Draft Night Drama - GDT
Re: Draft Night Drama - GDT
Bolomboy averaged 12.6 rebounds per game in 31 minutes. I don't care what his competition was, that's impressive when you also consider that he tested out as perhaps the best athlete in the combine. He also shot 36.4% from behind the arc. He won't go undrafted. Time to buy back into the draft and grab him.
Gary Payton II averaged 7.8 rebounds per game, which is incredible for a PG. He also averaged 5 assists and 2.5 stills -- a chip off the old block. He's not a 3-point shooter, but he shot 48.6% from the field. If not Bolomboy, I'd buy back in and grab this guy. I don't think he'll go undrafted.
Bentil would be a step up from Payne. He might be undrafted, but why take a chance. If we don't buy back in for one of the above two, then buy back in for this guy.

Lol, good call Volans. I thought he was a pretty well respected front office guy/GM. Surprised he never got another job after Portland.

I like Payton but he sorta seems like a Poor Man's Dunn. I think I would go another direction/diversify if we were going to add another young player.

Bolomboy, Dude is a beast! I know that the Wolves were really interested in Bentil but I feel the guy is not specialized enough for a roster spot. Worth buying a second? Not sure!

And once again the Celtics come out of the draft with most of their picks and no deal. I think their draft didn't add much to the asset pool either. Just goes to show a war chest isn't always great value if the rest of the league just makes you use all your picks.

I would of been very excited to add Deyonta Davis. Any long shot blocker type players left?

Some of the biggest Names left with 12 to go: Bentil, Payton, Cornelie, Bolomboy, Robert Carter, Felder, Gbinjie, Uthoff, Wiltjer
Re: Draft Night Drama - GDT
Bentil might not be worth buying back into the draft. But Bolomboy definitely is. I agree with Monster that Payton might be a bit too much like Dunn, but I like talent and he's be a big improvement on Jones as a 3rd PG. You can never have too much talent.

I'll say this again even though I didn't watch all of it or pay close attention all the time I was really impressed with Crean. Sometimes Inwished they had all shut up and just let Crean go to the board and break down each guy's game. I bet alotmof people watching probably are basketball junkies and know all the stuff the other guys were saying anyway let Crean tell us something we didn't already know or at least save us from Bobby Marks.
