I've never felt as bad as I did on draft night when GSW selected Curry (he made it so close) and then we draft Hill! Talk about a disastrous turn of events.
I thought Felton had a chance... #s close to where Nash was at same point in their careers. But NASH is one of a kind, right?
As for this draft... MAN, if we could get Kyrie Irving (he is Rod Strickland all over again). Wont happen though. I will live with Walker QUICK) or Federette (SHOOTER) though.
One of those and DeAndre Jordan or Marc Gasol?
So, that's what we have... Let Billups walk and get a BIG or keep Billups and hope Jerome Jordan worked hard this winter.
Exactly. We need to powermove this draft for a PG (can we do that one goddamn time?), and get at least one righteous big.
We must do this, even if it means letting Billups go, depending on how we look rest of season/playoffs. It'll be a judgment call on whether we can have a true shot at contending next yr by essentially standing PAT.
We have the least productive 5 in the entire NBA. On a team where our greatest weakness is most effected by that very position.
Irivng is indeed sick, but right now I'd salivate if we could secure Kemba (or Jimmers). The way Douglas is progressing, a Douglas+Jimmers tagteam can be good enough on this team, even in year 1.
Jordan is Jeffries...plus an extra 10points, a block and a half, 5+ boards, the ability to dominate, and altogether superior defense and enforcing abilities,
Imagine how wed look if that man and his production would be replacing Jeffries each and every game....
