2014 Draft Discussion

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

Comparing McBuckets to Morrison is just a lazy comparison.

Doug plays a weird position honestly. A position that the best guys in the NBA play 3 & 4. While Nik would have a better lane to succeed in imo. And honestly if we draft doug we have to trade either Bismack or MKG as Doug will be fighting for minutes at their positions and we would be wasting money with all of them. McRoberts should be a guy we are jumping to bring back.

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

wheres the harm in putting MKG @ the 2, hes not going to contribute much on offense and hes going to be guarding the other teams best wing regardless of if hes @ the 2 or 3.

also mcbob should def be replaced by mcbuckets. unless you want to name them the charlotte mchornets

Hmm I see the Raps are talking trade with Memphis for Tayshaun Prince and the #22 pick. The Grizz would get John Salmons (LOL!) and the 37th pick.

I have no idea how Doug would impact Biz. Doug and MKG are total opposites so I don't know why we'd have to trade him.

McDermott doesn't really play a weird position. He's a scoring small forward.

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

Also Milwaukee doesn't have a chucker named Waiters

They have Knight and Mayo though.

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

Memphis is only ok with trading Prince because Lee and Johnson played so well, and arguably better defensively last season. But that trade is just horrible. If they do that, I'm assuming it's to give ZBo the extra money he was wanting.

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

Oh I agree but Payton is kinda my pet prospect in this class.

Payton was on of my favorite prospects back when he was a late 1st. Now I'm kinda concerned he's being overhyped. I do still like him a lot. But I'd be cautious of getting my expectations too high.

anyone else besides me probably too excited for this draft to happen already?


--chad ford thinks bucks should take exum #2 if wiggins is gone

Spoiler

Chad Ford: Well, obviously Jabari Parker is the safe pick here, and I think he makes some sense. Milwaukee struggles to score, and Jabari would establish himself almost immediately as the alpha dog on this team offensively. I like that fit. However, I don't like that he showed up at the workout at 255 pounds. And at 6-foot-8½, that causes some concern for me about his abilities to guard small forwards.
That said, I'm intrigued by Dante Exum. I could see him being the sort of player you pair with a Giannis Antetokounmpo. He's a great off-the-court citizen; he blew the Bucks away with his speed for his size and his position, and he's versatile. I think he could play the 1 or the 2. Brandon Knight is not a point guard, so this is a need pick for us. In three years, Exum and Giannis could be a Russell Westbrook/Kevin Durant type of duo -- I'm not saying they'll be as good as those players, but that type of dynamic in Milwaukee. So as much as I love Jabari, my vote is for Dante Exum here.

I agree with Ford. The Bucks would never do it, but I really like Exum there.

MKG at best is a role player. Dozens of guys can do what he does. Doug will be a scoring 3 and a stretch 4. Assuming we do the right thing and bring Bob back then he will most likely be our starting 4 or 5.

We have Zeller already. Where does that leave Bismack? A Doug pick at 9 (which is to high for him honestly) will force someone to lose minutes that needs them to develop. Why not trade Biz and the 24 pick and get a chance at someone in the backcourt where we need the shooting.

Henderson isn't giving us any shooting. Neal can go somewhere because he is nothing without the Spurs system. And don't get me started on CDR.

Re: 2014 Draft Discussion

agreed, exum makes more sense than parker @ 2 for the bucks.

giannis has the 3 locked down, and john henson has showed he can be a starting PF. they seriously lack any sort of PG and then exum would allow the bucks to sort out the SG spot with knight/mayo

No I'm completely sold on Al. I just don't want him taking a beating down there. We need him to stay healthy for a good 4 more years. I just like Bob being a 5 that isn't in the paint and Al can abuse these 4's.

1. I don't think Henson is in our future plans.
2. Henson and Larry don't really work together, whereas Jabari and Larry would.

At the end of the day, whether it's Wiggins, Jabari, or Exum, all 3 are great fits in Milwaukee, and Jabari and Exum have apparently made it clear they're hoping to go to Milwaukee.

Prince has gotten horr-awful and they're desperate to dump him.
