Not like we have a draft pick.

So DraftExpress has the Wolves taking Quincy Miller in their latest mock.

What's the story on this dude?

His name is quincy. Sounds like a guy with strong basketball IQ and fundamentals that needs to work on his conditioning and willingness to attack the basket and draw contact.


Note: analysis purely based on player name being "Quincy Miller"

Lots of upside.

But who is going to want to take on chronic loser Carmelo or Amare's knees?

But is he long and athletic? David Kahn needs to know.

Top prospect a couple years ago, tore his ACL, has fallen off a bit since. He's got a lot of nice fakes that he can use in the post and in isolation as well as good touch and decent passing. Issue is mostly on defense, too slow to guard SFs, too weak to guard PFs, doesn't seem to value defense much and loses focus a lot. He could be an interesting player off the bench to use a stretch 4 in small-ball lineups, a playmaking PF for bench units like Odom, or a postup SF against wings who can't score. If he regains his quickness or can put on a lot of muscle, he could be a pretty good starter.

Nah, the tabloids seem to instead.

His athleticism is below average so I don't know. Super long though, 6'10 with a 7'5 wingspan. He was Baylor's 5th best player last year so his draft status won't be because of his production though.

I'm convinced the Wolves should stay far away now.

Harden and the Brow made the Olympic team.

IWTMB should do draft profiles for the entire first round

 

[fredrancour]

Marvelous thread title. I just got called insane for the way it made me laugh.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

if the Bobcats win the lottery and get the first pick, Bynum for the first pick...do you do it if you are LA? Do you do it if you are Charlotte?

Is there another Bynum I'm unaware of?

Other than Andrew "Big Sexy, best Center in the game, greatest defensive presence since Hakeem" Bynum? No.

That would be rad.

Add this to the OP:

Sorry, DY.

Came in here to say watup to Knicks-age. GG yall.

Lakers do it in three seconds, Bobcats don't ever because Bynum would leave next season.

 

[DominoKid]

Harrison Barnes future. I'm telling all my friends here to prepare for the inevitable.

 

[SoulPlaya]

I would like to reserve a seat here for the Boozer Defense Force.

If anyone drafts or sign Ashton Gibbs, they are stupid.

You can be the first Mavs off season poster! We're technically still in the playoffs!!

Don't count us out just yet.

Praying to the basketball gods daily so the Warriors can perhaps keep their draft pick..

They answered you in advance. You kept it.

 

[Rodeo Clown]

They only won the coin flip. Someone could still jump them in the lottery and send the pick back to Utah.

 

[alr1ght]

Please fix the lottery again, Lord Stern. thanx.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Yeah, top 3 would be nice for a new stadium.

Blackace can we just get a name change for this guy to be Jay Bilas? IWMTB is such a handful to type out.

Seriously though I think Quincy is a good player. I really think he could have taken advantage of an extra year in college but I guess I see why he came out. Kind of a worthless pick for the Pups though given the log jam at at SF..

 

[Bay Maximus]

There is only one man that stand between the Bulls and that picture.

I would like to reserve a seat here for the Boozer Defense Force.

It has begun. I'm deeply saddened that I cannot watch the game tonight, but I rest assured knowing CBDF and the Bulls are in good hands.

 

[Alrix]

I thought this years pick was a swap deal with Houston? So we just keep whichever pick was lower?

 

[Rodeo Clown]

Jon Krawczynski ‏ @APkrawczynski

#TWolves owner Glen Taylor tells AP he has started looking for an eventual successor, someone who will keep team in MN

Glen Taylor says he's had a number of offers to buy #TWolves, but won't sell to group that wants to move it.

I promised myself I wouldn't cry.

I'm pretty sure the Knicks have a 2nd rounder don't they?

Some team will need an extra body for Summer League....
