Nice McNamara recap of day 1. Bullet Points:

* Oladipo measured out like DWade therefore...
* Burke measured bigger than expected and bigger and heavier than CP3 coming out of college. Good agility drills could push him top 3.
* Otto Porter was really skinny. 30 pounds lighter than Granger coming out of college and closer to Corey Brewer who took time to adjust to the league because of being a lightweight.
* Shabazz' measurements are most similar to guys that play SG, not SF
* Gobert moved into top 10 with measurements and good agility drills would put him top 7

quote:

- As of today, I believe the Pelicans Big Board goes: Noel, McLemore, Oladipo, Porter, Len, Burke, Saric, Gobert. Barring somebody coming out of nowhere in individual workouts, it will be one of those guys or a trade. My money has been on Oladipo for over a month now. That could change, however, depending on the results of the lottery on Tuesday.

Wow. That will make some on here want him more than before since his biggest knock was size. Any official measurements on him?

And that will make more on here not want him.

Anybody done more research on him. I've only watched the three or four highlight films and he's huge, but really slow on defense and not that athletic. But he runs better than I thought he would.

People are going to be surprised when he's our pick at 5 or 6. I have to say though, I liked what I've seen and read on him.
