    no need for a big that early..get Beal or MKG with the 3rd pick..hopefully after a decade after that..I could go "With the 3rd pick, I made the earth sick,MJ, him J fadeaway perfect"


    You lost me when you mentioned that bum's name.

      I think he was just naming all the bigs the Wizards have, not the good ones.

      He's right though, the Wizards need talent at the wings, they've got Nene in the middle and they've got young guys they can develop that play down low but they aren't going anywhere with Jordan Crawford as their long term solution in the backcourt with Wall.

        Blatche ain't big man.

        He's nothing more than 6'11 Guard wannabe who's allergic to posting up or going in the paint.

        MKG makes more sense for them than drafting Beal.

          As a Celtics fan I hope they draft Dion Waiters and Kevin Jones with our first round picks. With our 2nd round im hoping Kris Joseph. I honestly believe Kevin Jones is under looked. Speaking of under looked, am I the only one who think Thomas Robinson is better then Anthony Davis but hype is on Davis

            I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess you're either a Syracuse fan or Big East fan? I don't like Waiters. He played awful for the majority of the season but was hyped up because he started the season hot for a few games and finished with a few great games. He's undersized, isn't a willing passer, has horrible mechanics, and gets caught out of position on defense a lot. Unfortunately, I think he'll shine at the combine because he's athletic and plays with heart, but I think he's going to be a bust, and I'm a student at Syracuse and a huge fan of their teams.

            Jones is undersized and doesn't offer much in the post.

            I like Joseph as a 2nd rounder though. Very well-rounded.

                Regardless of whether or not Blatche is a big, they still have Nene, Booker, Seraphin, Singleton and Vesely. They don't need another young big.

                  The NBA Draft isn't about need at all.

                  If you think a great player is there, you take him regardless.

                  Besides that, Washington big men are nothing to write home about to begin with

                    Agreed. If the 76ers drafted on need, they would have taken Al Thornton over Thaddeus Young.

                      Man with Wall's length and athleticism if he committed himself on D and they put MKG next to him that could be a straight nasty backcourt defensively.

                      I see MKG as an Iguodala clone in the pro's, do you guy think that comparison fits? Hard worker, lock down defender, VERY athletic and will come in with a poor shot from deep but will hopefully improve to a point where it can at least be dangerous occasionally like Iggy as well.

                        I think MKG's jump shot will eventually be better than Iggy's.

                          Literally every single mock compares him to Iggy and Crash.

                            Very good comparison as well... Watched him for a long time, and kid is a great talent. He is a hard nosed defender, good slasher, hard worker... great addition to any team.

                            And seriously, Robinson better than Davis?

                            You have a big man who is a defensive threat, with guard skills, you take him. Davis is the #1 pick, no doubt.

                              Iggy never had a delay/hitch in his jumper. Even at Arizon

                              But good size and skill player comparison.

                                And every team would pack it in vs them. Give me Beal. He might be undersized but he's SO much farther along when it comes to an offensive identity. With a creator/penetrater like Wall you need someone who can knock down shots whether it be off transition or in the half-court which is where we are at our poorest. Even MKG's 1-on-1 game is lacking right now. I do love his motor though.
