    There's always debate, but as I said, I don't believe Robinson's measurements at all. If they're accurate, he'll be a sure-fire beast in the NBA with his body and would be strongly considered as a #1 pick who could produce immediately. If they're not, he's Corliss Williamson, but a little more explosive, which happens to be the side I'm closer to believing right now.

    Everyone seems to be super excited about Flynn, but I couldn't care less for the guy. I really hope we take Kendall Marshall with our own pick.

    I like Marshall too, but Flynn could be a cheap and long term backup.

    If Fez had his way:

    #1: Trade up for Drummond
    #2: Hire Kareem Abdul-Jabar

    Bam!

    So how much less could you actually care? Are you close to bottoming out or is there a ways to go?

    Would you guys be upset if we took Marshall with our pick, and John Henson, Jared Sullinger or Harrison Barnes with the Nets pick?

    Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

    I like Kendall Marshall quite a bit ... out of those other guys you mention, I'm not a big Harrison Barnes fan, and I'm a little bit leery of Sullinger (oh look another Ohio State Center with two legs different lengths) and I don't know if Henson is really a worthy top 7 pick.

    I'd probably pick Drummond if he was still available.

    Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

    I'd be okay with Marshall.

    Of all the guys we could pick with the Nets pick, Sullinger is probably the safest pick. I can't imagine any scenario where he's not a productive NBA starter. Something like Big Al or Millsap earlier in their careers. I don't like how he fits on the roster though, since we need a defensive big more than we need an offensive one. I'd be pissed if we took Barnes. One dimensional role player waiting to happen. I'd try to trade up for TRob, or draft Cody Zeller if he comes out.

    The prospects that will be available with the #4 pick and on couldn't be any more unimpressive to me

    I'm not opposed to Kendall Marshall. He sounds a little bit like Andre Miller coming out of Utah.

    Fab Melo hired an agent -- huge mistake.

    When I watch him play I see the current Nazr Mohammed.

    Renardo Sydney also declared. I'm pretty sure his character will check out with GM's.

    Its too bad Sidney's such a knucklehead because he's a great talent.

    Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

    Lillard is generating a lot of buzz lately. Some analyst called him "D-Wade Jr."

    Ranks #2 in PER just behind Anthony Davis.

    I like Lillard, but think he should focus on being a PG.
