Suck 4 Drummond

I like Barnes, and I want Barnes. I know he's a good player, but idk how good, as he's not even the first option on that UNC team. They have so many players who do so many things but like in the game vs Duke, you feed him, he does major work.

Will he be a star ? Who knows...stranger things have happened (LINSANITY anyone ?). He apparently has the work ethic to be very good. I know as of know he's better than any 3 on our roster, or that we can possibly obtain.

And while I like Davis, drafting him would be like giving up on Smack.

If Drummond is not the next Dwight Howard, then he's not worth it. They should go with Harrison Barnes, who's the most likely to become the next "6'8" wing star (ala Kobe & LeBron).

Barnes is a lot closer to being a Wesley Johnson or Adam Morrison than a Kobe or Lebron.

Drummond is talented but plays very passive most of the time. I don't see much Dwight Howard in him- Dwight is a true post player while Drummond shies away from contact and doesn't look comfortable banging around in the post. I think a more realistic comparison would be Deandre Jordan. Given the other prospects available I wouldn't be upset with drafting him.

    • I didn't say I thought throwing it was a bad decision, I said I thought not running those 3-5 yard routes to pick up the 1st down wasn't a great call.  Yes the play worked out, but I didn't love the play call, it's like when a bad shooter is taking a 3 and you're yelling "no no no" as they're going up and then they make it so it worked out. That's still gambling on them to make the play and I take no issue with that. But I just went and watched the play again, we had T-Mac and XL running downfield crossing routes, Coker went in motion behind the LOS and then moved up a yard or two after the snap but not even past the LOS, Sanders chipped the DE and then ran a drag route right long the LOS. The play worked out, but I don't really like that particular play call and route tree with the game on the line on a 4th and 2.  If you want to send one route downfield as an option that's fine, but there were only 2 realistic target options with that route tree and they were both 15-20 yards downfield.
    • If BY comes back, they 100% need to bring in legit competition.    Heres what as you are alluding too. This team can either sign Icky&Mays or BY, I do not see both without cuts/trades/etc. My vote is for Icky&Mays, draft a QB....  
    • JB shouldn’t even be a thought IMO.  Bonus if he ever matters for us.
