I actually ran into LaVine after the draft at his draft party in NYC. He seems like a good dude who has a$$hole tendencies which from a personality standpoint is good for the team.Yeah, but he realized his arms are too short to try all that finesse shyt here in the US, he hit the weights and turned into a Bully
By the way, eventually you'll reluctantly embrace that young Mulatto you drafted as the future of your team![]()

But he's not a basketball player. It's like drafting Usain Bolt and going "but he's faster than any of these guys in this draft"

Brandon Roy is on the University of Washington's staffI don't agree, he was Mr. Basketball for his state in HS, he just seems to be a late bloomer as opposed to someone that isn't a basketball player. Your coaching staff needs to get him to drop the idea of being a PG, and develop him as an SG that can run the offense in spots, bring Brandon Roy back to mentor him.
Give him a defined role as an SG and I think he develops, his mindset needs to be 70% attack, 30% setting up others.
Now if my Bucks could just tank, draft Okafor and Hakeem volunteer to work out with him as well.![]()

but I don't think Flip has intentions of using LaVine anywhere other than SG, but if he trades for a Klay Thompson for example, he just used his "home run pick" on a 15 mpg player at best
Breh. The kid is talented and has potential but after you put me on Okafor, I believe that's the next piece we need. We have athletic wings that can score, now we need our anchor.Mudiay is who the Bucks would probably draft.

Okafor is going to be great on offense, but he's going to be like Boogie on defense where you need to have a defensive PF next to him. With Parker being played at the 4, you'd have a terrible frontcourt defensively with him and Okafor.
Hmmm. Didn't consider that. Any other big man prospects in '15 that are worth looking at?
