Varejao, #24, and a future pick for #7 and a bad contract.

Make it happen imo.

Bieds or RJ

What the hell does GS want with Andy?

 

[elcheato]

Beats me

Apparently Henson looked great in that huge workout in Detroit today.

The Bucks are trying to move up in the draft.

Sources indicate that Milwaukee, in need of frontcourt help, is targeting two players: Andre Drummond and John Henson.

Drummond is expected to be off the board when the Bucks pick 12th, while Henson is slotted to go between 9 and 14.

@deryNBA: Source tells me Perry Jones did well at todays #Pistons workout. Doesnt mean anything in big scheme, passing along some info.

Sounds like Henson was the big standout in the Detroit workout. Mock Draft 9.1 coming in 3, 2, 1 ...

i guess other rumors floating around is that we really want to move gmoe to the four so idk who we'll go in the draft.

 

[The Young One]

Please don't take PJ3..I want him in Philly

 

[RipCity32]

Pretty much set in stone that it's either Drummond or Henson.
But if someone trades above us to take the both of them, LMAO.

Still got my fingers crossed for Drummond though.
Unless we get Drummond, Monroe would stay at the 5. So IDK why we see him as a 4.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

The Bucks are one of the teams that have talked to the Hornets about moving up, Phoenix, Boston, Orlando and Houston are the others.

to be honest, the more i read about drums the more im scared lol. i know hes going to take time and the least i expect from him is maybe 10/10/2 which isnt bad but not what id love lol

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Calhoun said it could be five years for Drummond.

 

[RipCity32]

Worth the risk. Team isn't going anywhere, anytime soon.

Imagine GMoe, Knight, Drummond at their fullest potential.
Now imagine Gmoe, Knight, and Henson.

That's what does it for me.

 

[The Young One]

If they hit..I could see PJ3 and Drummond being FRANCHISE guys though. But they also could be colossal failures.

 

[Pugz]

trust me, the potential for him makes me really pumped. but he could get really frustrating.

 

[RipCity32]

Can't be any worst than watching the current roster out there. I don't think Henson puts us anywhere close to over the top with the current roster, but Drummond could in a few years. Like I said, I view Henson more as like a glue player. Like a Rasheed during his Piston years almost. The missing piece. But we don't have enough good players to need that missing player. Might as well go for a homerun with Drummond. Worst case scenario we have another lottery pick next year lol. And Dumars gets fired.

If I were the pistons..I'd make sure he'd work with Hakeem the GOAT every summer..Drummond with a summer or 2 of Hakeem's coaching :spiderdance:
