what do you all think of Maurice Harkless? Seems like a poor mans MKG, I wouldn't mind trading to get him

[Fight4RGIII]

I think we are in a good position to take whoever falls to 32, preferably the best SF prospect.

Man, the 2012 draft page on Wikipedia is getting consistently hacked.

I'm probably dreaming, but Sully or Q Miller being there at 32 would make this such an exciting class.

Lamb is really dropping.

Also, what a tumble for PJIII. He should have come out last year.

Who let Wittman out of the basement again?

I was kind of hoping he'd say something crazy. He's such a vanilla personality.

There is every chance in the world Lamb's career gets burned from lack of opportunity if he stays in Houston.

I'd be disappointed if I was Blazers fan right now.

I actually didn't like what he said. I wanted him to say that the Wizard will coach him up on things he has to get better on. I'm nitpicking but it's what I like to hear from coaches considering the track record the Wiz currently have on young players getting better.

Evan Fournier is another player I'd be interested in the second round. I read he wants to come over right away, but I wonder if he could stay in Poitiers for another year? Be good for our current roster and cap situation.

This may be a big reach but he kind of seems like a Drazen Petrovic. Looks like him and same cockiness and wild competitiveness.

Glad we got Beal. Good pick.

Austin Rivers's sister though....hooooooooly

They really hated Felton and they liked Lillard.

The thing is the Blazers didn't want to commit to a true rebuild. LA only has three more seasons with them before UFA. They had to start winning in the meantime to try and keep him. No real need to take Barnes with Batum already set to make so much money. Hence passing on Drummond.

Wow about Phoenix. I bet they wanted Lamb. But Marshall could be tutored by one of the best to ever do it.

I can understand the Lillard selection, its the Leonard one that makes me scratch my head.

Leonard has a lot of Spencer Hawes in him to me. Smart kid though and a really good athlete. Just didn't get the feeling he was the sum of his parts though.

Seems a bit redundant to me. That team is all defensive players and shot blockers except for Monta Ellis.

Woah. Jay Bilas just quoted Bill Simmons on draft night.

The world will in fact be ending soon.

Sixers take Harkless
