Whoever we take at #52 will spend most of next season on the Red Claws, so it doesn't matter.

I'd like Jon Scheyer if he's still available, though.  If not, Omar Samhan would be a nice low-risk decent-reward pick.

I'm probably the only person who likes Harangody in the NBA, or the only one who will admit it anyway.  He's bigger than the 6-7 he's listed at, actually more like 6-8, with a huge wingspan, very smart and effective, extremely strong, great work ethic and leadership, and he just finds a way to get the job done and put the ball in the hoop.  He's sort of like a bumblebee, it's not supposed to be able to fly based on what it looks like, but somehow it does.  He was one of the best forwards in the Big East and by far the best player on his team.  I predict in 5 years he'll be in somebody's rotation, most likely one of only 7 or 8 second-rounders still in the league.  I just think he will find a way to make it.  I would love to see the Cs grab him at 52 if he's still there.

I like Harangody.  But he is a rookie FA in my eyes.  I think he will find a way to make it into the league, but I have a feeling it will take a few more years, and I think there are more intriguing guys at 52.

Darington Hobson.  Can't fault him because he went to New Mexico (home of JR Giddens), because Granger went there too.

7' 0 can block, pass, runs the floor well. Maybe not NBA ready just yet but can be a nice project.

I like him, from the highlights he kinda reminds me of a slightly more athletic Chris Kaman. I could see him blossoming into a nice player. I wouldn't oppose the Celts checking him out at all.
