NBA GM Draft Discussion

I'm a Portland fan, live in Portland so I have seen a million Zach Randolph games. He doesn't play defense. At all. Good thing you have Chandler to clean up his mistakes, but every player Randolph has played with hates cleaning up his mistakes eventually and there goes your team chemistry.

The guy sucks so much that Brandon Roy, as a rookie asked for him to be traded from the team.

Brandon Roy also told the guy to shut the hell up when ZBo decided to point fingers in the locker room over who was causing the losing for the team.

He's a piece of shit. His "20 and 10" are useless when he gives up more points on the other end of the court.

The Blazers traded him for pennies on the dollar, which actually became a pretty good trade.

 

Zbo isnt a bad player, but he is a bad team mate.

I remember he and Nate was kinda involved in a fight and he poured a bucket of water on him.

He also is indeed really selfish. Not a good locker room guy.

 

oops

 

Damn, I wanted Ford as my next pick or so....nice selection.

thanks. Everyone was on my case saying my team needed a PG, so I took the guy I thought was the best one left.

 

I was looking at Ford with my pic, too, he's good talent at the pick.

The thing that is scary is his injury concerns, obviously.

The only thing I'm not so sure about is how he can mesh with Tim Duncan. Just seems very contrasting.

I had the same concerns you did, but he was my top rated PG, and I figure I will need a good backup PG to split time with him because of those concerns.

And after Ford, there was a big drop off in PG play.

Yeah, I'm feeling it right now.

I remember Real paired TJ with Duncan one year, too. Doesn't really seem like they would mesh...but hey, this is Tim Duncan we're talking about. Probably doesn't even matter.


ly_ying, you better not pick my guy. I'll find out where you live. And go on your computer to edit your pick.

 

I don't think TJ and Duncan would be too different than Parker and Duncan. Both PG's are scoring guards.

Except Parker operates in the half court, while Ford's MO is to get out of control and run until he can't walk.

I wanted Ford because I needed someone who could take care of the ball. He averaged 3.07 Assists per Turnovers, and also shoots around 47% from FG.

 

I was hoping that Z-Bo would slip to me, but good thing he didn't or else you guys would hate JO & Z-BO....

Well I certainly wasn't talking about college.

(braces for NBA stats)

 

lol Dare I ask what's the white stuff on the left KC?

I mean, Z-Bo could be good if he hustled, but he doesn't. He thinks he's the bombdiggity, but he's the only reason scientists can prove blackholes exist.

6th in the NBA in A/48.

 

Crap. Stuckey and Conley gone.

Guess it was wishful thinking that they would fall.
