2013 NBA Draft thread.

[Spike]

Sigh.

 

[NewArena]

And weight.

way too skinny. No thanks

 

[Kingster]

This McCollum has a very good reputation

 

[Entity]

well i didn't see that coming. lets see out guard lineup right now.

Thomas
Fredette
Tyreke
Thornton
Maclemore
Macallum

 

[AaronPDX]

Yet another UNDERSIZED guard....wth was that ??

 

[The_Jamal]

Here comes the storm

 

[hrdboild]

Dammit, Pistons cleaning up our mess again.

 

[Glenn]

Who? Just what we needed, a PG. That ought to make the PG lovers happy. Now we could play a full team of PGs.

 

[cuad]

Why?

 

[Bricklayer]

Heh -- kinda funny. No discernible difference whatsoever in our draft behavior. Maybe Geoff ruled the day anyway as the only guy who had scouted these guys.

 

[Agent23]

Is Geoff Petrie still drafting for this team?

 

[HereWeBoogie]

a Point Guard? wtf

 

[Dime Dropper]

Idiotic. What's the point? They were right there for us. Second round, but still, just stupidity for a franchise supposedly looking to become defensively competent.

And the Pistons instantly make the most of our mistakes, as usual.

 

[Gary]

What a waste of a pick.. Brings me back to the Singletary, Ewing Jr picks.

 

[theclash4u5]

We are going to seriously regret this pick.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

Bahhh. McCallum.

This team is going have to ditch guards. A lot of guards.

 

[Mojo]

Dammit, Pistons cleaning up our mess again.

Man. Had a feeling that would happen too.

 

[Heuge]

At least we didn't sell the pick for Ma**oof lunch money.

 

[Kingster]

well i didn't see that coming. lets see out guard lineup right now.

Thomas
Fredette
Tyreke
Thornton
Maclemore
Macallum

Save this and compare to the guard lineup when the season starts.

 

[Entity]

i wasn't intrigued by a 2nd round big man shot blocker anyway see Justin Williamns and Hasan Whiteside. thats something we need to be a proven player.

 

[rainmaker]

And then Mitchell with the next pick.

At this point, I think it's fair to start questioning PDA's value on defense. What did Vivek say today? That we tried our hardest to move up for McLemore, not Noel, not Len, not Porter, but McLemore. Now that he fell to us, I'm excited if it's a Reke/Ben backcourt, but then we had an opportunity to actually address our defensive issues, and we go with another F'ing scoring PG.

It literally makes zero sense, if you believe they defense is the top priority.

 

[Bricklayer]

Heh -- kinda funny. Not much difference in our draft behavior. Maybe Geoff ruled the day anyway as the only guy who had scouted these guys. At least there is more athleticism and defensive potential. But now we've got an absolute ton of work to do.

 

[KingsCitizen]

The rumors yesterday are TRUE..

"The Kings are very high in a PG prospect....McCollum"......the reported just misheard it...It should be "a" not "o".... Ray McCallum.... LOL

 

[Fear the Putin]

we're gonna trade a lot of guards this off season

 

[The_Jamal]

2nd round pick.

Let's continue to freak out about how bad this FO is.

 

[hrdboild]

Tony Mitchell was projected in the top 10 before the season started. Obviously he had a bad season, but he had first round talent.

 

[Bricklayer]

It literally makes zero sense, if you believe they defense is the top priority.

We hired a stats geek from Denver to be our GM -- was that a defense first hire?

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

waste...

 

[Heuge]

And then Mitchell with the next pick.

Haha, based on a 2nd round pick. A bit of an overreact.

 

[KingsCitizen]

Here we go with a very busy off-season. Looks like Reke, MT, Jimmer, IT, and Toney D gonna have a lot of sleepless nights from today.
