    Are all solid. Ideally they should've taken Vonleh, so that Jason Thompson isn't their starting PF.
    Yeah Vonleh would of been a good pick,i dont disagree with that at all. But honestly that crop of guards isnt something to write home about. We'll see I suppose

    You think Gary Harris is better than Afflalo?

    Not right now, but they werent going anywhere with Aaron. Harris is a better defender (coupled with Oladipo) thats a scary duo in that side, and Gordon down low...really solid D.

    Harris CAN be better. If his back holds up, he will be a stud. Shot, drive, pull-up. He can do everything on offense. Imo, was the B1Gs best player this year, over Stauskas.

  • Laley23

    Yeah plus having young legs never hurts. Orlando has some pieces.

    Hes not creating his own shot in the NBA and who the hell is he gonna guard?
  • KB0938
    And justttt as the announcers said, they already have Gallinari and Chandler. Why draft him?

    He can play D, and he rebounds. He has a full arsenal on offense as well, can score in almost every way. Honestly if he were black he would be a top 3 pick, being honest lol.
  • Lovejoy1984
    Nuggets have a lot of wings right now.
  • Lovejoy1984
    Hell of an answer for McDermott on that question.

    Lol if he were black hed still be slow, unathletic(compared to wings in the NBA not your average joe). And theres absolutely no way in hell hes staying in front of Wings in the NBA
  • Laley23
    McDermott can score in the league. Just a matter if you can put him on the court because he is not quick enough to guard 4s in the NBA. He is a pretty slow guy, but that shot and his moves/arsenal...he can score anywhere.
  • KB0938
    But hes not better than Faried, Gallinari or Chandler at this point. It makes zero sense for Denver to draft him. Maybe other teams but not Denver, unless they plan on trading Faried like it was rumored
  • KB0938
    Ok theyre trading him to Chicago. Makes more sense
  • Azubuike24
    For the hype, crazy quiet and predictable draft.

    As I say that, McDermott traded to the Bulls for 16 and 19...

    He's athletic enough, and he is crafty which can make up for foot speed. He tested pretty well at the combine. Most wings in the nba aren't creators, wouldn't worry about that at all.
  • Lovejoy1984
    One thing is for sure. Unlike the NFL 1st round, there are plenty of picks that we can 2nd guess, and discuss.
  • Lovejoy1984
    Welp McDermott is going to Bulls.
  • Lovejoy1984
    Hmm. Saric is a good player, but not sure why they'd draft a guy that high, just to stash him for at least 2 years.
  • Iliketurtles
    Lol Magic.
  • Laley23
    Im hearing they are trading him.
  • KB0938
    Lmao Lavine is pissed hes goin to Minnesota
  • Azubuike24
    Looks like LOL at Philly (sigh).

    Saric going there (and 18) for Payton? That's what is being thrown out.
