2013 NBA Draft thread.

[hrdboild]

I was about to ask if Jimmer for #20 is still in play. Chicago needs a SG though.

  On the advice of his agent Arn Tellem, Tyreke Evans withdrew from the draft party today.Spoke with his camp- he wants to be a King for sure.
  
  

Huge relief.

 

[rainmaker]

If the Kings can get a SF that can shoot, and they use PPatt at the PF. a lineup of Reke/McLemore/ShootingSF/Patterson/Cousins provides some very nice floor spacing to help Tyreke and Cousins

Defender at the 4. Need a defender. Didn't get one tonight but it's a must have going forward.

 

[Gary]

Chicago taking Snell screams trade with us, but I hope it's not the case. The McLemore selection might actually negate the desire for Snell/Hardaway JR, which I'd be happy with. Go shotblocker in the 2nd round...

Tall lanky weak side shot blocking project. That's what I would like.

There isn't one of those left after checking the boards.

Muhammad: "Rubio is unselfish, I'm not - me likey"

Muhammad: "Rubio is unselfish, I'm not - me likey"

Did he really say that?! haha! At least he's being honest!

 

[hrdboild]

This is just more wishful thinking from me, but I wonder if Shabazz Muhammad going to Minnesota makes it easier to acquire Derrick Williams?

Holding out for Withey, Dieng, Gobert, or even Tony Mitchell in the second round, if not a trade up.

Dieng might work

Not exact quote , but it's close.

Reke's brother wants it:

Nelson ‏@NWebster15 5m
@Bluprintceo Tyreke/McLemore can be an outstanding backcourt duo! on both offense and defense

we had Mitchell on our Summer League team and could have just signed him last year

Different guy

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Dieng would be great, but there he goes, off the board

 

[HereWeBoogie]

Different guy

oh crap, really? same first name too!?

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Not the same player.

Tony Mitchell would be a steal at #36.

 

[Gary]

Damn.. Was hoping Dieng would drop to 2nd round.

 

[Dime Dropper]

Stern is in great form for his last draft. Going out with a bang!

Dieng gone. Pipedream that he'd make it 'til the 2nd anyway. Still a few bigs I like there if they last (unlikely) - Tony Mitchell, Withey, Gobert. I'd also be happy with Goodwin, Muscala, Wolters, Nedovic, Ledo.

 

[beb0p]

Lakers with Fisher. Heat with Chalmers. Pacers with Hill.

They are all in fact, PGs. You might not think they're good PGs, but they are PGs nonetheless.

are any of those really much better than Aldrich?

 

[cuad]

Withey is still on the booooard.

 

[Gary]

Depends on what you are looking for.,

 

[beb0p]

The Kings 13 years ago.

If you don't count Bibby and BJax, sure.

 

[chasen4r1]

Any other kings activity? All this talk about the Kings shaking it up... I had high expectations!

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

well. here comes that indy pick we wanted...

 

[beb0p]

Depends how you define PG. If you're in the crowd who thinks it's only a Nash type, well you'll be hard pressed to find a champion with that kind of pure PG.

If you realize the definition of PG is constantly changing, then it's all kinds from Fisher/Chalmers/Hinrich to Rose/Westbrook/Parker.

I think we both know what is the definition of a point guard, right? Afterall, a point guard is not that hard to define.

Probably tougher to move some of our junk than some think.

You've been on vacation from kingsfans too long. The most debated topic around here is what qualifies as a PG.

I know Reke qualifies as a PG in certain systems, yet many will disagree, and there you go, different definitions of a PG.

Really? You've got scorers. Passers. Spot up shooters. It's a really varied position these days.
