I find it a bit funny how everyone points out how Sully struggles against longer athletic types of players. Who the hell doesn't struggle against those kinds of players? lol

Such a douche.

"OMG someone said an OSU player won't be good in the NBA..BETTER CALL OUT ANOTHER PLAYER ON ANOTHER TEAM AND POINT OUT HIS NEGATIVES!!"

Robinson will be two times the NBA player Sullinger will be...Robinson's game is built for the NBA, Sully's not so much.

Eh they're practically identical players.

Well based on the odds, Sacramento will have a top 5 pick and I can't see him even being considered that high.

My first instinct was that I just don't see him working playing next to Cousins. Cousins is really better suited as a PF than C in my mind, and their games are too similar(though Sullinger is obviously on paper inferior.)

But I could maybe see them taking a PF anyway, because Chuck Hayes is so awful, they can't possibly continue to have him starting and hope to be contenders.

Lol what?! They're literally the exact opposite.

SacTown does have Jason Thompson. And J.J. Hickson. What they need is a true PG who can distribute. I hate to say it because it's early, but Kendall Marshall would be a solid pick, as would Marquis Teague. They need someone who isn't going to need to score.

Marcus Thornton, Tyreke Evans, DeMarcus Cousins, and to even an extent, Jimmer Fredette, Isaiah Thomas and Jason Thompson are all scorers. Don't see Thornton and Evans both being in their future plans though, but they need a great PG who can run their offense.

JJ Hickson plays for Portland now

Chuck Hayes never averaged more than 10.9 ppg in college. I don't really think they have similar levels of talent.

Yeah the mocks I was looking at had him 6th to the kings

I mean, "if he gets super hungry", what the fuck does that even mean?

Maybe "super hungry" means he'll be absolutely starving if he loses another 25 lbs.

LOL ur such a little bitch. Just like a girl, so thin skinned. On top of that, you can't even see through my point. So simple minded.
First of all, to explain, it wasn't a rip on Robinson. It was a point being made that even a great college player like Robinson, who plays above the rim, gets his shots blocked. Because thats all I keep hearing about Sullinger, like he is the only player this happens. to.
But even that that, Robinson is certianly more athletic than Sully, no question. But he doesn't YET have the skills that Sullinger has. Sullinger has more moves around the basket AND has a much better looking shot facing up to the basket as well. I believe both have their major questions. And I believe both will do just fine in the NBA. Does Robinson have a bigger upside? Certianly he does. But that is no gaurantee on anything. Again, how good both end of being..is a quesiton on how much each of them continues to work hard and get better.
