Hasheem Thabeet has mega-bust written all over him. I'd say his potential is the second coming of Saer Sene. KC did a pretty good job of convincing me to take another look at Brandon Rush, and I'm now pretty sold on Nikola Pekovic <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Strengths: • Productivity at highest level outside NBA • Top center in the Euroleague • Strength • Frame • Wingspan • Hands • Ability to establish position inside • Back to the basket scoring • Finishing with either hand • Supreme toughness • Throws body around in paint • Offensive rebounding • Defensive rebounding • Setting screens • Rarely misses from close range • Extremely efficient • Mid-range jumper • Doesn’t make mistakes • Late bloomer • Very little downside</div>

Hey Hasheem Tabhet would not let anyone score on him, his O sucks, he is like Collins but can block shoots and say No NO to shots in the paint. Plus he is a Huskie and well 3 huskies on the nets may make me buy season Tickets.
Thabeet is 7'3" and is only averaging 10/8. He's getting 4 blocks a game, but once this guy loses his physical advantages in the NBA he's going to look forward to a career as a scrub.

I dont think he will be a full bust though.

Thabeet is going to be a Grade-A prime slice of BUST... Come to think of it, I honestly think Koufos will be too and Hibbert looks the best out of the lot of them but seems to be destined for a slow, plodding half court offense... Chris Douglas-Roberts looks like a winner to me, but I think if he can improve into March Bill Walker could also be a find... Hang on a minute.... ITS ****ing JANUARY!!!!! WHO THE HELL CARES!!!!

I say we take him if he's still on the board and others are gone.

But we didn't draft Sean after his sophomore year... Bill Walker has talent, and there's a great article written about him in this month's ESPN the magizine (or last month's). He's had knee injuries, so I doubt Throniki goes for him
Chris Douglas Roberts Bill Walker Brandon Rush Probably will be one of these three, I'm doubtful we decide to resign Antione Wright and it's possible Boki could be signed by another team so I think we will defiantely need someone a swingman.
The first round pick I believe we should still look for a big, personally I'm rooting for Devon Hardin with our second round pick, either Brandon Rush or Josh Shipp

Josh, Sean and Nenad = BIG MAN ROTATION.
i support the best player available view on drafting... but thorn has to lay off of his "no tweener" criteria in his drafting rules...the game has gotten a lot faster and smaller so that rule of his has been obsolete for quite a while now...many players that are considered small for his position have been flourishing in the nba...
