"is a true pg, creates for his teammates, knows how to play, high bball IQ"
you describing sergio or...?

Maynor is MUCH better than sergio

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

I think Mullens goes to NOH here .. possible replacement to Chandler if they still want to trade him... Could also see Sam Young go.

 

[ParniValjak]

Hmm... Blair and Mullens still on the board.

I'm guessing the Hornet is drafting a PG.

I think Hornest are drafting a big. Blair or Mullens

 

[Henkel]

I just hope we stay away from Collison.

edit: Thank you Hornets.

 

[GeraldWallace#3]

Darren Collison?

 

[Kings Faithful]

Maynor is MUCH better than sergio

I don't think so... I'm impressed from what I've seen from Sergio. With 20 mpg he will average 5-6 apg... which is very good for a back up. He already averages over 3 apg with only 12 mpg.

 

[Double-K]

I just hope we stay away from Collison.

You got it

 

[mac]

On an unrelated note, I can't believe it's already been a year since we drafted Pat Ewing Jr. That didn't seem that long ago...

 

[Gary]

I just hope we stay away from Collison.

We need a PG to play along side Evans after we trade Martin.

 

[DoDiGaG0]

decent pick IMO but Collison won't be much more than a prime Speedy Claxton type backup...

 

[beb0p]

Maynor is MUCH better than sergio

I agree Maynor is better than Sergio.

But I think Mullens is worth a gamble this late in the draft.

 

[Sptsjunkie]

so now there are no PGs left and we still dont have one, fricken great....

We have tyreke, udrih and spanish chocolate

 

[jimbodan]

I'm hoping for Blair or Mills. If Blair's knees hold up he could be a real steal for us, at #23 and with most all the really good pg's already gone I think he would be worth the risk. Mills has showed a lot of flashes but has been very inconsistent. I wouldn't mind taking a flier on him as well.

 

[Henkel]

You don't think Evans can play point guard?

 

[DoDiGaG0]

Portland takes Caroll or Casspi here.......

 

[Double-K]

I agree Maynor is better than Sergio.

But I think Mullens is worth a gamble this late in the draft.

Don't forget Sergio is still young... he's like what, 23, 24 years old?

 

[Bricklayer]

That's 5 PGs taken in a row. Gotta be kidding me.

 

[Double-K]

You don't think Evans can play point guard?

I think we've already established Gary's opinion on Evans......

 

[DoDiGaG0]

You don't think Evans can play point guard?

no way he can play the PG, hes a tweener guard in the form of Larry Hughes, Flip Murray, and Ben Gordon.

HE CAN HANDLE -- yes

but he doesn't really have playmaking skills... Im tired of getting the kings play 1 v 1 bball -- but its just going to continue..

People who for some reason(probably just hope) can play PG -- but 90% of the time fail to in the nba.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

09:32 PM: RUMOR: Knicks likely to get Ricky Rubio from Minnesota? Yahoo! reports that a deal is being discussed and one league GM said a deal “isn’t 100 percent,” but likely.


hmm

 

[mac]

I think we've already established Gary's opinion on Evans......

Very much so

 

[beb0p]

Don't forget Sergio is still young... he's like what, 23, 24 years old?

But Maynor is even younger and I think he's already better (slightly) than Sergio.

 

[NewArena]

You don't think Evans can play point guard?

Please dont ask him that..

 

[BLNINJA #81]

Well it's no secret this is a PG draft... I just wish someone in our cough* front office*cough, would do something about it..

It was a joke. Don't worry I understand some of you don't like Evans at the point.

 

[KingGiant49erFan]

Don't forget Sergio is still young... he's like what, 23, 24 years old?

he's 23 and was touted as a steve nash type coming in. didn't get pt in portland being stuck behind all those other guards. i dont see why you would go after him and a pg at 23. honestly ppl if sergio were in this draft you would all be screaming "Sergio is falling!! i hope we can get HIM!!"

 

[GeraldWallace#3]

hmm

Hahaha....I knew Rubio would never be caught dead in Minny lol.

 

[DoDiGaG0]

It was a joke. Don't worry I understand some of you don't like Evans at the point.

look I agree the guy is extremely talented...

but at THE MOST -- hes going to be a Dwade type player(unrealistic but thats his max potential) -- not a true PG

 

[KingGiant49erFan]

Well it's no secret this is a PG draft... I just wish someone in our cough* front office*cough, would do something about it..

They have..

 

[beb0p]

Wow, Sam Young, Blair, and Mullens still on the board. I'll be happy with one of them.
