Top three picks set?

Slow day, so why not?

Who is your ROY nominee?
I'm going to throw in my dark horse right now Will Barton from Memphis. You heard it first here LOL.

Choose Very Carefully, Bros.

Jonas Valanciunas

If the Bobcats dont trade #2 (which is what most ppl would like) then I'd say T.Rob is the front runner right now with MKG second but Beal very close behind. T.Rob & Barnes are in for workouts today...MKG & Beal were very impressive on Tues. Would be surprised if anyone outside those 4 were chosen

"Top Three Picks Set?"

Well obviously not when words like "likely" and "if" and multiple scenarios are mentioned. It's like editors don't even try anymore.

Agree 1000% he's this years rookie of the year... unless Lillard ends up getting drafted by the Raptors then it'll be a race between them two..

So basically whoever the Canadians draft, is the ROY, in your opinion?

Davis will be a stud. A franchise player. Athletic, wing span, former guard so can handle the ball better than most bigs, can already shoot from 15, blocks shots. Nobody in this draft is even close to him. Needs to add muscle and refine his offense.

+1

Davis will be the ROY.

On a serious note, I just saw some highlights of Jonas Valanciunas. Looks like a good finisher at the rim, but has zero post moves. Another front-facing center from Europe.

Not saying he's not talented, but I'm skeptical about his ability to stay with NBA bigs with limited foot work. he has a LONG ways to go before he can compete with NBA bigs.

I really want lillard to get past Portland so the raps can take him. If they do get him tho i think we will hold onto Jose and bring lillard of the bench his first year. from the way BC and Casey have been talking it sounds like the last thing they would want would be rookies starting at center and PG. JV starts for sure but if we hold onto the 8th pick i think that player will be a reserve next yr. I think it'll be JV/Davis for ROY

Davis will be number one, that is the only thing that people can count on. I have heard trades for #2, Barnes, Beal, MKG, Robinson, Drummond....but knowing MJ he will draft wrong. Loved him as a player, but his draft of Kwame Brown and trade of Rip Hamilton for Jerry Stackhouse are two very bad trades.

With the Wiz making a trade for a PF and SF, I expect them to be going towards Beal in the draft.

This is the joy of the draft...trades, rumours, mock drafts. A team can make themselves much better with one trade or draft. The Raptors one year drafted Rafael Arauju instead of Iggy. Iggy torches them every game, and Arauju is not in the league.

I doubt davis will have the #s to win ROY(not that anyone really cares about that award)he is a project, it will take him time to develop, gain weight and he was a basket defender in college- if he is put on the perimiter, guarding mobile 4s there is no telling how he will do-If NO is sure they are taking him #1- he needs to be a CENTERotherwise- there are better prospects that will have more impact sooner

I don't see him playing center if at all his rookie year and that would be desperation. It will be interesting to see if Kaman stays now that he is a free agent. I don't know if Davis will have the numbers to get the ROY though. I am especting numbers very similar to KG's rookie year. 10-11 PPG, 7 Rpg and maybe 1.5 BPG. NO will go Davis and the best wing avalible they need so much help
