lol, no. Learning from Bogut and developing slowly>Getting thrown to Wolves alongside Monroe for a kid in dire need of development

Golden State would actually be a good fit for Drummond, I don't think they'll pick him though.

I almost want the Pistons to not draft Drummond because of the over-exaggeration of Drummonds abilities.

Drummond is not God. And, if he is actually as good as people here as people make him out to be. There is no way he makes it past the top few picks.

All we're saying is he's the defensive big man we need next to Monroe...Nobody is saying he's the next Howard or Amare...And don't say God's name in vain...I'll be happy if he averaged 6pt, 5rebs and 2blks during his rookie season... It's the block stats that would make me happy...

It is good entertainment. Hindsight is 20/20. I'm certain we all had picks we hated and ended up being wrong about. I know I was excited when Detroit took Brandon Knight a few years back. Obviously, that wasn't such a steal after all.

Didn't think that Andre was going to drop past the #5 spot.
Thank you, Cavs!

Drummond proved me all wrong!!!

Anyways, Drummond would have done well at Golden State playing alongside David Lee.

This thread reminded me of one of those movies where the dorky guy has a secret crush on the hottest girl in school but he doesn't have a chance with her. Somehow by the end of the movie he is dating her.
For the first time in my life I realized that I was truly happy.......then I remembered I was drunk.
