I like his game a lot, but I think it'll be a reach at 4. I would hope to trade down and take him a few spots later. Oladipo is the trade bait. Teams will move up for him.

 

In this draft where 1-10 all have positives and negatives who's to say what's a reach and what's not.

There is no reach with the top few guys. All of the fugs are development guys minus Burke. ... So why would we not take Burke?

 

If Orlando wanna screw us up by trading down (McLemore not falling to 4), I'd purposely take Burke at 4 and make them have to "TRADE" for him from us.

I'm willing to almost guarantee that Trey Burke will not be the pick...

 

We're trying to develop Kemba into a great player not make him expendable by drafting a player with the same skill set as him.

 

We don't have enough depth or quality starters to start drafting to replace players.

 

I'd pick and trade him.

Why not just trade the pick then? I update the Hornets news thread, apparently Minnesota is interested in moving up.

 

Minnesota (McLemore) and Portland (Oladipo) has shown interests in trading up. But, that's a bit far at 9th and 10th. Who's gonna be there? Let's forget this trade talk.

One NBA Director of Scouting called Maryland C Alex Len's foot issue "real scary."

Len underwent surgery earlier this month to repair a stress fracture in his ankle. A bad wheel isn't good for a guy carrying around a 7'1/250 frame. Yao Ming, Bill Walton, Sam Bowie, Greg Oden and Andrew Bynum serve as cautionary tales for general managers scouting this year's class. Len may have very well been a top-5 pick if not for his injury.

 

It looks like Len's foot injury is a little bit for serious than thought.

Even without the injury concerns, Len is a stiff. No thanks. We don't need to spend a lottery pick to get a tall guy to sit on the bench.

Yeah I agree. A hell

No to Len. He's the only guy that I wouldn't want out of the possibilities we could choose.
