Official Washington Wizards 2013 offseason thread

[dennis roadman]

Oladipo is an undersized 3 without handles. The Nigerian thing () was a thing I thought about but I think dude is a rotation guy on a good team.

Iirc, he half Nigerian tho

but suge knight said he was gone be MJ part 2

Let me help you out since you all over the place. What the Wizards and any team needs is this man.
Victor Oladipo 2013 NBA Draft Workout - Projected Top 5 Pick - Indiana Hoosiers - YouTube
He is the next Michael Jordan. And if he doesn't live up to that, he'll still be good enough to be a hall of famer. The Wizards NEED a backup guard more than any other position. At small forward they have Webster/Ariza/Singleton

fukk having A.J.Price for another year and Garret Temple isn't going to be that SPARK the bench needs. They need a James Harden type player for the bench. Olidipo can be that, and possibly more. If he's there, we take him OVER Porter. And I'm a Georgetown fan when I'm not out in the cali kickin it with the homies :suge:

Maybe the next Jason Richardson, but I don't see Jordan

Just say you don't believe the draft is about BPA just whoever is left at a Postion of need

Is SF really a Postion of need anyways???? We got Webster and ariza


U wanna draft for a year from now?

Webster is a free agent and Ariza is on a one year deal.

Oladipo can't run the 2nd unit. We need a 3rd guard who is a LEAD guard off the bench along with a SF prospect and a big man prospect.

If Oladipo had handles and passing ability to go along with his efficient scoring and excellent defense, then I'd be all in to take him at #3 . Hell, I'd still probably take him at that spot because he would be the best available and I'd listen to offers. If someone wanted him bad enough, I'd fleece them for everything I can get.

 

[Big Suge Knight]

Since when can Oladipo play PG? A third guard has to be able to play PG and SG and run the second unit.

So your saying Oladipo doesn't have good handles? Do you even watch Basketball? And go check any mock draft board, they all have Oladipo as a combo guard who if he improves his handling could be a great PG in the league.
Then the video I posted shows you the work he put in, his handles are exceptional and his style of play is a perfect fit for this team imo. Your free to have your opinion though :shake:

but suge knight said he was gone be MJ part 2

They was calling him that for a large chunk of last season. And his defense on opposing guards is the best I've seen coming out of college since *insert player*
What really sold me on him was this article (can't find it, but this one is saying the same stuff with less detail)

^^ Everyone peep that just to see where I am coming from ^^

Now your back to saying we need this, we need that. We NEED Oladipo, and he could run that 2nd unit better than AJ fukkin Price. I'll take Ola over Temple. I envision him being James Harden for us, but it all depends on coaching. Popovich would make it work, not sure if Wittman can develop players. I've only seen young players regress under wittman. Vesely, Shelvin Mack, T.Booker, C.Singleton. Players with experience like Temple/nene/etc did well. And personally, I love Otto Porter, but he wouldn't be shyt in DC because of that reason. He wouldn't beat out Singleton, Ariza, Webster. And I don't see him being a spark for the bench either. Wasted pick if we did that imo

I've watched enough of Oladipo to know that he needs a lot of work on his handles to compete at the PG spot in the NBA.

And Webster's free agent status and Ariza's one year deal should have no barring on drafting him. We've lacked a SF prospect for years now. Sure, Ariza and Webster are still young themselves relatively but we need either Porter or Noel to be that third guy to go with Beal/Wall.

Ok, I'm startin' to see the light
@Mr swag, I , ur original list was correct, my bad for changin' it. Orlando and Cleveland will sign McLemore and Noel, so I'm now on the Oladipo wagon. We have Webster and Singleton @ the 3, should re-sign Martell, maybe Ariza, if it's affordable and reasonable, and develop Chris better. Oladipo has the higher ceiling, while potentially bein' the combo guard off the bench, w/o sacrificin' defense, and he's been improvin'. With all that said tho, I'd bet any amount of money this team'll draft Porter

Singleton is a horrible offensive player. He should have no barring on who we should draft. Neither should Webster though I'd like him back.

 

[dennis roadman]

let's pause all the draft speculation for a minute and talk about the coaching situation.

....

i really dont know shyt about it, how long is randy expected to stay/how soon can we get a better coach in here, and who would that be?

 

[BlackFeet]

I HIGHLY doubt Wittman makes it past this upcomin' season. If he leaves, I believe either Cassell or Nate McMillan would take his place.

 

[dennis roadman]

the question is why he'd even be there this season.
