Realistically, what would be a draft you're happy with?

I hope Singleton is the pick. A lot of people are underrating his offensive abilities. He is as good as it gets on defense, but I watched him play a lot at FSU and he has some offensive potential.

Thats why I want Hamilton at 19. We could have a good scoring lineup in there at the 1-2-3 spots at times in Augustin, Hamilton and Jack..then a good defensive team in Livingston-Henderson/Jackson-Singleton

I don't really want Singleton at 9, if Leonard falls to 9 we better take him. I think we need to go big first, I don't really care who either...we just have to address our inside problems. If we do go Singleton at 9 then we have to go Biyombo or Vucevic at 19, have to. We are so weak at center, Biyombo would at least give us good d down low and Singleton just seems like a pick to shore up our defense which wasn't even that bad last year. Biyombo would also be a defensive pick, we need scoring. That's why I want Morris or Thompson, both are good scorers. Marcus can stretch the floor.

Not really i'm not trading two 1st round picks for Singler.

I think Singler would be a great pickup at 19. Great size and range for an NBA small foward. Outstanding work ethic and a good handle with the ball. If he had played anywheres else besides Duke you guys would be all over him.

Jackson and Singler would make a pretty good combo.

Singler may be the most overrated Duke player of all-time, & that's quite an accomplishment.

How is he overrated? I know this is a CBB discussion but if you don't think he wasn't a fabulous player than you are out of your mind. He was first-team All-ACC three times (?) and was the MOP of the 2010 NCAA tournament. He has been one of the classiest players in the game over the past few seasons, stayed all 4 years when he could of been a lottery pick last year...the list goes on and on. Singler was great for the game of college basketball and one of the best players to ever play in Cameron Indoor Stadium. The list of his achievements is never ending, he had a bad senior year but that still doesn't mean he wasn't one of the best players in the nation.

At #9 in this years draft I'll be content with whoever and just see what happens. I don't see anyone who can really come in a be a true difference maker and give our team a big jump in the NBA standings... But we could get lucky a find a player who develops into a solid starter in the future... And after the first few picks it's a complete gamble IMO who will turn out to be what... So I think we just have to get lucky and guess right.

It is just Duke hating, plain and simple.

Singler isn't going to be a great player, but very few people are saying that he will. But he is absolutely a better player than Gordon Hayward and he went 9th overall last year. Not saying Singler should go that high, but Singler isn't a bad player at all.

As much as I have hated Psycho T, Lawson, Ellington, Felton, etc over the years I still admit that they are phenomenal players.
