Will be interesting to see where the swing votes for eliminated players wind up as this goes on.

DD

If I had to project what i think Demar Derozan *could* do in this offense and who he looks similar to I would say Andre Igudola. I think he could shoot 50% but average a tad more than Igudola--as in the 22-23 point range with 6-7 rebounds 3-4 assists. Thats pretty much a star type player in the NBA

i can see that... i made Jason Richardson comparisons before & that's just about what he was at his very peak... i think it'll take DD several years to break the 20 ppg. barrier but he'll eventually do it... my guess is if he's on the Knicks & they feature him as 1 of their scorers he'll put up around Wilson Chandler type numbers his first year... if he plays off the bench (i can't imagine why they wouldn't start the kid) then it'll take a year for him to get acclimated, but i definitely think he's got Allstar talent in him for sure.

I think he will still be a good ballplayer.


My guess with this Curry is in gig--that the Knicks may been involved. Curry in many ways is the Gallinari of the 1 position. Cerebral playmaker with a fundamental shot--he seemed like he might be headed back for school-and something made him stop--maybe the Knicks?

once again, Curry is my pick, but it seems like he is on his way out of this elimination tourney after this round

If the Knicks pick at 8, there is a very good chance he'll be the pick.

I watched parts of maybe four playoff games and I kept thinking, hmmmm, I can't think of another college player I'd rather see playing right now than Curry. However, I think Jennings or Evans is going to be the better player in four years or so.

A lot of choices from the PG position in this draft. You watch Tony Parker and then guys like Jeff Teague and Johnny Flynn might make a lot of sense. This is like last years draft with C--there are a lot of choices and good players but this time they are mostly Gs.

Knicksfan, I would love Rubio too btw, but he wasn't in the game because he seems highly likely to be picked way before 8 (which is where the game is intended to have us picking).

You can check the first round for a more complete explanation.
