Official 2013 NBA Draft Thread

[Pugz]

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

id prefer dipo lol

 

[The Young One]

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

I want Bazz or Zeller..We'll probably take Kelly O

 

[RipCity32]

If Dipo fell I'd like it. As long as we don't take a big or McCollum I'll be happy though. Not to keen on Bennett either.

 

[RipCity32]

However I am starting to come to grips with the fact we are going to end up with Zeller, Len, or McCollum.
Will be cool to draft a backup big when you having glaring perimeter needs, and have been to the lottery 4 years in a row now. Cause you know, we have that luxury to draft backups.
Or another combo guard. To give us the shortest backcourt in the NBA.

Dumars should be fired on the spot if he takes one of those 3.

i really cant see him doing that, and thats saying a lot lol. i think he knows thats. hed be better off dealing it.

 

[elcheato]

Zeller is going to be a steal late in the lottery.

 

[RipCity32]

That's how I feel about Shabazz. Really think he ends up being one of, if not the best, player from this draft.

 

[elcheato]

Eh, I don't, unless the Cavs draft him.

hes so one way its scary.

 

[RipCity32]

Think he could develop to be a solid defender. But will be a gifted scorer regardless.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Opinions on Shabazz are all over the place.  I've seen comparisons to Nick Young, Josh Howard, Michael Redd, CJ Miles, Latrell Sprewell and Paul Pierce. 

 

[bosoxlover12]

Josh Howard and Michael Redd are almost polar opposites, too

I like Redd comparison.

 

[Pugz]

I like Redd comparison.

meh. i mean at number 8 hes probably the best option unless someone else slips. but on this team, even with us lacking a scorer, hes not the best option. we cant rely on a rookie to take us to the next level so wed likely sign a player and have off the bench. can he handle that? idk.

Sign Iggy, draft Shabazz

iggy wont be worth the money on this young team.

I think what Pugz is referring to is that he literally does nothing but score.  He doesn't rebound, he doesn't get assists, he doesn't turn you over, he doesn't block shots.  He just scores.

PG:
Knight
 
SG:
Stuckey
English
 
SF:
Singler
Middleton
 
PF:
Villanueva
Jerekbo
 
C:
Monroe
Drummond
Kravstov

 
I think the Pistons could draft any of the point or wing positions and it would be a good pick.  MCW, McCollum, Caldwell-Pope, and Saric would probably be the top of my board.  Before Bazz.

yes. mind reader, you are.

as a scorer and nothing else, when his shot isnt falling her going to do nothing but bad.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Which is exactly why I think he'll fall come draft day.  I think he'll still be a lottery pick but not a mid lottery like the Pistons.
