I think he could end up going first overall, but if the lottery balls bounced our way and he was on the board when we picked - I'd be open to taking him. He's the one guy I was most impressed with with his interviews. Not what he said per se, but he had a calmness and quiet confidence about him that makes be feel he has "it" and will be a star with superstar potential on the right team.

He's probably #2 on my Pistons Big Board behind only McLemore.

Were you around for Johnny Flynn in 2009?


The only similarity that Burke has with Flynn, is that they are both smaller PGs. Im starting to favor MCW over Burke, again, because MCW is such a rare physical specimen( He's like Grevis Vasquez with elite athleticism). But, at the end of the day, I think both of these players are upgrades over Brandon Knight at the 1 spot.

As for my top 6 predictions;

Noel
Mclemore
Porter
Burke
Oladipo
Zeller

I can see teams desperate for a big offering good value for our pick if Len is still on the board.

Hard to predict anything without draft order.

However if the draft was in order form worst to best I think it would go-

1. Orlando - Noel
2. Charlotte - McLemore
3. Cleveland - Porter
4. Phoenix - Shabazz
5. New Orleans - Burke
6. Sacramento - Oladipo or Michael Carter Williams
7. Detroit - CJ McCollum
8. Wash - Zeller
9. Minn - Len
10. Portland - Caldwell-Pope

I'll bet you that Bazz is drafted closer to #12 than #4. He is going to drop like a rock...

possibly, but that is too low with his skill set & this draft class.
