y u no pick?

 

[elcheato]

It's a tough decision

 

[Pugz]

im gonna shake things up with the second pick. its open for trades!

 

[Pugz]

number 15 up for grabs!

 

[ZigZag]

thank you all for letting ThRob fall into my lap

 

[Hurricane Season]

Eh, Robinson is a safe pick, but he's your classic high floor/low ceiling prospect.

I like the Shareef Abdur-Rahim comparison for Robinson though. If he can put together that kind of career, I'll eat my words on this one.

 

[elcheato]

Nothing about T-Rob's ability screams low ceiling to me. Legit size, great athlete, has some kind of mid range jumper, showed the ability to score with his back to the basket in college, great rebounder.

I love Thomas Robinson.

 

[Pugz]

i love trob too. he was who i wanted if detroit was shitty enough to not get the number 1 but still had a top 5. we suck. hes gonna have a real good career.

As far as the Hornets are concerned, he was my #2 guy behind Davis.

In all honesty, when I think about the NC game the effort he was playing with was just incredible.

R.I.P. Harrison Barnes

 

[bosoxlover12]

I don't really see Barnes being a good fit, with Batum on the roster


Maybe Toronto ships Calderon with #8 to move to #6, to take Barnes. Then Portland takes Jared Sullinger #8, and if he's still there, Dion Waiters at #11

why the fuck would they take sullinger when they have lma?

 

[Elite]

There is no good fit for Portland at 6 so I just went with the perceived BPA

 

[bosoxlover12]

Different type of bigs. Sully would play C most likely

 

[Elite]

Jared Sullinger would get absolutely raped as a 5 in the NBA.

 

[bosoxlover12]

I agree, but a LOT of sites list him as a center.

 

[The Young One]

I love Thomas Robinson.

My homie

 

[Hurricane Season]

Beal is going to be one busy motherfucker.
