I hope you're right since there's no point in winning now anyway. We're not going to be caught by Charlotte or Orlando- it's just not happening. So the best you could hope for would be finishing third worst. Looks like Phoenix is going to lose tonight, so that puts us at tied for third after today's games. Even though we have a tough schedule, I wouldn't rule out a couple teams ending up with a worse record than us, putting us as around the fifth to worst record. Phoenix is terrible and Detroit has lost seven in a row. We'll just have to see how it plays out.

Otto porter just shrank in that big east champ game. I've been making it a point to watch him lately and im not impressed. He is a solid sf I guess but nothing that's going to put us over the top. His ceiling doesn't seem like it'll be very high. I'd much rather shabazz than him. I want a scorer and porter seems awkward when handling the ball.

03-15-2013, 10:35 PMNOLa.I didnt get to see the game but that sounds unlike Porter. Also, it was the semi-final I think.Quote:

Yeah Porter had one crap game. It was very unlike him, but there are going to be nights when your shot doesn't fall, and your going to lose. Even Ali lost.
My boys in Blue lost and to be honest, a lot of the blame fell on Trey. 8-22? Usually he starts shooting when he knows nobody else is even remotely in the game, but today he just started chucking like he was playing hot potato.
I am still sold on grabbing CJ McCullum if we land a 2nd 1st rounder. 6'3, speed player, a thief (1.8 steels a game) a scorer. Yes please. -

The worst team never wins the lottery it's ussualy the 2 or 3 worst team, McLemore here we come :)

03-15-2013, 11:00 PMkclaboy504Well it's not like porter has been beastin all year long consistently. He has just come on strong the 2h of the season with quite a few not so great games such as tonight sprinkled in there also. That's why he was a late entry into poy race. I just think shabazz has much more upside than him. Def a better scorer than him and IMO we need some dam scorers on this team.Quote:

Like they say, the cream always rises to the top.
As for Shabazz, I need to see more out of him before I start believing in him. He didnt light the world ablaze today in UCLA's game. As a matter of fact the guy that won the game for UCLA will be out the remainder of the season, so we are about to see just how "real" Shabazz is. -
03-15-2013, 11:25 PMSilverfoxxI thought that at the beginning of the season. But now I thank he would be Lou Williams level at most.Quote:

Victor oladipo- tony Allen
Marcus smart- Wesley Matthews
Alex Len — Bogut
Shabazz- OJ mayo/Jr Smith
Otto Porter - Barium
Trey Burke- Kyle Lowry
Nerlens Noel- Larry Sanders
Cody Zeller -Anderson Varajao
Ben MCLEMORE- Lou Williams
This draft class has no all stars IMO -
03-15-2013, 11:39 PMHornetGuruDont like those comparisons at allQuote:

Porter barium - idk who barium is but I see porter as a tayshaun prince Danny granger
Burke Lowry - Lowry is a pitbull bull on d and uses his body weight and power to get to the rim and is an ok passer, Burke is super quick and a jump shooter who throws dime passes
Zeller verijao - zeller is quick, uses a face up jumpshot and array of post moves, verijao uses his big burly size to out rebound people and hit outback layups
McLemore Lou Williams - this to me is the worst one, Lou Williams is a combo guard who uses his ball handling and quickness to get jumpshots, McLemore has a great jumper and awesome athletic ability to dunk but doesn't have ball handling,moly Williams couldn't dunk if we had a ladder

^^^^^ I think he means Nicolas batum not barium......lol
-
03-16-2013, 02:01 AMdonatoHow is the steal stat super impressive when last time I checked Smart and MCW were averaging almost 3 steals per game? Maybe I'm completely wrong on that by the way- I am a bit senile haha.Quote:

I think this year draft class player will be someone who isn't getting alot of attention on this board. Maybe a guy like ...... ANTHONY. BENNETT.Quote:

Yeah those comparisons are bad.

03-16-2013, 08:50 AMUNO GraciasSmart and MCW both avg. in the 2's (2.9 for Smart, and 2.8 MCW), in comparison McCollum has 1.95. I guess I am impressed with CJ because, he can do everything, and who does he have on his team. I can name 3 guys off the top of my head that play for OSU and Cuse, but McCollum is a one man show in the mold of Damian Lillard and CP3 in college. Just one man wrecking crews.Quote:

I want Barium! I think it is the missing element we have all been looking for. Check out the scouting report:
