Are all solid. Ideally they should've taken Vonleh, so that Jason Thompson isn't their starting PF.
Yeah Vonleh would of been a good pick,i dont disagree with that at all. But honestly that crop of guards isnt something to write home about. We'll see I suppose

You think Gary Harris is better than Afflalo?

Not right now, but they werent going anywhere with Aaron. Harris is a better defender (coupled with Oladipo) thats a scary duo in that side, and Gordon down low...really solid D.

Harris CAN be better. If his back holds up, he will be a stud. Shot, drive, pull-up. He can do everything on offense. Imo, was the B1Gs best player this year, over Stauskas.

Yeah plus having young legs never hurts. Orlando has some pieces.

He can play D, and he rebounds. He has a full arsenal on offense as well, can score in almost every way. Honestly if he were black he would be a top 3 pick, being honest lol.

McDermott can score in the league. Just a matter if you can put him on the court because he is not quick enough to guard 4s in the NBA. He is a pretty slow guy, but that shot and his moves/arsenal...he can score anywhere.

But hes not better than Faried, Gallinari or Chandler at this point. It makes zero sense for Denver to draft him. Maybe other teams but not Denver, unless they plan on trading Faried like it was rumored

For the hype, crazy quiet and predictable draft.

As I say that, McDermott traded to the Bulls for 16 and 19...

He's athletic enough, and he is crafty which can make up for foot speed. He tested pretty well at the combine. Most wings in the nba aren't creators, wouldn't worry about that at all.

One thing is for sure. Unlike the NFL 1st round, there are plenty of picks that we can 2nd guess, and discuss.

Hmm. Saric is a good player, but not sure why they'd draft a guy that high, just to stash him for at least 2 years.

Looks like LOL at Philly (sigh).

Saric going there (and 18) for Payton? That's what is being thrown out.
