TREMENDOUS talent
4 year starter
Built like a rock
In the same category scoring-range wise as Shane Larkin
Watch his Murray St and predraft highlights
Totally reminds me of Chris Paul with his body build, ball savvy, finishes with power at the rim, step back 3
Scoring first point to run Pringles offense

Won't be there when we pick, have to trade up to get him

2nd round complete steals for us would be

Canaan or James Ennis

Could see either getting into Rd one..

Would take a miracle for either to be there when we pick

Probably means packaging a future 2nd rd pick + current pick to move up 10 slots to get one of these

Well worth it, will be contributors for the '13 season

BTW he is more of a Damian Lilliard than CP3 from the little I see. I am not saying he has star potential like Lilliard but in terms of play style...

Knicks might bite as they need another PG after the Kidd retirement. Might have to give a 2nd rounder as well.....but worth it.

DraftExpress currently doesn't even project him to be drafted at all. So maybe there's no need to do anything to get hi other than make a call after the draft has ended, and invite him to summer league.

But they want to get rid of it to a team that will absorb Marion's final year for no incoming salary.

He's been too polished a long time, even if he plays like a SG, he does have PG skill.

Heavy minutes. Tenured. NBA ready.
