    I would be EXTREMELY happy if the Rockets got Drummond. Only issue is that he is not terribly quick off the ground, but as somone else pointed out, he is a very large man.

    I don't see any Hakeem. He is thicker & bigger than Dream. He is not nearly as quick off the ground or as smooth as Dream.

    Yeah, should be a sure thing. I don't know about a superstar, but definitely an all-star caliber player. The comparison to Dwight is perfect, much better ball handling and vision though. Should go 1 or 2.

    I don't watch too much college basketball, but I hear Anthony Davis as the possible number one pick. So my question is, given the chance, who would you rather have, Drummond or Davis? Thanks

    This is the exact reason why I want to see the rockets tank with extreme prejudice. The kid is a freak.

    The thing is we would haft to tank HARD. He's most likely the #1 pick, definitely won't leave the top 3. This is why i'm sure with all morey's # working skill's he can figure out who's gonna be the worst team this season and gut the team for their pick. If the pick doesn't turn out to be low enough to get him look at it this way, since we gutted the team we will also have another top 10 pick thats our own. We can just trade that, our other pick and what the ever the hell they want for the 1st for 2nd pick.

    He's the next Amare Stoudemire without the knee issues.

    Dude will be a bonefide superstar in the making.

    Now this is the guy you tank the season for.

    Reminds me of Webber with a little bit more hops.

    For better or worse, Andre Drummond reminds me of Shawn Kemp.

    Start Kmart and bud and adrien every game so we can pick this kid up. He's putting up good college rebound numbers.

    The question surrounding Amar'e was always
    Do you play D?

    Tonight's tournament loss to Iowa State was a big swing-and-a-miss for Drummond. He definitely needs to come back another year.

    If Drummond enters the draft and falls to Sacramento, would you trade Lowry + the Knicks pick to pry him or Cousins away from them? Drummond and Cousins, very similar players.
