    Blazers and Cavs with what could be back-to-back steals.

    The other guy he often got compared to before struggling his freshman year of college was somebody who played for the Raptors, think they got him from the Spurs, name escapes me.

    But has good mechanics and shoots very well at the foul line. Also gets to the foul line. He should become at least an average 3-point shooter. He has everything else.

    You can't dislike this pick. He was a top-10 projection for most of the college season. We got him at 25, and he fills our needs.

    I can't believe this. I never thought someone this good would fall that far, and it turned out probably three guys did (Bol, Porter ... oh, and the SG/SF from Kentucky is pretty good, too).
