    I think he could fall to the bottom of the first round / top of the second round.

    Green would be an excellent complement to Parsons; both seem like "jack-of-all-trades" kind of players.

    If Green is still there at the bottom of the 1st / top of the 2nd, I'd try and trade for a pick to draft him.

    I really like Draymond Green - but as a second round pick.


    Too much risk with his size!

    He's really good but he really is a bad example of a tweener though he's to small for the pfs and too slow for the sfs his smarts should help him a bit but I don't think he's worth it at 16

    Too high. He can be snagged lower. I actually really like this guy. Can do a lot of stuff very well and carried his Michigan State team.

    Hell no. If Morey took him at 16, he should be fired.

    Trade one of our assets for a late 1st and I'm okay with taking Draymond.

    Ehhh, he's a good player but no thanks. Wouldn't pick him that high, and we don't really have a need for him considering we have the taller version of him in Parsons already.

    "So let's take a closer look at two relatively short, stocky power forwards who are among the next names on the list: Sullinger and Draymond Green. Will these guys put up numbers? Very likely. Will they be able to guard their position? That is a much more open question and why they won't go as highly as Draft Rater places them. Green, in particular, is a massive defensive question mark."

    This is quoted from Hollinger's draft rater article. He puts Green at #16. However, If you can get him in second round, why bother?

    Personally, I think there're better prospects even in early second round.
