Official 2013 NBA Draft Thread

That is where you usually get your guys who will carve careers out of doing one or two things very well.  Shooters, defenders, etc.

The more I look at MCW the more I like him.  I think I'd want him over in any other PG in this draft.

 

[elcheato]

I might take McCollum over him and hope his lack of passing as a PG had more to do with the talent around him, but I'd probably agree. I'm not high on Burke at all.

 

[Teagz]

I definitely like MCW more than Burke. If MCW cuts down his TO's and takes better shots he'll be solid in the L. 

 

[Teagz]

Although, I think I like Schroeder more than any of the other PG's tbh

 

[elcheato]

Well first things first he has to fix that jumper of his. There really isn't much of a place in the league for PGs who can't shoot (Obvious outliers like Rondo, but it's hard to stick without one).
 
But I think he will, his mechanics aren't bad.

 

[Teagz]

He took some pretty shitty shots at Cuse, if just takes better shots his percentages will increase. Like you said, the mechanics are there as long as he doesn't force too many he'll be effective enough as a shooter imo.

Why is that?  I'd actually agree, I think he'll be alright but his hype is too big.

 

[elcheato]

Average athleticism, just an alright shooter, not a great passer, not overly quick for a small dude. He's just very underwhelming as a pro prospect in my opinion.

Says the Buckeye fan

 

[elcheato]

I'm a fan of Tim Hardaway Jr. and Glen Robinson III
 

 
Wouldn't even think about drafting McGary though

 

[Teagz]

McGary is a direct product of Burke. He'll struggle mightily this year.
 
 
Little Big Dog will be solid though. Hardaway Jr. can succeed in the league too.

 

[RipCity32]

I really hope the Pistons end up with Shabazz :/

 

[elcheato]

I just read from a Cavs insider that Otto Porter is not in the Cavs top 4. This pleases me.

 

[Mexi]

shit, cheato
you said you made up the kevin love for #1 but there's a report out that they would make that trade

[elcheato]

They (Wolves) probably wouldn't though

 

[RipCity32]

I'm so excited/nervous for the draft. Well I am every season.
But this pick could really influence the Pistons big time.

I really don't think it will

Shut your whore mouth. You're gonna draft Oladipo & like it.

 

[bosoxlover12]

knowing your luck TYO, Bazz will fall to you and you still take McCollum
