What's new

Following potential 2013 draftees

Time to get on the Schroeder bandwagon? Will he rise out of our range like Burke & maybe McCollum?

Schroeder seems really similar to Kabongo to me. Both speedsters with little shooting ability.

Will be interesting to see if he can pwn PKM's boy though this Saturday.
 
The Blazers have a great starting lineup. Their holes are on the bench. They need depth at every position. They will draft BPA and not really think about positional need.

?? You do know Hickson is not coming back right?? With Leonard starting with Aldridge - can you call that a "great starting lineup"?
 
anyone else think goodwins game reminds them of sprewell's?

Yes, I've been saying that for six months at least. I really liked Sprewell and that's why I like Goodwin---similar athleticism, similar edge and toughness. Sprewell made 1st team All NBA.

Yes, two potential (actually 1, since the other is an All-Star) All-Stars and two wings who are both known for their defense and 3pt shooting ability. The only weak link is the center, and he is only considered a weak link because of lack of experience.

Then you go to the bench and there is a sharp drop off in talent.

Portland knows they have the worst bench in the league....well, along with the Lakers and Magic.
 
All correct. I cannot believe that Austin would go 21 in almost any draft, let alone this woeful pot of crap of a draft.

But at 14? I don't know. Depends on who's on the board. I don't love McCollum but team needs are just an OVERWHELMING consideration with this team. I feel like MCW OR him will be available and you just grab whoever's left.

Honestly, this draft is stacked in big men. Tyler Zeller got picked 17th overall last draft, there are a good 3-5 big men who are better than Zeller, but will probably get drafted after the 17th pick.
 
The team that seems keen on getting a good shooting guard is Minnesota, although they're a team that should take BPA across a number of positions. McCollum is probably somewhere on their radar.
 
lillard, maynor
Mathews, Barton
Batum, claver
Aldridge, Jeffries, freeland
Leonard

that is who Portland has under contract next year. Barton is playing well. maynor is a RFA so I added him. center is what they need more then anything. they are going to let Babbitt walk.
