We have a roster full of guys with quickness who can throw it down.

I want to see highlights of the guy hitting open jumpshots

Meh, the pick would have had an uphill battle just to make the roster as the last guy on the bench. At least picking a guy on a Euro team means we can stash him in case we actually need him down the line.

No rookie second round shooter would be as good or as valuable a shooter as the most vet minimum Cartier Martinesque shooter we could pick up for next to nothing in FA.

Stashing Euros can be very good business. Look at how often San Antonio does it.

I'd take Machado or Teague.

Dude you know your ****

Who The Heck is Tomas Satoransky

[Thinking Skins]

I'm OK with that. About to go look up highlight clips for him. From what they showed it looks like the dude has some quickness and can throw it down.

Quincy Miller made a mistake coming out this year.

A mistake that we could have benefited from. Ah well though. I don't care too much any more. He's coming off an injury so maybe he's not back yet or maybe he'll never be back. I will be sad if he or Lamb turns out to be better than this guy we drafted though. But you never know in a draft.

[MattFancy]

No he isn't. Trust me, I watched him because he had III in his name like RG3. I kept an eye on him during the college basketball season. He wasn't that good this season. He started off well but tapered off.

I just don't see the talent there anymore.

Same could be said for Harrison Barnes. Jones will be fine.

[Skin'emAlive]

Well, Ernie has always been one for tradition.

The bulletsforever thread descends into madness right after that 2nd pick. I enjoyed Jim Americas prediction just before the pick.

LOL what's with the histrionics guys? It's a second round pick in the NBA draft. You all realize these picks are worth exactly nothing and have like a -28% hit rate right?

great

next year we should just abdicate our 2nd round picks.

"Satoransky is very talented guard who possesses standout athletic ability by European standards. (He was a two-time Slam Dunk Contest champion while playing in the NBL, and he also won the ACB League Slam Dunk Contest in 2010.)" http://www.truthaboutit.net/2012/06/...nba-draft.html

Sign Him!!!!!!!!!!! (sarcasm

[stevemcqueen1]

Same could be said for Harrison Barnes. Jones will be fine.

Barnes was a much, much better collegiate player than Jones.

OKC is pretty much the only team I could see PJIII being successful on. He's a tin man through and through.

[AsiaticSkinsFan]

And also because he plays like a scrub.

in fairness to dude, that idiot Scott Drew played him out of position the last two years.

But he drifts. He is a top 5 pick talent tho. OKC got a steal.

[StillUnknown]

Ernie said Satoransky will stay in Europe for 2 years.

[Skin'emAlive]

My God... Sign this Man!!

Barnes obviously isnt tho

It'd probably be just as productive.

How many 2nd rounders become long term contributors for NBA teams. 8 or 9 a decade?

They could honestly do away with the second round and it would probably be beneficial for the players going in that range. At least they could negotiate freely with whoever they wanted.
