Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects At 6-4 he better have above average handles. If not probably just another Matthews then.
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects I don't think he will go #2, could be wrong of course but I think it will either be T.Robinson or MKG.... and Drummond scares me, he probably will need some time\patience at minimum...high risk\reward with him and can this team afford to do that with its highest pick? I don't think they can...

Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects hmmmm Larue Martin Sam Bowie Michael Thompson Greg Oden v. Bill Walton Perhaps we shouldn't waste a pick (period) on a center! Black/White - I don't see your argument of selecting a black or white center?
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects Other than Martin, all of those centers you mentioned were lottery talents. Name the last white center that was. Even better the last white American center.
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects Btw, that Camby video and what they say about him is exactly what is being said about Davis. The big difference is what Camby did as a junior Davis did as a freshman.
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects Spencer Hawes is decent. Brook Lopez is half white. Joakim Noah is half white. Chris Kaman. Our very own Joel Przybilla. Raef Lafrentz had some good years. Not a lot to pick from when we are talking american fully white centers, but some very serviceable guys. I would be happy with a Spencer Hawes type center with our own pick to be honest.
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects Pretty sure Lopez is half white. http://www.nea.org/home/10590.htm Scroll down the page to the picture. If that is his mom, then she is white.
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects It's interesting that Draft Xpress has just moved Drummond into the top three and Thomas Robinson down to four; they are usually pretty good at predicting how the top group will be drafted. Too bad there is such a small chance that the NJ pick could end up at four.
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects I wouldn't put too much stock into draft positions until all the draft slots have been set. Right now DE and NBA draft.net slot guys based on talent they have seen so far. No workouts, no need. I mean if Orlando wound up at 3, Drummond probably wouldn't be their pick
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects Perry Jones declares for the draft. Drummond supposedly on the fence. (He's going pro) A bit of a surprise, but Jared Cunningham's going pro. That must get Beavers fans all riled up.
Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects Damnit. Mason Plumlee is returning to Duke. I would have loved to see us try to grab him in the 20's somewhere
