    Well, I want to Noel in action in college first. But if he does well there, I'll gladly take a wager on which will be more of a success in the NBA... We'll just have to remember in 10 years. lol

    Any 6' 8" power forwards? We might trade a couple this season, and Morey always like to have spares.

    #15 at nbadraft.net is a 6'8 PF haha, that would be awesome(know we got #14 but still so close).
    Our #44 pick->6'9 SF/PF, legendary.

    Guys stop getting your hopes up. We are not going to be in position to draft the best players, we will be sitting at that 12/14 range.

    I agree that Noel will be the first pick only because the NBA overrates Centers. Look how many lottery center busts there are, it's a crazy rate. Shabazz will have the better NBA career.

    Shabazz is a very good prospect but if people believe the Kobe label he has they will be very dissapointed Wiggins dominated Shabazz. 2014 draft will be a very interesting draft Parker and Wiggins who will go first?

    The Nba doesn't overrate centers, 7 footers with skill are very hard to come by now days

    Cody Zeller's just what this team needs: an efficient 6'11" big with a great work ethic, high hoops IQ, and a nice FT stroke. Multi-year All-Star in the making.

    Next summer's draft will be incredibly top-heavy with Zeller, Shabazz, and Nerlens Noel. Archie Goodwin will be a stud, as well.

    Zeller is closer to 7ft now and added 15lbs on in last 4 to 6 months from a report I read about a scout who is following him closely. Offense nightmare becase he has post up skills, mid range and a shot beyond the nba 3pt. line.
