I really haven't had a chance to watch Wall play, although I have seen highlights on ESPN but those can only tell you so much. I was wondering how good is this guy gonna be? and who can he be compared to in the NBA?
This draft is so deep, I hope we do miss the playoffs now. I don't know about you guys but I would prefer a top notch prospect instead of a brief playoff appearance. That isn't going to stop me from watching and rooting our guys on though. Now assuming we do get the 12th pick, I'd love to pick up Donatas Motiejunas or Xavier Henry.
I've seen John Wall a lot and the kid can play....no secret there. But 0.6%......that's about right. It's not happening.
If its truly deep then we should be able to make the playoffs and still get a good player If the difference is only pick 12 in lotto vs pick 17 in the draft if we make playoffs, I'll take a playoffs and pick 17.
Actually if we make the playoffs we would end up with the 20th pick. And we sure can but the odds of making out with a future starter (or even all-star) are greater in the lottery. Besides in Chad Ford's mock (granted he's not the most reliable), he has Donatas going to the Clippers at the 11th pick...one pick away from the Rockets, which has been giving me goosebumps all day.
I want them 2 get a good pick but I don't want them 2 lose. Honestly,they should just lose since were not gonna win the title This year..as much as I love the rockets,we gotta face reality,were Not gonna win the whole thing....but we will soon I hope!!!
the first guy you have on there is compared to be the next version of Andrea Bargnani... I rather have Patrick Patterson than him
