    Bet on what the Bobcats will do? LOL no.

    I think he is easily the second best player, but I also think teams drafting up there like Beal as well, who is probably 3rd best

    At least 1 son of a former NBA player has been chosen in the last NINE NBA drafts. It'll be 10 with Austin Rivers this year.


    Next year it will be 11 with James McAdoo

    Lamb seems to be overcoming that earlier interview (which was overblown)

    Just listened to his interview and it was about as normal as it gets.

    He's also super talented

    I will have to listen later. If he comes off as having a brain, then we need to take him.

    Probably the 1st or 2nd most talented player in the draft. Why not 6?

    IMO he's not the BPA with Waiters or Drummond on the board.

    If he could show his head was on strait and he didn't have any personality or brain issues, we would be well above Beal to me. I would probably put him at 3-4 range. Given his question marks, I would feel nervous taking him at 6 though.

    If the #5 is available I don't see why Neil and Paul would at least try to screw things up for a conference rival.

    If you get this pick it'll end their chances for Dwight Howard.

    I think its more likely he is gone at #3 then on the board, but I could definetely see him droping. #2-5 prospects are all very similar. Paul Pierce and Caron Butler both slid to #10 when they were projected around #3 so you never quite know exactly what will happen on draft day. Yes I would be surprised if TRob dropped to us at 6 but far stranger drafts have happened before.

    Also, how much do we really accurately know about NBA teams draft boards? We are going off Chad Ford and some DraftExpress website, along with local beat writers like Quick; I doubt any NBA GM's are giving their true plans out to reporters. For all we know Drummond could be ranked #2 on every teams board and TRob #6. Chad Ford is fed so much misinformation, posturing by agents, and quarter truths we could see some big surprises on Thursday.
