NBA Draft

[Stern]

Davis is gonna be a 20/10 guy for a long time. i can see him winning mvp and dpoy award some time in the future.

[ganja0710]

The players who have future star material in this draft are Davis, Robinson, Beal, and Lamb. The busts waiting to happen are gonna be Barnes and Drummond.

I was positive he was going to light it up this year. Reminded me of Kevin Durant coming out of HS for whatever reason. Was way off, same with Perry Jones too.

Hope Wroten slips or even Q.Miller at this point down to Denver somehow.

Those would be good picks and fits for the nugs- neither might fall- my fav riser Jared cunningham could be had but wroten would fit a lot better with lawson

In my mind there is no question that Cody Zeller will be a better pro then Perry Jones. He has a much better feel for the game. Perry Jones has a weak post game and loves to step back and shoot jumper. If Cody Zeller can become stronger, he will be a very solid C.

i fell like perry has more potential, plus cody will do the same as his brother and go to school for a while.

cleveland desperately needs a wing. jeremy lamb or bradely beal would be the perfect pick for us in my mind. but im not a GM and dont get a chance to scout players properly so we'll see.

<------ Andrew Nicholson would fit so well with the 6ers. The guy is an absolute beast, and he's going to make whatever team takes him happy. Hard worker, brilliant kid and not an ounce of stupidity in his body.

Jeremy Lamb is gonna be really good NBA player. He will thrive under NBA rules. I would take him in the top 4. I wouldn't be surprised if he turns out to be a star.

Pfft. He won't even be the best Jeremy L.

Doron Lamb is a guy I think is being overlooked who will get picked late first round. I think he could wind up being a really good 6th man type player for somebody, he reminds me of Lou Williams.

Also I really like Bradley Beal. He wasn't overly impressive this year but there's just a smoothness to his game that I really like. I could see him being better than Barnes is, he seems like more of a playmaker.

Davis is going to be a force in the league. Crazy long, awesome defender, has a good handle and can hit a 20 footer consistently. If he isn't taken 1 overall, he's the steal of the draft.

You all just dont know a bust when you see one.

Some players are great in college but dont have the tools to make it translate to the pros. For one example, Brandan Wright was great in college, and we saw how well that went.

Davis will at best be a good player in the league, nothing more.

[SilkkTheShocker]

Gilchrist is the most overrated player in the draft. Davis, Barnes, T-Rob, and Beal are all going to be studs. Look out for Terrance Ross also.

So basically the 'JohnnySic' draft evaluation is: do they have a good NBA body? Let me ask you, what makes you think Drummond will be a better pro than Davis?

The Knick fan with the Melo Syracuse avatar talked about this PF from some smaller school in NY State...great footwork and post moves and he has the perfect body for the NBA. Don't know how good he is because his competition and because I've seen very little. But I liked what I saw.

That would be me. I go to school with Drew, he's incredible. This isn't just some bias. I'll just give a few bullet points on him:

-He would have been in some huge conference had he not rolled his ankle/broken his cell phone shortly before a Canadian tournament that would've gotten his recruitment blown up.

-He came into college as a chemistry major and eventually switched to Physics because he needed more time, but he still does all the labs and has around a 3.0 GPA with all the time he has taken off from classes due to basketball.

-His competition? Double and triple teams EVERY time he touched the ball.

-He has the best footwork in all of the land and uses his body EXTREMELY well in the post.

-He has very good shot blocking abilities.

-He can hit the three, as evidenced by his 4/5 from three in the Florida State tournament game.

-He is also EXTREMELY well-spoken and very humble. Works extremely hard and deserves everything he gets.

He just wants to be the one who can say "I told you all!!" in the very slim chance that Davis busts. And if Davis is great, no one will call him out on it because it was so ridiculous since there was no reason to doubt Davis. It's a weak stance to take.

I never seen him play. I got to look him up. What kind of game does he have?
