    Oladipo and McLemore are the same age. Both are having great seasons. Muhammad isn't as impressive, but he's a little younger.

    Noel was 18. I can see why he would be the top pick.

    Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams

    Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston

    If our FO thinks that Oladipo is the BPA when we pick, I have no doubt that they will take him. It makes the decision easier with Rivers, he automatically goes to backup 1 and we become a pretty darn good team.

    GV/Rivers
    Gordon/Vic
    FA/Aminu
    Davis/Anderson
    Lopez/Smith


    My LORD that's a great young corps.

    I think Oladipo compares to Jordan physically but that's where it ends. I think Wade is such a better ballhandler than Victor I fail to see that comparsion.

    I like him on this team but I think he's a 2 not a 3.

    An FYI programming note for tonight...

    Moses (Maryland)

    Ben McLemore vs. Marcus Smart tonight on ESPN2. Which player has a better NBA career?
    Chad Ford (1:53 PM)

    I could see them going 1 and 2 in the NBA draft. And I'm not sure which guy would go No. 1. Probably depends on team need. I love them both. Both have their weaknesses. But both have the potential to be NBA All-Stars someday.

    My money is on Smart.

    Hm...McLemore is being very passive right now. The game could be shut down if he would seek to score on his own.

    This has been a good game. They play by the "other" guys have been great.
    If you Jimmer it, they will come.

    I'm shocked that once again, Burke's hype has died out even though he's just chugging along at 21 points a game including one with 29 and another with 25...

  13. #313

    Who should become the first person to be drafted to the pelicans?

    Burkes still my number one choice

  14. #314
    Burke still #1 for me.

    Burke, McClemore, Smart, Noel, Oladipo, Zeller.

    Burke's 29 and also some Robinson III in there:

    You would take Burke #1? I am a Michigan fan, and even I think that that's a bad idea.

    No way anyone would consider him number 1 overall right ?

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    No one said that... but come to think of it, man I would hate to have #1 this year.

    Yeah. It's not a desirable choice. You almost have to reach for someone like Burke just to get someone productive right away.

    Imo by the time the draft comes around we wouldn't need to reach for Burke. He'll work his way into the top 10.

    Or pull the trigger on a "ceiling" guy like Oladipo or Bazz. I'd hate to have #1. Hell I don't even want 1-3.

    If we have a top 5 I think it'd be a bit of a reach.
