2013 Draft Poll 

Post#1 » by GhostsOfGil » Sat May 25, 2013 6:56 pm

Which player would you like to see the Wizards draft with the 3rd pick?
Mods feel free to lock this if you want to keep the draft discussions condensed. I was curious to see actual poll votes.

This thread seems pretty redundant to me.

Nah. I guess it's okay to dedicate this thread to the bust poll question. I just don't want it to evolve into another thread where we debate draft prospects.

I like this thread, it's just needs to be re-named. Thanks for the links to the prospects.

Seem like a good thread to me. It's different from the draft thread because it talking about bust. Not about who the wizards should pick.need a poll change. But I like it.

No problem. I was prejudiced against Tim Duncan and Chris Paul because of what happened with Kenny Green.

I voted Bennett by mistake i want us to draft Porter, and Bennett will be a bust in my opinion. If Bennett happens to turn out good i will give him credit.

Shouldn't the poll be changed to biggest bust in top 10 (and include Noel and McLemore)?

Didn't Vesely win a plurality of "don't want/don't draft" a few years ago?

Absolutely. We need more names added and the poll needs reset now that it is a bust poll.

And "trade" doesn't fit anymore. Not sure about if "other" still fits or not.

Yeah, that's what I assumed this thread was for . . . so when Ernie drafts Alex Len we can all point to it 3 years from now and say . . . damn, the whole Wiz Board wanted anyone else, preferably Porter who is now an All-Star for . . . somebody else.

At the risk of getting slapped down for creating yet a 3rd thread on this, this one isn't asking the question in the OP that it asks in the title so I'll throw up a thread that does.

Ok, confused by what the purpose of this thread is, are why voting on who we want, or who will bust?

I think he's #1 on most Wiz fans list but IMO he's an unrealistic draft target.

Thanks, if Noel was there @ 3 would you take him? I like Porter or Bennett for the 3rd pick. I'm ok with having three guys below the age of 24 starting because we are not wining a title next year. Just asking about Noel because he seems to be to thin as of today to compete against other centers. It might take 3-5 years to put on enough mass to get on the starting squad.


Just win baby!
