| At this point, its just really hard to tell. Our draft pick could be anywhere from anywhere as high as 3 to anywhere as low as 11, it all depends on how we finish the season. With a higher pick I'd like Shabazz Muhammed, Cody Zeller, or Nerlens Noel lower possibly a guy like Trey Burke or Alex Poythress But its way to early to tell Reply Back to Top |

| I firmly believe the FO will go BPA. Assuming we pick in the Top 10, I like these guys by position and think they would fit best with the Pels: PG- Marcus Smart- a guy no one really talks about, but he was one of the best high school recruits in the county. Combo type guard a la Damian Lillard. SG- Ben McClemore- goes without saying. May go #1. SF- Shabazz- a scoring 3 that we covet. PF- Anthony Bennett- my favorite player in the draft. People are saying he can play 3 too, im not sure though. C- Nerlens Noel- He's averaging 11/10/5 right now. He's raw, part Drummond/part AD23. Needs to add bulk but would be scary next to AD23. If we fall out of the top 10 PG- CJ McCollum- his injury is causing him to fall in many mocks. Was a former top 10 talent. Another tweener PG/SG SG- meh. Not sure here. Tim Hardaway Jr maybe. Could be a Jamal Crawford type. I dont really like Archie Goodwin. SF- Glenn Robinson III- Huge sleeper. Could be a great value down in the draft. I think he could contribute right away. PF- James McAdoo- He has falling off the map almost. Was once talked about as a possible #1 pick. I think he will be a better pro than college player. C- Ike Austin- skinny, legit 7 footer. Kind of raw, but could be a nice project. Not really a banger but is intriguing. Reply Back to Top |

quote: Otto Porter. My NBA comparison is to Luol Deng coming out of Duke. Chad Ford on Porter quote: Porter is really good defensively. Coach Thompson III always raves about his defensive prowess. How he always makes the correct defensive rotation. Porter is extremely long at nearly 6'9. I think his length is going to be a real asset defensively in the NBA. He rebounds well, 7.5 per game, despite not being overly athletic. Porter has drastically improved his shooting from a year ago. In fact, he has made 12 of his last 22 3-point attempts. Porter also contributes in other areas on the floor. Averaging 2.5 APG, 1.8 SPG and 1.1 BPG. This post was edited on 2/9 at 12:29 am Reply Back to Top |

| I am big on Anthony Bennett too and would love that fit. I am also big on Hardaway Jr., but we won't be in a spot where we can go after him. He is already what Rivers is supposed to be. Reply Back to Top |
