    Did some research on Pekovic, and it seems like he would be a great addition, even for the full MLE...

    Check out the guy's DraftExpress bio here: http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Nikola-Pekovic-1047/

    It seems like he made giant strides & progress this season, and is now the go-to scorer for Panathinaikos, the Greek powerhouse. Length, post moves, rebounding, this kid seems to have it all except NBA calibre defense. Definitely sounds like a Morey-type move. I'm all for it.

    seems to have a soft touch with a polished post game, ala Scola, but he can finish above the rim

    Might be a good pickup. Looks like a poor man's David Andersen.

    So why did we get David Andersen? Another soft center up front.

    Most efficient player in Europe, and a talented low post scorer for the 14th pick...

    Git r done Morey the Master.

    If I ever run into him in a dark alley, I am afraid he will violate my human rights.

    Is this a sign that the Aussie Shaq is gone? Yipee! I don't know hwo this Pekovic is, but he can't be worse than Andersen.

    I think he'll be more ready to contribute than any other big available at #14.

    If you all think he's decent enough to make an immediate impact on our team, I'll go with it.

    I'm really hoping we aren't going to depend on players that aren't proven yet.

    We need a legitimate PF or C going into the season.

    I'd prefer an NBA veteran....

    I'd like to have Amare and Brad Miller make it over here.

    Trade Jared and for Mikael Peitrus, and I will be satisfied.

    More like a poor man's Al Jefferson. He looks like a banger in the post. From the highlight reel he doesn't look bad for a center.
