It's quite mirrored how similar they are save for the father in the NBA thing and Shabazz's jumper doesn't have mechanical issues.
It's why I'm not worried about if we take him. But if things stand as they are, we won't even get to take him.

I can't help but view Bazz as I did Dummond last year. For all the hype, he didnt live up to it. Drummond was supposed to be Dwight Howard and that didnt happen. Bazz was supposed to be a scorer like Melo, and that didnt happen. Neither dominated in college like they were supposed to.
With luck we won't have to worry about drafting him.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
Apples and Oranges imo. Drummond was a big man who take much longer to develop. Drummond didn't have an overbearing father. Drummond was a freak in term of measurables. Shabazz is not some freak of nature. I would have had no problem taking Drummond #2 overall.Originally Posted by UNO Gracias
"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.'"

I wouldn't take it for more than a grain of salt right now. It's clearly an over reaction of what he's read in the media. He most likely has never met Muhammad nor has he ever worked him out so his opinions are clearly biased at the moment.
We and everyone else will know more about Muhammad once he actually meets with NBA personnel and they get a better feel for who he is and what he's about.
To be fair, there were a couple of rumors about Drummond predraft calling him lazy and lacking basketball IQ. Feels like a lot of teams passed up on him because of what they read about him. It all refuted when the pistons actually met with him and worked him out. The Pistons staff was surprised what they found out about Drummond when they met with him. Met with him twice and eventually drafted him.
This just shows you that you need to do your own research rather than relying on the media for information.

1- Charlotte: McLemore
2- Orlando: Smart
3- Cleveland: Noel
4- Phoenix: Porter
5- Detroit: Oladipo
6- New Orleans: Burke
I wouldn't be shocked to see Charlotte take Noel either.
Play it again, Sam.
Wherehappens.
Those are really 5 prostpects you'd give the stank eye to if we didn't take above Burke IMO.
Watch Brandon Davies vs Baylor.
I would take Burke over Oladipo.
Charlotte should take Noel over Smart.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
Not really an issue now but Alex Poythress announced he is returning to Kentucky for his sophomore season. A lot of talk about drafting him at the beginning the season not on the board anymore
Good, he's nowhere near ready for the league.
Anyone like?
Ok with me too

I don't know, they seem to be very stupidly wrapped up in Biyombo. Maybe they are over it though.
Best move for him. He'll return as a leader for that loaded class next year like Terrence Jones. Actually, he reminds me of TJ a lot.
Hard to know what teams are thinking. Was he hurt last year or just didn't play?!
love it

Steven Adams declared today, he probably should have stayed another year or two as he is quite raw but is leaving due to support family. If we could get a second pick in the early 20's he is well worth a pick as the potential is huge. I could imagine Chicago + Memphis being a team who may sell there pick to avoid luxury tax.
He's getting bad advice. He's not ready for the league.
Its definitely bad advice, he has potential to go top 10 if he stays another year or two but its pressure from his family - he has 18 sibblings and there father passed away a few years back.
Sucks for Adams because another year or two and he's lottery potential. Nothing stood out about him last season but he came in as the top incoming Big East recruit in the preseason and dissapointed Pitt.
Adams will go in the 1st. This time last year people were saying he would be a top 15 pick THIS year. He will be a lock for the first, but where who knows. The combine, as well as personal workouts are where he will have to shine, but being a mobile 7ft player is something attractive to most gm's.
If we could land a 2nd round pick I would like to get my hands on Brandon Davies. He has a good game vs Baylors big men. He will probably get picked up by the Spurs or Nuggets, but that kid had a great season, and an even better season playing next to Jimmer. Since then he hasn't played with any NBA talent and he can't keep the ship afloat with a bunch of In and Out employees for teammates.
