Hotel Vitale, who would be your pick at #8? You've obviously done your homework on a lot of these prospects so is it possible to get your opinion on the usual suspects we discuss on here?

Bazz, MCW, KCP, Burke, Zeller, Schroeder, Saric (did I forget anyone?)

I'd rather gamble on Carter-Williams than go with McCollum. I don't see the Steph Curry comparison at all. I know there are some staunch MCW supporters on here. I'm not a huge fan, but I'd handily take a 6'6 PG that can pass over a 6'2 SG.

The Greek might have the highest upside in the draft, a 18 y/o 6'9.5 point forward w/ 7'3 wingspan and still growing? He might need to stay in Europe a year or two but he can end up being really, really good imo.

MCW is 2.5 inches taller than CJ, but I guess you can round it up to 4, lol.

Looked it up, you're correct. My stance remains the same.

McCollum is probably my least favorite pick of the potential "top 10" guys we're seeing. I bought into the hype a little a month or so ago, and have just soured on him.

Its easily Shabazz or McCollum over MCW for me, its a right fit thing. Two can shoot, one cant.

Its been said to death around here & it will continue to be.

I think the 7 to 9 range is good for him. I could SAC wanting him as well as Minny. I think Detroit needs him most. I look at the Drummond draft factor and potential when i look at Muhammed.

Really? Wow. Noel, McLemore, Porter, Oladipo, Bennett, Len are 6 that seem much, much better prospects without debate.

Then when I compare Bazz to Burke, Zeller, KCP, MCW, McCollum, I don't think he's even in that group. So that put's him at 12, at least in my opinion.

Shabazz is definitely in that 2nd group.

Additionally there isn't an ocean of difference between the first & second groups w/ respect to question marks.
