I think it is starting to be inevitable that we take Henson, regardless of what is available. Which sucks cause Perry Jones could be available.
Dude, I love Perry but I think Henson is a better fit for your team.

with our roster and lack of future we want a player that can be an all-star for us.

Maybe so, but I am WAY too leery that Henson will not be able to fill out. His frame doesn't seem like it can fill out. He is about as skinny as Davis, but you can tell Davis' frame will be able to fill out MUCH better than Henson. I also would much rather take a gamble on Jones, who could have All-Star potential.

But if at the end of the day, we end up with Henson, I will not be too disappointed. I'd just rather take a gamble on Jones.

Henson is like a good compliment player that could send a borderline playoff team into the playoffs (eventually). But we are not at that point yet. I want some killer youth talent.

Dumars should know he can't fuck up any worst than the Darko draft, so he might as well take another gamble lol.

I just feel like defensively Henson could do much more for ya'll. I'm a huge Perry fan but he doesn't go after it on defense like he should. I feel like it would take more for ya'll to motivate Perry than to work with Henson. I'd even say Sully is a good option for you guys next to Monroe

I don't know why you don't like Henson, he'd be a great fit next to Monroe


I'd love for Henson to be on Boston, but he'll be long gone

I do like Henson. But I'm afraid he isn't going to fill out at all.

I think Henson would be a great pick for Detroit if he was in the late lottery. I think at 9 he might be a bit of a reach but you have to take the guy who's going to fit your team the best and I think Henson is just that.

The only other guy who I could see as a better pick for Detroit is Meyers Leonard.

I like Sully the best for Detroit. I just feel like he has a toughness that you guys could use in the post with Monroe. I just like that pair lol

Toughness, sure, but their games are WAYYY too similar. They need a defensive presence next to Monroe.

Yeah I can't argue with that, I mean either of the two would work for them. Especially with the team they have now

Didn't Drummond say people don't think he loves the game or plays hard because he doesn't beat his chest, yell, and shit like that?
