Jennings is the biggest question mark in the top 10. I have never even seen him play a game but cant help but think he may be the next Sebatian Telfair.

If Terrance Williams ever improves his shooting he will be ok.

The only plus NBA quality that I can see is range on his jumper.

He did very well against big time competition in the NCAA tournament. Ask Georgetown.

I think Williams will be one of the four best players from this draft, along with Griffin, Evans, and Hudson. DeRozan has a chance too and Rubio might be something in a few years.

Since when is Georgetown big time? The guy is a terrific college player. His game and body does not translate unless you see him on a lottery team in a World b Free role.

DeRozan stinks. Guy is a brick layer. Used to overpowering guys and being a better athlete. That's not going to happen. Williams is a good player who can be real good if he ever hits open shots consistently.

WTF? Was he hiding in the back or something? Earl Clark can play but doesnt show up a lot.

Cannon Shell 06-25-2009 08:03 PM

The new Louis Orr- Austin Daye

ANd I was berated by a poster on this board
about Flynn.

I shall not forget this.
I am very sensitive.

Cannon Shell 06-25-2009 08:26 PM

Holiday may be the steal of the draft.

You know its a weak draft when Jonny Flynn is the number 6 pick

I did not think it was that weak up top till
I saw Austin Daye drafted so high. I guess
Detroit thinks he is T. Prince. I dont get that pick.

Stop it with that.
Westbrook syndrome has taken hold.

Holiday sucks.
Georgetown was a top 10 program at that time weren't they?
Did Minnesota really pick a third point guard?
I like Maynor but I don't know if I like him for Utah.

Sure Curry's body doesn't fit the NBA mold but I'm quite sure his game does.

Holiday was forced to play out of position, he may be as good as the guys in the lottery.

Georgetown has hardly overwhelmed anyone with NBA talent lately.

We are in the backup section of the draft.

Because curry can shoot it is assumed that his is an NBA game. Think that Monte Ellis and Stephen Jackson will be happy giving Curry 20 shots a game? He is bust material. The fact that Dick Vitale loves him is another negative.

Victor "meat" Claver

pgardn 06-25-2009 08:40 PM

We now enter the territory where I lose touch.
Holliday needed to stay in Los Angeles another year
where people like each other. He is very sensitive like
I am.

Cannon Shell 06-25-2009 08:42 PM

This is a terrible draft. When portland trades up to 22 to take a guy who wont play for them for a few years that says that there aint much out there.
