I dunno that this thread needed to be made yet, but I figured it might be relevant since the top prospects are playing right now. Specifically I wanted to begin the discussion with Derrek Williams. Anyone see him dominate tonight? He looks like he should be the top pick in the draft. He hit the three, he showed great athleticism, he has an outstanding wingspan and length. thoughts?

Chris Singleton when asked what he's going to do to celebrate: "Celebrate? I'm just going to mark off the teams that passed me up."

"mortreport: Knicks will regret not taking Marshon Brooks instead of Shumpert. Brooks has star potential! Shumpert solid combo but lacks Brooks upside."

Well ya, no one's said that he's gonna be a great player here, aside from him trying to exaggerate what others are saying.

He should have a nice, long career as a quality role player.

There you have it, I'm greedy, I want Studs not role players, I thought we made this mistake when we picked Udoh.

Dude, you guys were picking 11th. What "stud" were you expecting to get?

Yeah we all want Dwight Howard and Lebron James, but you can only pick the players that are available.

Nikola Mirotic is a great long term pick.

IMO, we're past the point of the draft where you care about need AT ALL. Gotta take BPA from here on out.

Biyombo for one and was hoping for a trade, Biyombo's got his strengths and weakness but with room to grow with his physical tools. sorry man didn't mean to give you crap..............but the Warriors just kill me man!

#23 went to your Bulls, and you picked Nikola Mirotic. Won't be in the NBA for a few years though, but a very good pick, IMO.

lol I just got in to watch the draft, and I was gonna say that Chris Singleton was gonna be the steal of the draft. I guess all you guys here know about him, since that is all that you guys have been talking about...Washington got a steal here.

There wasnt a guy left at #11 that was a stud. I'm not sure there was a stud past #2 in this draft. Singleton is a premier defender and not much more. That has value however.
