Good thing there draft board is changing like crazy week to week, even day to day. Dont like that pick for some reason. I hope Steven Adams falls to us if we dont trade it.

If he falls to #16, you almost have to take a guy based on upside.

I just hope he's picked before then. Not really a fan.

Could not agree more. Would prefer that a big was the one that slipped, but that's probably unlikely.

AGree , not feeling the shazzy dude at all, he doesn't seem right for the C's  ...can see that name going down in history as one of the worst picks ever to flop.

no shazzzy bttute

Im all for it. Even if we have to move up to get him. If he is available in the 11-15 range I say Danny should make a deal.

I said this once and will say it again.

I'd even move up to make sure that this guy plays for Boston.

All Star talent with great competitiveness (potentially of course) doesnt come that often. His flaws can be fixed, with the coaching we have.

I'd be ok with it. Seems like he is a good scorer, and has the right body for the NBA. Only thing is he likes to go to his strong hand (Left) A lot.. I mean A LOT. So he needs to work on that, but he is still a baby and will get better at that.

I find the NBADraft.net board completely unreliable. DraftExpress mocks tend to reflect the real results better.

Agreed. Right now nbadraft.net has Rice at 34, Withey at 35 and Tony Snell at 19. Those picks seem odd.

Plus the draftexpress guy, Givony, actually attends all the camps etc. and appears to have access to "sources," whatever that means.

And an actual clue about basketball. NBADraft depends on some sort of "scout" reports of dubious quality.

Shabazz is my pick for rookie for the year in 2013-2014 season. This is a weak draft also take that into consideration.  ;D

This is a rare talent. If he falls, snatch him. Do not draft a weak 7 footer, just use the strategy of drafting the best player available at that point.
When you lose, the easy part is to see who gives up. Giving up is very simple. You basically take your stuff and walk away. To continue to work and to continue to compete is one of the most difficult things, especially when you really don't have anything - KG
