I think the Hornets might be high on Doug McDermott for the 9th pick. Nothing firm, but an indication.

Damn. I hope not. McDermott could score in college, no doubt. But like many, I'm not sure how he's going to transition to the pros. I guess he would at least be that perimeter scorer that we need, and maybe if Clifford can scheme around Al Jefferson on defense, he can scheme around McDermott's defensive issues too.

He was a part of the thug-a-nomic Creighton team that tried to hurt Henson and succeeded at breaking Marshall's wrist. no thanks. I hate him for just being on that team, plus I don't think he's capable of scoring the way he did in college and he's not that quick so his defense is suspect. Maybe @24, but NOT @9.

Not at the top of my list but I wouldn't hate the pick. Depends on who is there. I don't want another developmental big man. 

 

Positives: He is a proven scorer in a variety of ways. Can really shoot from 3, would help expand spacing on the court. Is very good coming off screens and shooting quickly. Willing to post up and has ability to use both hands on hook shots with multiple post moves and fakes. Has a good fade away shot (looks much like Dirk with leg kick) to help make space on post spin jumper. High effort guy that works hard. Good size at 6'8"

 

Negatives: Athleticism and defense are the obvious problems that cannot be overlooked. Very low steal rate is troubling. Can he defend at NBA level? Can he create space on offense to get his shot off without screens. Still a questionable ball handler even though it has improved a lot since his first college years. 

 

I am not sure what he could translate into, at worst I see Kyle Korver and I could live with a great sharpshooting SF/PF to come in off the bench and space the floor.

I have no idea how his game will transition to the NBA.  No doubt he can score/shoot, but can he create his own shot and defend an NBA small forward?

 

Probably just a smokescreen, or a reverse-psych smokescreen where we really do pick him.

So what you are saying is we're either going to draft him or we're not.

      Panthers bring in DT Walter Nolen for 30-visit

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      If there's a prospect who looks strong on the field but has the question marks, makes sense to bring them in and see if they are indeed a nutjob or not.  Especially if they couldn't get a good sense in limited time to meet him at the combine.  Randy Mueller has talked about it before -- many GMs don't just use these top-30s to validate the guys they already love.  Although we seem to do that and kind of show our cards a lot lol.   But to the point, if they love tape, have met enough coaches/teammates and talked to them at the bowls/workouts, many teams don't need to wine and dine and get to know them.   There's certain guys who get to know regional scouts, GMs and position coaches starting mid-college season last year.    On the flipside, there's the wildcards who aren't privy to developing relationships with the pro-community while in school, have bad reps, and teams need to dig a bit further into it.  A top-30 becomes a good measuring stick for those teams think could be a stellar fit but are unsure on who the guy actually is - which matters a ton at the end of the day.  Organizational fit has so much more weight than let on and is why these drafts after the first few picks get so all over the map.
