    Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

    I love Drummond and can't help but thinking of GO when I see him but he I'v always been a big believer in giving the edge to the most talented Big. I'm a little worried about Lamb, mostly worried that we will try and make him into a PG like the Thunder made Westbrook into one and I think that can go horribly wrong.

    I must be crazy but I have this feeling we end up with the #1 pick somehow this year

    Robinson's story is heartbreaking.

    But his maturity is amazing as a 19 year old.

    FWIW, both Robinson and Sullinger measured 6'10" (w/shoes) at the Amare camp last summer.

    Beal might be climbing into the top 5 after dominating MKG like this. Chad was on hand to watch this in person.

    I got a feeling Chad really wants to trade everyone save LMA to get into the top 5.

    Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

    Keep this on the down low, but I hear Chad has found his man.

    Ezekiel Marsh, 5'10" center for Miskatonic University. One leg is shorter than the other, one arm is shorter than the other - but he was born without knees, so he has that going for him. "He is also captain of the swim team, so he must be athletic and have great leadership skills. We see him as our PGOTF, and we are planning to trade Batum so we can move up in the draft for him."

    This pretty much sums up our current scouting staff.

    Is it sad that I looked up "Ezekiel Marsh" on google after reading that?

    I think I like Beal better than Lamb.

    What's with these shot clocks on the floor? Totally unnecessary.

    Pretty similar style. Roy was better at finishing at the rim with either hand and River's crossover jumper isn't on Roy's level. But then, who's is?
