What would you give up to draft Anthony Davis?

[zbone]

After reading a bit and watching few games it IMO he will have a tough rookie year and we may be in a better position to grab him later on like we did with Favors. He will get bullied by likes of Griffin and Favors and Millslapped by likes of our own Paul and Bosh. But potential is there, no questions.

I'd be willing to give up a lot. It'll be interesting to see who gets the #1 pick - then I can look at their needs and see what might get it done. Y'know, like do they want vets (Jeffy, Millsap) or young guys (etc.).

This.… it's hard to determine if we could trade for the pick when we don't know who has it.

But I would be willing to give picks, Paul and Kanter!

Bobcats most likely will have the pick, in which cases its basically ours. Here's what we do. we get our hands on Kwame Brown. Micheal Jordan LOVES Kwame Brown. Maybe get Kwame in the gym, polish him up a little bit get a little muscle tone, shoot some slick vid of him hitting lay ups. Send micheal the footage. Then we say straight up Kwame for the First overall pick. Micheal Jordan will stare into the distance, phone in hand "Kwame Brown is not worth wasting one first overall pick on, but 2" he will think his mind racing with images of Kwame Brown lifting the O'brien Trophy over his head, Micheal Jordan riding on his shoulders. Done deal he will whisper, placing the phone down. Done deal.

You never know what will happen after he gets picked. I am still convinced Greg Oden would have been just as good as dwight howard had he not had 39 knee surgeries. Maybe Davis never amounts to anything, maybe he becomes the next kareem abdul jabbar.

 

[Fishsticks]

I will say Davis does appear to have the highest bust potential since Kwame Brown (if you don't consider yourself a prophet on Oden's knees).

He will be anything but a bust, nor will he be once in a decade IMO. He will be a very good player. You can't really compare him to anytone.

No offense to PKM and all of the other Davis fans, but I am not too hyped on Davis just yet. Yeah, he has athleticism through the roof, but so does Favors (not to mention how much skinnier Davis is). If I had the first pick, I'd trade down, IMO. Curious to see how Davis does in the NBA

Having the right mind and right heart is undervalued in rating prospects. Fire is as much a talent as almost anything, AND he has the physical talent.

I think he'll figure out offense with time. In addition to strength. Rick Pitino called him Bill Russell. Not the craziest thing I've ever heard.

 

[BluesRocker]

You fools are going to be eating crow doubting this guy. Davis will be an absolute stud. Guaranteed!


Haha. It's Hilarious some people even saying he has bust potential. What are you watching? I don't get it. This one should be the easy pick.

Vastly underrated.

I would give up Cy and BluesRocker for Davis. Oh, and I would throw in Miles just to sweeten the deal that much more.

What's that Orange jello? You used to give rub and tugs for a living?

How many rub and tugs would you give for Davis? Hey I think I heard PKM was looking for a massage.

Real classy Orange Jello, real classy.

 

[squareinthecircle]

Bobcats will definitely get the 1st pick. I feel like going to Nevada and making a big bet on that one- Stern is too easy to predict and Jordan is not happy.

You didn't think it was the slightest bit funny? I find that hard to believe.
