Following potential 2013 draftees

I freakin love Randle. That is all.

yeah. presuming andrew wiggins, Jabari Parker and Andrew Harrison are locks for 1,2,3. and any of those 3 (you can include James Young and Aaron Harrison if you want, they fit the 2/3)

would you trade Hayward and our pick in the 20's e to go into the top 10 for vonleh randle gordon harrison young. i would for randle.

i like to use player comparisons for measurments, i find it to be a fun excercise.

aka prototype 2, i measure against dwade. 2/3 spreewell. 3/4 anyone 6'8+ 7' wingspan works, 4 derrick favors, Dirk Type 7's, 5s are individual basis as are pure 1's in my book. sure i missed something oh, 4/5's enes kanter.

Interesting. I like that. I just hate the noob thing of "who do they play like" .. when it's so hard, with so many variables, to find a comp for most kids..

Disclaimer: I don't hate the question, I totally get the question .. I just hate being put in the spot to 'create' a player that another player plays like .. when it's VERY rarely an adequate comparison.

yeah its easily misconstrued, like the 4/5 thing for kanter some may see that as not having a real position, i feel he can dominate at 4 or 5, also hes kind of got some dirk type 7 going to, maybe hes actualy a legit 5, id endorse that. but for measurments on 4/5s ill use kanter, he is a good example to judge the rebounding skill vs 4/5s as kanter clearly is a rebounding savant.

what do you think about packaging our current wing players, with draft picks. to hand pick in the top 10? IE Hayward S+T + our draft pick(s)+ other replacable assets for Vonleh or Young

Your words are like candy to my brain.

I think next year's top 7 is so special I'd be willing to do a lot, for sure. Before I'd give up a Burks or Hayward I'd want to see the kids play (which we'd be able to do), but I'd give up this year's two picks to just sniff the top 10 of next year. 1 - 7 next year will prove to be one of the top 3 all time.

im thinking 03 type draft, id say better. if this kid vonleh can shoot how im lead to believe idk what i can say about him, he looks like a cross between tyreke evans and perry jones with major attitude. and if he can shoot.... i dont want to get stuck on 1 player, honestly im thinking this class is better than 03.

this guy is in the bottom of the top 10... ?

someone please humor me on Trading up for Trey burke this year vs trading up for Kasey Hill next year.

id compare kasey hill whos a true 1. to be a mashup of allen iverson/ricky rubio/lillard/jennings and hes clearly a floor general. i plan to judge this kid (and harrison) vs the D.Rose CP3 Gold standard, thats laughable with burke imho

I said the exact same thing about 5 pages back.

i missed one, 1/2's deron. because he can dominate at both, not because hes not a pure 1, (i have ALWAYS preferred cp3 and invite anyone to debate whos better)

john wall fits as a 1/2 in my book, the gold standard to me in 1/2's are Walt Frazier and Deron, or if its 1 player Oscar Robertson

EDIT; Burks i veiw as a 1/2 not the grade of the players mentioned whatsoever but hes got a high learning curve, imo. and most importantly for 1/2's hes not reckless.
