OrlandoNKentucky 54 Report post Posted February 25, 2010 Now, I may not know as much as some of you when it comes to the Magic, but the one thing I do know is Kentucky basketball. Cousins is not a bad guy. Yes, he had some temper issues at the beginning of the season, but he doesnt let it affect him that much anymore. He has grown up a lot and I personally think he needs to stay at Kentucky for another year to work on not fouling as much. But don't judge Demarcus just because he was a little rough around the edges in the beginning. However, that is a mute point. Cousins will be a top 5 pick. I think Lucas (Michigan State) is a possibility and a good one at that. I've always liked him. I think Pittman (Texas) is also another good possibility for another big man. But here is someone who is predicted to be a late 1st round pick that not many people are talking about. Patrick Patterson. I know I'm biased, but Patterson is a guy who will work really hard and gets the sloppy buckets. Also this season he has shown that he can step out and shoot the 3 if he needs to. Anyone like Patterson? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EnFuego 1 Report post Posted February 25, 2010 My best guess would be that the pick gets traded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Durantuala35 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2010 I go on nba draft net sometimes; I was looking at a 2011 mock where they had us getting that Jeremy Tyler. Remember him? he dropped out of high school after his JR year to play pro ball in Europe? He hasn't fared to well so far. But the same thing happened to Brandon Jennings. Right now he is considered to be a late first but once next year comes around he will be a lottery pick. The upside with Tyler is unreal. Reminds me of a Amare Stoudamire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shine88 89 Report post Posted February 25, 2010 Damion James from Texas. He's pretty much a rich man Matt Barnes. Or his teammate Avery Bradley. We might have to trade up for him though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
My 6th Rebuild 6 Report post Posted February 25, 2010 We need to draft the next available Spaniard ASAP!!! On a free agency note, I would not mind making a run at Manu. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reminds me of a Amare Stoudamire It could work, like you said, Jennings was awful in Europe. Then again, Jennings has slipped incredibly as the year has gone by, but a lot of that has to do with the defense keying on him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That guy is 6'0 which means he is actually 5'11, just like Jameer. If we draft a PG, it should be one with more size, like 6'3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tank Vogel 191 Report post Posted February 25, 2010 Sherron Collins looks like a Jameer clone. I like James Anderson from OK St. NBA Draft.net has him at 13, Draft Express has him at 29, and he isn't listed in HoopsHype's mock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lucas' measurables are from freshman year so its possible that he's grown or that he's a legit 6'0. Dude's an amazing defender too. Not to mention jameer's actual combine numbers is 5'11 without shoes on, 6'0.25 with shoes on. I really want us to draft another position though. I want us to get Kemba Walker next draft.
