I still don't get why Pistons fans who have been haunted by high-potential-pick-turned-busts for years want the best candidate in the draft to become that...

The Kings continue to discuss a deal with the Rockets involving the fifth overall pick, according to sources.

Sacramento doesn't have a strong sentiment towards any player at this slot and sources believes Geoff Petrie is leaning toward selecting Andre Drummond over Harrison Barnes if the pick is retained.

Houston's latest offer of Kyle Lowry and the No. 16 pick was rejected by the Kings.

Yahoo's Marc J. Spears reports the Kings won't trade away the fifth pick until they are on the clock. According to Spears, Sacramento would like to see Robinson fall to them.

I really like Drummond's pro prospects, but I'd be lying if I didn't say I was concerned with him playing on a team with a PG I don't particularly like.

not his rookie year. i still see him getting 10/8 though. hes going to get cheap drop off passes and garbage buckets.
Maybe if he had a good passer creating for him. Brandon Knight is not that.

This response pretty much shows that you have no real reason for it.

:thumbsup:
I've gave my reasoning multiple times, if you care to go back and read it, be my guest. But I'm not explaining for the 10th time why I want Drummond.

I can't wait till we draft Henson, and everyone is going to say "Rip is mad as fuck right now." Or when Drummond gets drafted earlier than 9.

Both not true, I will not be mad as fuck.

I'll be happy with Henson, just not as happy as I'd of been with Drummond.
I've wanted Drummond since before the NBA season even started.

PJ3 a top ten player in the league?

Even if he works out for whoever drafts him, he's not touching that.
