***NBA Draft Thread***

[Clones85']

This isn't the NFL draft, first round picks aren't all going to be starters. Go back and look at some older drafts, if you get a late lottery pick that becomes a solid rotation guy, it's a good pick.

You also said he could score 15-20 a game. What 7/8 guy in the NBA scores that much? Nobody. I will be shocked if Jimmer amounts to much in the NBA. This isn't the Mountain West conference. He isn't going to get 30 shots a game. I hope I'm wrong as I like Jimmer

Lakers have two more picks and if I saw right I think Portland may have rights to pick 57. So there are still chances!

Jimmer is a shorter Adam Morrison.

Not looking good for DG, but I am not an NBA draft expert.

Xavier Henry a bust? He has played one season. Let's not get ahead of ourselves pal.

Yeah and didn't do much. Didn't know you were such a Jayhawk Lover.

Portland just got Raymond Felton in a trade so that hurts his chances there

DG has worked out for every team, just not individual workouts.

I said he could score 15-20 on any given night, not that that is what he was going to average, I'd bet he averages somewhere around 8-10.

at this point it is better for ISU if Diante gets drafted, but probably better for DG if he goes undrafted. None of the teams left have any PG spots open and whoever takes him will probably be going BPA and not have a spot for him to play right away or at least compete.

 

[BCoffClone125]

Come on DG, you deserve this moment!

 

[CycloneErik]

Portland also acquire Raymond Felton so there is their starting PG.

Touche.

Hoiberg needs to call up his contacts that he mentioned in all the interviews!

Jimmer is a shorter Adam Morrison.

No he isn't. Jimmer at least has above average strength and a good handle. Morrison was incredibly polished but lacked the body and athleticism fo make it against NBA players. In college he could overcome it, just not the NBA.

What a tease.. I thought he was gonna say Diante!

 

[gocubs2118]

DeAndre is way too close to Diante!!!

 

[IcSyU]

That was just cold.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Got a weird feeling about Orlando

 

[azepp]

Got all excited for a second there.

 

[Tre4ISU]

Oh man, he had me there. I would have gone nuts.

 

[Cy's Taxi]

They said DeAndre, and my heart jumped thinking he pronounced the name wrong... man....
