I have studied this draft thick and thin.
Its pretty simple to me. Throughout round 1 possibly all the way down to 30-37 you will be ale to find quality big men. Where we sit on top --of the HIGHEST quality potential franchise changing qualities. That is why i suggested going all in on this draft and acquiring another #1 IF it makes sense in how the draft unfoldswe can "potentially" rebuild the frontcourt for years AND both players are cost restricted for 4 which is also nice.
In round 2 there is a BEVY of guards who have good chances of panning out very well in the NBA. Im sure fishmike and a few others remember way back when I called for the Knicks to take Michael Redd on the old Knicks forums and we ended up taking Lavar Postell #39 in 2000 yep 15 years ago.
Well there are good 2 guards(also combo which is what we might want) in this second round. Any Micahel redd's doubt that but there is going to be teams who score BIG in RD 2 in the guard DEPT.
I like that we tried last year--I like that we made an attempt and were focused on players and were able to actually pin out the ones we wanted. I think it's clear both players are 2nd round skill players at this point--so far nothing earned but the attempt but to me thats ok. We continued to try and brought in Wear than galloway--both worthy chances at it looks like we might have got 1 nice player. Thats probably the correct ratio anyway thats your odds in round #2 probably 25%. I think the odds in this 2nd round may be higher--perhaps as 1/3 and even undrafted. There will be 1 out of every 3 players who make the NBA longer term and help clubs and out of those 10-12 2-3 should be really good.
