Mauro Pedrosa 1,031 Report post Posted April 5, 2018 But yes, I'm not complaining about adding a strong defensive C. At least we'd have an identity. Our team for the last 6 years has just looked anarchic, and most importantly: bad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really like Young but I think our offense is so bad that he wouldn't fix our problems by himself. I'd still like to have a SG that could create off the dribble to go along with Young, Isaac, Gordon and Birch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m pretty sure these guys won’t start out of the gate, but if Gordon evolves and TRoss can get his stroke back, we’ll definitely need a scoring point. I also think JI has potential to have an effective 3 ball, not sure about his post threat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love Young and I've been trolling a bit lately about him but I honestly won't be mad with anyone we pick unless it's Wendal Carter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justin Jaudon 221 Report post Posted April 5, 2018 To the Allen Iverson point: He was lucky to make it to the finals when he did. Terrible Eastern Conference that also let in the Knicks without Ewing and the Nets twice in that era. Seriously, regardless of era, he was overrated. His efficiency didn't measure up to other guys of his time. He defended absurdly well for a guy his size, though. Basically, Iverson was just Kyrie's handles with the rest of Monte Ellis' offense, and Avery Bradley's defense, and smaller than all those guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like drafting an offensive guard in the top 10 of the NFL draft. He's going to be that guy that bloggers write about for years "Carter is better than you think. Here's why" Bleh.

But people don't realize how sucky the league was then especially compared to now. Our McGrady teams wouldn't even sniff the playoffs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
