    WTF!!!!! Denver just made a HORRIBLE MOVE.We drafted an undersized PF in Leon Powe when we needed a shooter and Guillermo Diaz was still on the board! He was one of the best shooters in this draft!God I hate this teams moves [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Player: Leon PoweWeaknesses: At 6-7, Powe is extremely undersized for the power forward position, although his freakish wingspan makes up for that to a certain extent. Most of his points in college are scored in ways that many scouts would call ?non-transferable? to the NBAusing his brute strength and athleticism to outquick and overpower weaker and slower defenders. His face-up game is not polished enough at this point. Multiple knee surgeries have robbed him of much of the explosiveness he once had, and there are serious concerns about how he?ll hold up.</div> [​IMG]

    Haha, yeah I love it! I think Powe was awesome for my Celtics haha. But I think Mike Gansey should have been your pick. He is lights out from anywhere and consistant. Diaz is a combo guard that is a good athlete, but a very streaky shooter. When he is on, he is on, but if he's off.. you know he's off. I think Gansey should have been the pick, and I'm pissed he went undrafted.

    Wow, huge mistake not taking Diaz. Just mind boggling how Denver could pass him up.

    This draft sucked ass guys. Diaz or whoever the Nuggets picked would not have played. The Nuggets needed to the roster spot and next years draft will be 10x deeper then this years.People are fretting over a 2nd round pick in a horrible draft year. . .
