I'm fully willing to admit that ya'll might be right, and Hansbrough could end up being the obvious choice at #30. If Danny picks him, i'll talk myself into him 100%. And i'm not one of those insanely stubborn people that can't change their mind or admit error.
It's just that at this point I'm not sold on the Hansbrough type as that valuable to draft. It seems to me like most of the excitement about undersized fours that were successful having success in the pros is based on several years of undersized fours having little or no success in the NBA; now they are regularly successful, the secret is out, and there are a ton of them. in the minute of this post, i can think of Gomes, haslem, Powe, Davis, Bass, Diogu, David West, Craig Smith, Milsap, turiaf, jeff green if you count him, and maxiell that just pop into my mind as successful undersized fours. basically, i'm just not super surprised or impressed any more when an undersized 4 who was very good in college exceeds "expectations" and becomes a little bit above average NBA forward. There's tons of them out there, Danny finds them in the second round, why spend a first rounder on one, especially when we may be about to sign a rapidly improving Powe to a nice,cheap extension and already have Davis as well? If we do draft Hansbrough, i'd prefer to trade him to a more enamored team for a greater need, that i could see.
