG should be used to upgrade the SG, whether its because we missed out or we want to have a veteran competing with the rookie pick. I do think stashing a couple of international players is a good plan too.

Oladipo falling to us mostly depends on who Sac town and the Hornets choose.

If they pick Trey Burke and MCW then Oladipo is ours.

marcus smart can really shake the draft up by declaring.

it seemed liked just yesterday i read about marcus smart having second thoughts.

Yep, Smart is definitely not going to be in this years draft pool. Pool is set.

The ESPN simulator is finally fixed. Zeller is no longer our second option at 9. KCP is now.

Anyone interested in doing a draft board thread?

Shabazz looking more and more like he is going to fall.

DX just posted a new scouting report and scouting video for Caldwell-Pope. Very helpful for people like me who have not seen him play.

damn, watching that vid makes me wonder why we'd be interested in anyone else. Iso D, catch and shoot is stellar, shots off the dribble are stellar...he isn't a slasher, but then again neither is Klay Thompson.

Did you see the end? Has questionable BBIQ/poor shot selection. Nick Young comp?
