Re: The Official Washington Wizards Thread
As long as we can get John Jenkins or even Doron Lamb with our 2nd pick i'll be estactic. I would'nt be shocked at all to see Jenkins become the best 2 guard from this draft. Even if we draft Beal i'd double up. Let Crawford be a combo guard he is better with the ball in hand anyway.
Re: The Official Washington Wizards Thread
Sullinger is going to have to earn everything he gets in the NBA. I think he's going to be a terrific offensive big and rebounder. A guy like that isn't worth a lottery pick? But Dion Waiters is a top ten lock?
Re: The Official Washington Wizards Thread
Can you imagine Sullinger on a team like OKC? Whoa....
Re: The Official Washington Wizards Thread
ESPN Insider has us taking Beal, so I guess we're getting Beal. I hope he pairs with Wall well.

Or in Miami? Ugh. He'd actually be pretty perfect in either of those places. They don't need the help.
Re: The Official Washington Wizards Thread
I doubt Sully slips past Cleveland or even Denver. His production will be too much to pass up. Just another poster boy for why you should come out when your stock is high.

If he's falling for medical reasons, they would have come out last year too. If anything, he's a better prospect than he was last season because he showed off a little more ability to face up and shoot this year.

His stock was still high this year, that medical report was gonna come out either way

It was a much weaker draft and I'm positive he would have gone higher last year, red flagged or not.
Re: The Official Washington Wizards Thread
I'm seeing in this thread talks of getting #6 and 11 from Portland, is there any validity to this or is it pure speculation?
Re: The Official Washington Wizards Thread
I'm right back where I was a few weeks ago. I want MKG. I don't mind Beal, but I think MKG has more potential to be a star.
Re: The Official Washington Wizards Thread
I remember when Dejuan Blair was supposed to be a lottery pick.
Re: The Official Washington Wizards Thread
Saw this on BF...it's in regards to the "rumors" of the #3 + Blatche for #6 + Matthews.
Quote:
This is an Acorn 5 situation! An idea is floating around, consisting of flipping Andray Blatche and the #3 pick to the Trail Blazers for Wesley Matthews and the #6. In principle, this is quite literally one of the worst things I have ever heard. In honesty, it isn't even the worst thing I heard this past week. Compromising the last major draft asset DC is likely to see for quite some time so we don't have watch a cancerous contract walk for nothing? That's worse than nothing. I hope it isn't real.

I agree with this...trading the #3 JUST to get rid of Blatche is idiotic.
Anyways...I saw that the T-Wolves traded the #18 pick to the Rockets for Chase Budinger. They now have the #14, #16, and #18....There is no doubt in my mind they are gearing up for a HUGE draft-day trade for Dwight Howard.
*edit*
Just came across this...

• Back to the Lakers. If the Cavs are able to move up and nab Beal at No. 2, there’s talk the Lakers would be willing to make life easy for the Wizards and help them move out of the third spot. It would likely take power forward Pau Gasol. Far-fetched for now, but don’t be surprised if it’s something that’s explored in the right situation.
• Wizards big man Andray Blatche could also be part of that, or another, trade.

If this were to happen....S-M-H
Re: The Official Washington Wizards Thread
HELLL NO for Pau, but if it were bynum...
Re: The Official Washington Wizards Thread
Getting Dwight out of the EC will help. We're looking at possibly Orlando and Boston missing the playoffs next year.
