The Official 2012 NBA Draft Talk Thread

[tremonthustler1]

Reminds me too much of Anthony Randolph. They even got the same agent.

That same agent reps Biedrins and Klay Thompson.


Perry and Randolph are built similarly but they'll ultimately play different positions

So if the Nets win the lottery they should just replace the Nets lottery ball with the Magic no?

They'd probably have to trade Davis, Lopez and Brooks for Dwight



They probably hope they get the 2nd or 3rd pick just so they can avoid the shyt storm of trading unibrow for Dwight.

That russian gonna merk somebody if they win the lotto and have to give all that up

If Dwight opted out hed be able to play with Deron Brook Brooks and maybe Davis! while having the 2nd best team in the east at least..this nikka a damn fool

On the rise...from the bench to the scorers table.

Undersized, not a pure shooter, Jason Terry ceiling.

Hes 6-4...so is Dwade. Just as athletic and has a better perimeter game now. Can beat anyone off the dribble, can bait fouls off the drive, great off the pick and roll with his Handles. Plus dude has that win or die mentality. Hes a shooting guard scorer at heart..if teams try to make him PG then they are fukkin up. I think kid is gonna be beast.

Wheres the Austin Rivers draft workout video at? We need something to get people talking. There's a lot of doubters. I'd like to see him prove them wrong.

 

[Cliche]

Raptors could really use a scoring 3, but there's nobody in the draft I love for that honestly.

Just don't draft another big and I'll be alright with it.

Austin Rivers looking a lot like a spark plug off the bench...He needs to get a lot stronger...and improve his decison making...That'll only come with experience..

Not nearly as athletic as Wade. Dude's quick with a great handle, but you never saw him explode at the basket the way Wade always does. He actually had trouble finishing at the basket against size cause he isn't that explosive and lacks the strength and frame that Wade came into the league with. I think he'll be ok, but not Wade-like by any means.

Did you just say Austin Rivers is comparable to Dwayne Wade?

[Microfracture]

I feel like the Hornets are gonna win it. 2 lotto picks and some basketball reasons and voila....#1 overall pick
