Needs: Power Forward, Point Guard, SG/SF Power Forward Tiago Splitter Josh McRoberts Herbert Hill Point Guard Rodney Stuckey Javaris Crittenton SG/SF Morris Almond Brandon Rush Derrick Byars I think these are the guys we will be picking from. At PF, Splitter and McRoberts MIGHT fall, but most likely they wont get past NJ and Washington. Stuckey and Crittenton could fit nicely next to TMac as combo type guards that can handle the ball, pass, and score as well. SG/SF would be the easiest position to fill. Almond, Rush, and Byars could all do well coming off the bench to provide a spark.
tucker is inconsistent. he's a little overhyped by the college analysts because of what he did for his team. his game wont transition as well to the NBA. plus, he's only 6'5 and he's not quick enough to play the 2. we need some versatility. a little streaky, and we need someone who is consistent and solid. someone who we can rely on when we need some points. i actually like Afflalo, but he's not the 6th man scorer that we need. we need someone who can really light it up, handle the ball, and create his own shots when tracy is on the bench. afflalo would be a nice piece to a team, but he's not a real sparkplug 6th man type. i like his toughness, but like someone said before, if his shot isnt falling, it affects his whole game. he wont play defense if his shot isnt going in and it really affects him mentally.
Sounds insane but maybe Jerius Jackson can be a spark. I don't even think he will get picked, he is too short and doesn't create for others. But man can he light it up quick. Afflalo reminds me of Baron Davis/Mario Elie.
rockets really do need to try and pick up a 2nd rounder. this draft is too deep not to. Should be some keepers there
