Following potential 2012 draftees

[Dr. Jones]

Marshall. I'm convinced that Favors needs a pure PG. Marshall will complete The Five. PKM seems sure there isn't a good pure PG coming out in a while.
I don't like Barnes' BBIQ from the games I've seen of him.

Yes. There is no obvious pure point anywhere in the future. I have NEVER seen that before.

So question.. if you had one pick and had to choose between the following players, who do you take?

Marshall
QMiller
Barnes
PJones3
Lillard

If Barnes falls that far you take him and trade him for a pg

Sounds too scary to be true, but I'll take your word for it right now.

All the decent PG's are combos. One thing that should be pointed out is that the game of basketball is progressing toward positionless bb. Teams are more concerned with putting 5 guys on the court that are long, athletic, can dribble, shoot, pass, rebound, and defend. Just get the biggest guys you can that can do everything.

I think PGs always emerge, but I don't think the 2013 emerging PGs will end up leading the nation in scoring or breaking any major assist records.

Barnes with out even batting an eye lash. He is just what the doctor ordered. In the flex offense Barnes is going to be a decent player

For me it's really Barnes vs. Marshall. Tough call. I'd rather have Barnes, but I think in a couple years we'll see 30 teams fighting over 10 PG's.

I am still hesitant on Marshall. With that being said, Marshall>Barnes everyday.

I think if you can draft Barnes, you can trade your way to Marshall-ville and pick up some things along the way, even though it's risky.

I certainly would be rooting if we could land both without giving away any of our core.

 

[trigg3r]

Barnes for me. I remember us all cursing his name last year when he decided not to enter the draft. Especially when we moved up.

Interesting tidbits.
