Huh? Josh Smith was a terrible shooter. Scratching my head on that one.


*Looks at stats...*

Yeah, you're right. Reed can be comparable to Josh Smith right now.

If the Kings take him at 12 I’d be alright with it (depending on who’s still in the board).

I said 26 earlier, but I'm very happy with taking him at 14 if the Kings don't screw it up for us. :)

Cs coming out of the draft with Bey at 14 & Reed at 26 would be ideal for our front court defensive depth, imo. But, if I had to choose, I think I'd go Reed first, then whoever we get at 14. I wanted NAW/Clarke/Claxton last draft and was OK with not getting NAW if it meant getting the other 2. Obviously, I got the o-fer instead. :cry:

Paul Reed has climbed my own personal big board. He's just a can't miss prospect in my eyes. Length, mobility, defense, offensive upside. I don't know how he's not a lottery pick but it's complete nonsense that most mock drafts don't even have him going in the 1st rd.


Dude can guard all over the floor and he has the possibility to become an offensive player as well. There at tools there. But defensively he’s legit right now.

Kinda reminds me of Darius Myles with a knack for rebounding.

Is he European?

King’s will not take Reed at #12.

Not Yo Ham Lakers!

Damn... give this man top shelf prize. D-Miles had a better shot but that’s a legit comparison. Miles was before his time and a tad leaner (17/18<20) but damn TB that’s a killer comp. Like nailed it but in this weak era so PR gonna kill
