Following potential 2012 draftees

How the **** did we go from lottery pick to 2nd rounder? Let's disregard that Manu is arguably the best international player after Dirk in the history of the NBA and arguably the biggest steal in NBA history.

Not following. Perhaps had to many drinks tonight. If we have two lottery picks and include Evans that would give us 7 real young guys next year. So i say take a flyer on the best intl player when we pick in the second.

Why Intl? Xeno-lover?
 
There are too many good players in the second round this year to take the chance you find the next Manu.
Maybe Raja gets traded for a second rounder - wouldn't you trade Raja for Darius Miller?

Yeah .. or about 20 other 2nd rounders.
 
Bigger issue, though, is QMiller. He's falling as far as I'm concerned. It's like 2 bad games, followed by 2 okay games, followed by 1 spectacular game .. repeat. Not feelin' it.

Me three. I tune in all excited and then get really disappointed. PJIII looks great though - if only the Jazz could play him at SF.
I quite enjoy watching Baylor play but I think I hate their guards.
 
I also concur with those voicing their misgivings about Barnes. He's frustrating so maybe he falls to the Jazz (doubtful) but right now I think I prefer PJIII. If only he could play SF. Maybe he can. ...?
 
Marshall adding a little scoring to his game also has me questioning. He's still slow but at least he's 6' 4".
Ugh, it's a speedy game though. I'm flummoxed.

Don't think Jones can play SF.

And I would definitely take Barnes ahead of him. Jones has more upside, no doubt, but I'd bet every cent I have that he never reaches his full potential. Barnes probably will, however high that may be.

I'll argue a little

Toni kukoc
Drazen petrovic (who is one of the best)
Vlade divac (I know he played for the lakers and I hate him but he was very good)
Arvidas sabonis

Just to name a few off the top of my head and petrovic in his prime was better then Ginobili.

Because there aren't any lottery talent euros in this draft.
