The Thunder Could Trade Down for Curry

[MapleLeaf]

From hoopsworld.com

Oklahoma City has a Stephen Curry fixation. The Thunder attended all of Curry's home games at Davidson this past season and is looking at him as a potential shooting guard. But they'll almost certainly move down from the No. 3 pick if they decide to take him. Scouts are not only high on Curry's shooting, but also think he can make players better around him. "When you look at that Davidson team, they barely had any other Division I players," said one scout.

After seeing this and Walsh saying the only player he would trade up for would be Thabeet this scares me lol

I dont want either player, and I dont get all this talk about Curry being a playmaker, he struggled playing point for Davidson, idk what everyone else was watching, he turned the ball over too much and isnt the pass first point guard that we need, he's just another Nate Robinson with a better jumper and not by that much.

Plus they don't need another shooter...Durant can already shoot lights out.

But if Curry can be that playmaking PG, that'd be real good.

If they dont take Thabeet, then screw OKC, tbh.

If they want him so badly...just use the effing 3rd overall pick to take him.

Might as well trade down and get another pick considering nobody else is going to take him that early in the draft.

He's gonna be the new juan dixon.

 

[Dice-J]

He'd play SG for OKC wouldn't he? Not PG because they have Westbrook.

 

[Pugz]

He's gonna be the new juan dixon.

So he's going to be a backup comboguard that mainly play SG and can only handle around 15mpg. But I do like that.

 

[The Young One]

Im telling you he is juan dixon part 2. I know this man. Dude is getting real overhyped.

 

[dez]

The fact they say he's a PG/playmaker amazes me, thats enough overhyping right there lol

Dont get me wrong, he is from the city, so I wish him the best, I hope he proves me wrong but since the combo guard has emerged how many have made the transistion from combo to PG?

Deron Williams is the only guy I can think of.

 

[The Young One]

I thought deron was more of a 1 in college. He always seemed to be a poor mans j-kidd in college.

Look at randy foye, look at j-critt and etc its not easy to change positions. Only two i can think off of the top of my head that succeeded has been monta. And d-wade if you considered him a point while at marquette.

 

[.GR]

Guy will be a nice 6th man IMO. Nothing more.

 

[dez]

I guess Williams could be considered a 1, cause I thought of him as a JKidd clone too, but I wouldnt even say Wade did it, cause Travis Diener manned the PG position at Marquette, Monta idk since I never really got to see him play in HS.

 

[The Young One]

I've seen footage of him. He was basically a two guard. Steve Francis could be considered too i guess. Since he played the two at maryland. But a large reason for his success is that he was such a athletic freak.
