a problem that i see with rubio is not that he won't end up being good, but as previously stated, the abundance of solid pg prospects in this draft, isrubio that much better than maynor or mills... i mean we are talking a sure top 3 talent to late first round... i dont know i just don't see that... evenflynn, teague, holliday, so many potentially good pgs here its gonna be tough for rubio to really prove hes worth that top 3 pick unless he really puts upgreat numbers and great results wouldnt you guys agree?

Word is the Mavericks are itching to add a real point guard in this draft... And they're looking at moving WAY up to do so...

Knicks need to trade their first, second, and $3mill to Memphis to get Rubio. Best bet.

Yep. So, Mayo probably won't be available til' sometime around 2016 or 2017 when Memphis will probably end up having a championship or two.

Honest question....what seperates DeJuan Blair from Michael Sweetney and Robert Traylor? I just see a lot of red flags w. this pick....maybe at best, he can belike Big Baby....i dunno...

I feel bad for any team taking Blair that doesn't already have a dominant big man like KG, Duncan or Nowitzki.

Well to play devils advocate he rebounds at a far far higher rate than Traylor, Sweteny, Big Baby ever did and his back to the basketgame is alsomore dvanced than any of those guys. I think Paul Milsap is a far more acutrate comprison and probably how is career will turn out if he lands in the rightsituations.
The Toronto Raptors with an excess of big guys is not one of them.
The combine is coming up in a couple days who is going to improve there stock the most?
If Blair mesures out badly his stock will plummet.

QFT.
I think Blair will measure out pretty well since he is losing weight now. He will definitely surpass most draftees in the strength category. Determining hisheight, vertical and agility will be questionable even though him losing weight will probably increase those categories (with the exception of height). He willbe pretty average IMO, and not one of the bottom 10 in terms of results. I wouldn't waste a lottery pick on him, but somewhere in the late teens or early20's fits him.

I don't think Blair is as athletic as Millsap is.

Paul Milsap posted a 32 inch vertical and was one of the lowest rated power forwards athletically how much worse could blair be?

How about we go look at video of both and stop looking at numbers posted at the combine?

I have never, ever, ever, ever, ever in my 2 years of watching Dejuan Blair seen him explode off the ground and dunk over someone.
Let alone a near 7 footer.

Millsap is more athletic... But at the same time, Blair is more advanced offensively than Millsap was when he came out... And he'll be 2+ years younger atthe time he'll be drafted...
If Blair measures out any lower than the 6'7 he's listed at, he's got no shot... Measurements are going to be HUGE for him... People know he canplay, but nobody is wasting their time with a 6'6 power forward that has no chance of succeeding out on the perimeter...
