Who Do The Raps Draft?
if we keep our pick (17th overall) who do you guys think that we should draft? I'm leaning towards Kevin Love (if he's still available) or maybe Koufos from Ohio State

Re: Who Do The Raps Draft?
Love? Oh please draft a 3rd PF in a row with our 1rst draft picks.
Love is too slow to be our answer at the 3 and he sure as hell isn't our answer at the 5.
vote = Hibbert

Re: Who Do The Raps Draft?
javale mcgee
say no to Koufos
i'd rather have Darell Arthur before kufi, he's the better of the Kansas bigmen.
Kev-Love isnt right for our team, the more you see Hibbert, the less you like him as a player. if a trade does not go down; i can still see CDR, tyler smith or B.Rush here, could have some really great workouts. we'll never know until the real evaluations start

Re: Who Do The Raps Draft?
We need low post presence on both ends of the floor
We need a big body that will bang
We need shot blocking presence
Hibbert will avg 10 boards a game if he starts in the NBA. Gtown rebound very well as a team so that's why his stats aren't that high. As big as he is, he isn't dead slow either.
My only concern with him is foul trouble. In the past 2 years Gtown lost cuz he got into foul trouble but anybody who watched the game knows that in each game 2-3 calls were questionable.

Hibbert would be a smart pick if he's there.

Re: Who Do The Raps Draft?
Roy Hibbert's a joke. No thank you to him.
JaVale McGee is going to be gone before 17 once the draft workouts are finished. He's just an animal and an athletic freak. If we do manage to snag him, hallelujiah.
Donte Greene doesn't give us that slasher we always ***** about from the 3. That's just not his game. He's got the tools to be one (ala Jamario), but he's not comfortable doing so. A Rashard Lewis-type player is not what we need. If we can't re-invent the wheel with his guy's offensive instincts, then we're screwed.
I'm eyeing Davon Jefferson as a possible candidate. He's a freak athlete, loves to get to the rim and makes us tougher. Robin Lopez would be another solid pick seeing as he can play the 5, he rebounds and he is a very good defender as well as capable shot blocker.
My personal opinion is that we need to get blacker in order to shed our label of being "soft". Some may not agree with this but it's the truth.
