The only team that I could imagine taking him early is Detroit. I think there's a good chance there.Quote:

The Pistons will have a number of holes in the offseason. Calderon is an expiring contract, and Singler is not the answer at SF. They have Capspace and most likely a top 5 pick. Dumars loves undervalued prospects. I think there's a good chance they could take Burke or Porter who fits the undervlaued profile.Quote:

Chad Ford apparently really likes Smart & Noel because they've gone #1 and 2 every time I've run his lottery machine. I'm not sure how I would feel about this one though... I'd be very happy to win a top 3 pick in the lottery and this pick fills a need with a good player, but I think I'd rather McLemore:

I'm pretty sure i'd not renew is we took Porter over McLemore.

03-31-2013, 03:01 PMPelicans78Who should become the first person to be drafted to the pelicans?
Brandon Knight just isn't that good. They need a PG. I could Burke going to them.
-
03-31-2013, 03:02 PMPelicans78Who should become the first person to be drafted to the pelicans?Yeah that would upset me as well. But Gordon is the question.Quote:

How did I forget Glenn Robinson had that kind of bounce?

03-31-2013, 03:06 PMSnarlyI'll be surprised if Gordon is still with the team by the trade deadline of next season.Quote:

Trey Burke is a monster. Dude is having his Flu Game and still being competitive.

03-31-2013, 03:09 PMPelicans78Who should become the first person to be drafted to the pelicans?If that's the case then our first draft priority should be finding a legit wing scorer. McLemore for sure. I'm not high on Shabazz but he does being that perimeter scoring aspect.Quote:

Yeah McLemore should be the guy if available. Makes it easier to move Gordon.

I like Burke and all but im not one to think that he should be the obvious choice if available like a lot of you guys. MCW is striking my fancy too and i see a lot more upside to his game, though it may take some time to actualize in the NBA. I'm very interested in watching the Michigan/Syracuse game, depending on how it goes it could change a lot of opinions (mine included).

I had no idea Michigan played today... Anybody watch the game? Burke went 5-16 for 15 points but he also had 8 or 9 rebounds and 7 or 8 assists. How did he look?
-
03-31-2013, 04:39 PMJJackisangryO wow i guess that explains the shotting % a little bit. 8 rebounds too... Pretty damn impressive for a small guard like himQuote:

Watching the Louisville game poor kid look like he dislocated his knee, saddest thing all tournament:crytear:
-
03-31-2013, 04:43 PMNOLa.Jesus Christ it looked gruesome. And each team's reaction was crazy. I saw like 3 Louisville players on the ground crying and I had no idea what happened until I saw the replay.Quote:

I had something similar happen. Looks disgusting. Feels disgusting. You couldn't pay me to watch that in slow mo. I changed the channel.
-
03-31-2013, 04:50 PMPelicans_fan_504I dislocated my knee cap in gym and that was some horrible pain,I can only imagine what that poor kid is going through. I never seen a team react like that hope Louisville can pull through.Quote:
