Im on the Alec Burks to the Minnesota Timberwolves bandwagon. unless we get the top pick then i want Irving and we can then trade the rights to Rubio

Just doing some reading on Bismack Biyombo. 6'9" kid from Congo who is rising up draft boards -- Draft Express has him up to #8.
Some highlights from the Nike Hoop Summit here.
Lots of overseas guys looking good for the Top 10 now.

As long as the rumors aren't true about him being over 21, he could be a high draft pick. I guess people don't want to develop an older guy, even with his potential.
He has something like a 7' 7" wingspan. That's just nuts for a guy who is 6' 9".
I see him as a guy who should go mid-late first, but given his potential and the amount of guys staying in school, he could end up being a lottery pick. Whoever picks him has to have a lot of patience, because he'll need 2-3 years to be an impact player

if the Twolves get the first pick, we got to draft Kyrie Irving. Then trade the Rights to Rubio and also trade Jonny Flynn(if you can)
If we dont get the first pick i want Alec Burks then get rid of Martell Webster and his slow ass. Convince Rubio to get his ass over here
Either scenario make a play for Oden or Deandre Jordan in FA
First Scenario
Irving/Ridnour
Johnson/Webster
Beasley
Love/Randolph
Oden or Jordan/Darko
Second Scenario
Rubio/Ridnour
Johnson/Burks
Beasley
Love/Randolph
Oden or Jordan/Darko

You have to hope for a top 2 pick for Williams or Irving. After that there is a big drop

Looks like Texas's Tristan Thompson is declaring for the draft. A likely lottery pick ... http://t.co/AvkJ2HD
