DMO would be taken before many of the people you listed. He would go in the lottery (8-14) this season. He slipped last year because he was coming off a season where he did not rebound well or play in the post. This last season he played well in the post and rebounded very well.
Probably - he has absolutely no trouble passing out of the double team and hitting the open wing. His passing skills are phenomenal for a 7' player. But I have never seen him used as a point forward.
The thing with Drummond is he needs to go to a team with a good veteran presence in order for him to succeed. Sacramento does not have that.
Why would Kansas play, in your mind, two inferior players who only got drafted 13/14 over someone who would've been a #2 pick? Are you saying Bill Self is an idiot?
he is probably waiting to unleash this skill on the NBA...should be a cake walk after battling such superior Polish league competition
Whats really childish is how you are throwing tantrums on a keyboard because people are disagreeing with your assessment. People disagree with me pretty everyday on here. I have yet to piss my pants over it.
Could it work, sure. Two seven footers with one who can run the court as effectively as Drummond would never be a bad thing. I just don't see this pairing maximizing each players talents. This pairing would force Cousins to stretch his game out as Drummond is never going to play outside the paint (nor should he have to). While Cousins is fully capable of hitting a 15 footer, it's not where I want him to live. I want to develop a post game and use the threat of the jumper as an added dimension and something he can use to get to the hoop. Also without knowing much about Cousins passing ability, I would think he's not what one would consider a passing big man. I know Drummond is not a paasing big. So now on top of taking Cousins out of the paint (something I don't want) I'm increasing my teams turnover rate and inneficiency by playing these two together at my big positions.
Oh yeah! I think they would need a point over any other position and Lowry would fit the mold of a good locker room presence.
You know I have no problem if someone disagrees with my opinion. Just so long as they bring facts. Opinions (ill founded for the most part) mean nothing to me.
