2012 NBA Draft Thread

[govols120]

How in the world does someone who never started a game in college get drafted fourth? Oh, Cavs.

For god sakes I want to put an ice pick in my head listening to these boring commentators, especially that girl. Jay Bilas is the exception.

You do realize she was talking to a 9 year old

Portland takes Lillard @ #6

 

[GahLee]

i think its a damn good draft

alot of good players in the first round

Lots of solid role players.

 

[RikidyBones]

Damian Lillard? Ok. Not ...bad.

 

[RikidyBones]

Lots of solid role players.

Not as many "stars"

 

[govols120]

Lillard is awesome. Whether or not it translates to the NBA is a different story, but he works harder than almost any athlete out there.

 

[YankeeVol]

I like Waiters, just not at #4

 

[VolsFan4Ever-11]

Good pick by Portland

 

[underscore]

Lots of "projects" to be drafted in the first round this year.

 

[YankeeVol]

Good pick by Portland

I like it as well

 

[RikidyBones]

That statistical analysis is intense.

 

[govols120]

Just going to say it...I will be utterly shocked if Drummond isn't the biggest bust of this draft. You don't get by with zero work ethic in the NBA.

Really deep stuff

Him or Barnes. I still think Barnes will be huge bust.

 

[VolsFan4Ever-11]

And there is your biggest bust of the draft. Book it

 

[RikidyBones]

Him or Barnes. I still think Barnes will be huge bust.

There goes ya boy to GS

 

[govols120]

Barnes is mostly just very unlikable. I saw an article comparing him to Ricky Davis with a lot more hype, and I'm inclined to agree.

 

[RikidyBones]

While we are stating busts. I think no matter where Zeller goes, he will bust. The kid is just not an NBA player. Tyler Hansbrough is better than he is and I think very little of Tyler.

Might be the worse comparison ever.

He's a very good athlete with good size and a nice jumpshot.

He will do fine in the NBA.

 

[UTCVol]

I just don't understand why Drummond is so highly regarded.

 

[GahLee]

Oh my god!

Zeller is already a better player than Hansborough.

What? Zeller is a much better NBA prospect. Hansbrough was an undersized flopper. Zeller is legit 7 ft and can get up and down the floor.

Raptors take Terrence Ross @ #8

Another puzzling pick
