Exactly. Its all in fun.

What fun is it to make predictions if we can't look at them later? Especially when some people like to be dickheads when getting the their point across.

If you cant handle your terrible predictions being made fun of, then stop calling people names and making stupid predictions.

I'd definitely draft Enes Kanter at 35, hype him as White Shaq, start him for fifteen games hoping it will light a fire under Fesenko, and then trade his *** for a real prospect. Fes > Kosta Kanter. He's a lottery gamble, not a lottery pick.

Enes was the largest guy on the floor at the NHS and got a lot of easy buckets from good setups. Nothing impressed me. He won't get any of that in the NBA and is way too slow to be a defensive threat.

Idoit.
 
Yeah, Irving's stats look pretty good, though his assists could be higher for a point guard. Not sure if that's his fault or if he has nobody to pass to. I guess a better question would be whether Enes is the best big man drafted. Sure, let's give it a few more years.
 
I never said I'd take Biyombo over Kanter RIGHT NOW. I said I'd like to have Biyombo on our team. Reasonin' skillz.

Biyombo is raw as hell, but he still has an excellent chance at being a real game-changer on D.
 
I think the Bobcats should have let Biyombo stay in Europe for a couple of a years. They are doing a **** job at developing him and it has to hurt when you play on the worst team in the league that is making 0 strides towards anything.
 
I liked Biyombo but not at 3. I would have taken him at 12 but Burks is great, I like him to. If we could get Biyombo in a salary dump trade to back up Favors after Millsap and/or Al are gone, I'd do it. Imagine him going down to Santa Barbara and working on his game. I think it'd be great for the team. However I doubt they let him go.
 
I voted for #4. I know I was high on Kyrie Irving and on Derrick Williams, but I honestly can't remember who I had rated as #3.

For Biyombo type players it takes more time to adapt NBA. Asik who i think close to Biyombo with his style (bad hands, excelent defender, shot blocker/changer) he was raw like him.. but after he played for years in Europe when he came to NBA at his age 24 he was ready like a boss.

Fair point. Although drafting a player at #7 that takes 5 years just to be Asik isn't anything to be overly proud of.

Really?

Asik is a top 3 rebounder in the NBA that plays great defense and can block shots.

He is averaging like 11 and 12 and is definitely a DPOY candidate.

The Bobcats should be happy if Biyombo could become this good.

It could be a fair deal though considering how many busts we experienced over the years at big men category. Asik is 2nd at rebounding right now and he is one of the best PnR, iso defenders (he got quick feets thats why he can even stay in front of much smaller players) and post defenders. I would take him at 7 easily if i could predict the outcome would be like that.

And as underKANTER mentioned he is swiftly improving offensively. No one would've guessed he would even average double digits on scoring when he first came to Houston.
 
I didn't realize Asik was almost 11 ppg thought he was around 8. So, yeah, if they stick with Biyombo and he turns out to be Asik it would be a very solid pick.

I'd be happy with Kanter, at least from picks 3 on. He does seem to have that to the basket sort of skill that just comes naturally, and has a good enough jumper to keep teams honest.

All that being said, since there is really no sure thing in this draft except for maybe Irving, I'm really trying to stay optimistic and see the positives of all the prospects. They all seem to have some positives that I can hang my hat on.

Well my safe crappy opinion has at least seemed to of held up haha. Though now I'd much rather have Kanter than Derrick Williams.

Probably Knight. At least that's who I actually wanted the Jazz to draft, mostly because PG just seemed like a dire need (still does), but am now happy they picked Kanter instead.
