Im reading over some of the later comments and thinking… where do you guys live? If youre on the westcoast, how do you not know TRoss? And im hearing eastcoast names like Waiters and guys who’ve fallen out of the lottery on every board like TJones.
Please… dont be a bighead know-it-all here.

Im not bias either, heres MKD’s CityHoopsYouTube link

watch, TRoss has moves upon moves already in the database jumpshot very ripe … and looking at MKD, Youre just shooting marginal, unchallenged shots, and dunking (his specialty i guess).
this is a no brainer.
Would I draft Trevor Ariza #7 overall? No.
Would I draft Eddie Jones #7 overall? Fo-Sho

The Bulls and 76ers wanna deal with us bc dont nobody else want them dudes…NOBODY! theyve both been on the trading block for a year and a half. This is the best deal ive heard for them …
Now if RudyGay came up, THATS a WHOLE different conversation. Although the money hes owed is ridiculous, he’d out match either Deng or Iggy. But at times, hes been labeled a floater as well which is why hes on the block
(x’s the money hes set make)we may as well keep the pick and go young, from the ground up like OKC. Theyve shown, its possible.

Getting Roy wouldnt be so bad if you can get him at a reasonable price. He has something to prove so he might not be that high of a price. I think maybe a 6th man element would be something we havent had since ’07. Drafting Ross and signing him would solidify that but BIGS, we cannot forget, thats our real weakness. idk.

OMG… and that MKD kid shoots the ball like imagine BillCartwright’s freethrow shot but jumping with it… eeeewwww. overrated.
I just donnot understand the emphasis put on selecting guys who running and dunking happen to be their best attribute.

Listen… if drummond falls, you take him bc he fits into what the warriors NEED & do best, RUN! Best of all, you can move forward from Beidrens; and if hes gone, the warriors better not pass up TerrenceRoss. You would be set at the 2&3 positions for 10years at least. Both have killer jumpshots, and can switch everything defensively. I couldnt imagine it being easier for MarkJackson.

The idea of trading this 7pick is ridiculous to me.

Deng: We already have Jefferson who does everything Deng does. Deng is just younger w/more injuries. chicago getting the 7pick for him is a come up for them. He wont lead us to jack and he’ll take shots from Klay.
Iguodala:???? For the 7pick? Another come up for the other team. All he does is run and dunk. His jumper is inconsistant at best, defense is mediocre and hes a floater on the court, disappearing in loong stretches.
Stick w/Curry, Lee, Wright, Klay, & Bogut … select Ross w/7pick … a big w/the 2nd pick. Do everything else thru freeagency if possible but dont give up the 7th

BTW, if it meant the W’s giving up their draft for Iggy or Deng … i’d do it in a heartbeat. i think it’s important for Lacob and Guber to win the hearts back of all the fans that fill up that arena every game(through the tanking this last season) …

the injection of Deng or Iggy forming a very nice trio with Bogut and Lee would be lethal!

Roadster,

i think the Bulls will want more than that if they must give up a player like Deng. the dubs would be forced to give up their entire draft for him or Iggy to happen.

and in order for those options to even arise, what really needs to happen for the W’s is a combination of two top talents like Barnes and Drummond to both be available at #7 .. which is unfortunately very, very unlikely to happen.

about Roy,

he could turn things around if he can stay healthy. the thought of him, Curry, and Bogut being in expensive suits sitting on the bench for a large chunk of the year is frightening though, so it could be best to stay away from that train wreck and get a durable star up in the Bay!

Bullsfan,

i agree with you about the W’s horrible situation they’re in. they don’t have buying power like other teams do at this pointm. unless of course a top prospect falls to them at #7 … and like you said, are willing to give up the rest of their draft, then MAYBE Iggy could happen… even the Deng trade could happen is someone the Bulls love like Barnes falls to them … that’s the ideal situation that is doubtful to even happen.

anyone hear about the dubs interest in Brandon Roy? oh man if that man could stay healthy, that is a steal of a signing..

although realistically, i doubt he even passes the physical! LOL
