With the 14th pick in the NBA draft, the Houston Rockets select...

If we use the 4th pick to get Enes Kanter than I would love that trade!

 

patrick peterson

 

I want him and everytime he makes a block I can yell Bismack, averaging 10 blocks a game is INSANE.

Dikembe Mutombo Jr., folks.

 

Terrence Jones!

 

Biyombo will be gone before 14

 

If Kanter lasts until 8 I could see the Rockets making a trade to move up to try to get him. Whatever Biyombo did in the Nike Hoops Summit, Kanter was much better the previous year. Plus he's gotten a whole year of practicing against Kentucky players, which is like the NBA prep team, so he's basically been like Blake Griffin except he's been healthy.

Otherwise, between Kanter, Vesely, and Motiejunas, I bet Morey has his eye on one of them and would be willing to package our 23 even to move up 2-3 spots to get one of them if they were still available.

 

We really need to trade up..

If we draft at #14 I want Jordan Hamilton, Tristan Thompson, Alec Burks or Kawhi Leonard. I think Hamilton will be a very good player in the league.

 

People actually wanna pick Jimmer? The guy has bust written all over him. Shooter but with zero defense or shot creating ability against bigger defenders.

I really like Kemba though. He's like a mini Derrick Rose.

 

You must not have found out, the 1983 draft class wasn't very good either. (With the exception of Houston getting Sampson at #1)

All I was saying is that it is ignorant to say that no good players will be left by the 14th pick.

 

Heres a good question. Who do you all think will be the "hidden gem" outside of the lottery? According to the current DX mock. I will take the easy road and say one of the Morris twins. Another pick would be Jeff Taylor.

 

Chris Singleton

If the Rockets keep the 23rd pick and he is still there I hope they grap him. He is going to be another stud defender at the 3 spot IMO.

 

My crystal ball is not working so I cant say where he will be drafted but the Rockets sure need to get him. NBA draft which did a pretty good job on their mock draft last year has him in the back of the 1st round... not a lottery. DX has him at number 7. An NBA GM said he looks like a mid to late 1st round pick. I really hope the Rockets get this guy though.

 

With all the hype that he has been creating, i'm thinking DX is right on this one.

 

Trade all the team's picks plus any TE for a proven player.

 

I wouldn't call Jimmer a bust, but I really don't want to see any more no-D players here. Maybe if we're also trading Bud and Scola.

 

Weak level of competition. Eurocup (level below the Euroleague) and Italian League (very mediocre national league).

You can't judge him by that level of competition, as it is FAR LOWER than the Euroleague level.

 

THIS. Then maybe we'll play some defense...

 

Last year Larry Sanders went 15th. So, i'd say if BISMACK BIYOMBO goes that high it'd be a huge reach.

 

Had to check out this Bismack kid's info. Holy smokes...this guys got a 7' 7 " wingspan?

 

I would bet on that kid from Richmond and Jimmer. People are saying the same things about Jimmer that were said about Stephen Curry. Didn't matter. When a kid has the ability to throw the ball into a straw from downtown Dallas, he can be a player in the NBA.
