9: Marcus Morris

A few weeks ago I was completely against taking Morris here, but the more highlights I watch the more I come to like him. He seems good at getting offensive rebounds and isn't afraid to go back up with it. I've also seen him operating from the top of the key some and he has a smooth jumper. He could be a nice, versatile player for us.

19: Marshon Brooks or Shelvin Mack

Brooks if he's there, but with how he has been performing as of late I think it's 50/50. We need an energetic scorer coming off the bench to provide a nice backup behind Hendo.

I wouldn't mind a Euro center either or Tristan Thompson at 9. Obviously if Kawhi Leonard is there we grab him but that is highly unlikely. I like Morris's versatility a lot, I didn't know he played like that honestly.

My incredible interest in this draft has me looking up mock drafts on a daily basis. It has become evident to me that beyond the first two picks. Nobody has a clue what is going to happen.

Honestly I would be happy with a plethora of people.

At 9 I would say my top 3 are as follows

1. Kemba Walker (Yes there are mocks out there that say he could fall to us although unlikely)

2. Alec Burks

3. Jordan Hamilton

I honestly don't see whats so great about Marcus Morris and I would be OK with us picking him but I would feel like we missed an opportunity to have something better.

At 19 it goes

1. Bismack Biyombo

2. Marshon Brooks

3. Chris Singleton

4. Nikola Vucevic

Vucevic has been shooting up boards and I personally think he would be a very nice center for us.

There one player that I would just be infuriated with us selecting is Jimmer Fredette. I think he is going to be an absolute scrub in the NBA, feel free to hate.

Rick Bonnell was on Busting Loose with Frank and Moose (WFNZ) yesterday and said the cats really like Singleton (F-FSU), Brooks (G-Prov), and Vucevic (C-USC)..fwiw..Singleton paried with Hendo would make one of the best defensive shooting guard/small forward combo's in the league...

Agreed. Too bad the Bobs would lose most games 70-65 with a lineup featuring Hendo and Singleton. If Boris loses his job to Tyrus and Kwame is still the starter at C, yikes! That team couldn't score!

I agree, but hopefully hendo can build his offensive rep into a viable second option. Marshon brooks makes more sense to me though

Whatever nets us a scorer and bigman. SF and C prefered....

9.1 Kawhi Leonard SF * will probably be off the board

9.2 Chris Singleton SF * im high on him

9.3 Marcus Morris PF * solid ready to contribute right away

9.4 Jordan Hamilton SF * possibly the best scorer in the draft

9.5 Tristan Thompson PF * reminds me of Tyrus Thomas

19.1 Bismack Biyombo PF/C * a steal if he is still here

19.2 Marshon Brooks SG * one of the best scorers in draft

19.3 Kenneth Faried PF/C * hustle, simply put

19.4 Klay Thompson SG * the 3 pt shooter Silas wants

19.5 Nikola Vucevic PF/C * potential, simply put

I'm really warming up to the idea of Chris Singleton at number 9. Singleton is tabbed as the best defensive player in the draft and from what I've read he has a decent offensive game, just had trouble showcasing it in the slow FSU offense. Either way, he could work on his offensive game similar to Hendo.

At 19 I would be happy with Marshon Brooks or Nikola Vucevic. Brooks could be the dynamic scorer we need to build around or Vucevic could be the solid (probably not a superstar but a solid rebounder and scorer) to hold down the C position. If we could only get both somehow...

      cam Newton makes his return to Madden football

      By micnificent28 · Posted

      Little light hearted topic.. For whatever reason Cam Newton doesn't appear in Madden ultimate team every year for whatever reason like most legends. I personally believe it's due to them robbing him of appearing on the cover of the video game series during his peak years winning NFL rookie of the year and the MVP super bowl run.  Needless to say I'm a huge Competitive Madden ultimate team player spending hours of days crunching numbers and churning roster management. When this was announced it was a lightening rod in the Madden community. Competitive players know Newton is a game changer.. Your talking fastest quarterback in the game and highest throwing power in the game when he drops. That a long with. Unheard of ability at quarterback like freight train the ability to run over linebacker and corners and I was stoked. I m ashamed to say how much money threw at the game to try to pull newton and failed  But it's a big deal seeing as every pro Madden player most certainly has to have him on their roster and the card art is pretty sweet.

      Player-led approach

      By Icege · Posted

      A few different ways this can be taken depending on how you view things: Negative: This coaching staff is so inept that players are having to practically beg them to put them in situations that we as fans have been screaming for. How could David Tepper and Bryce Young do this to us? Positive: The coaches are listening to the players who are trusting the coaches! Neutral: Collaboration can lead to good things, so hopefully this starts the upward trend we've been waiting for.

      Our 2nd Most Productive WR

      I've been trying to tell y'all since preseason that Brycen Tremayne is the missing piece. 😛 XL, TMac, Coker, and Tremayne all dumpstering DBs when the team runs out of 10 personnel will be hilarious.
