Title: With the 17th pick Post by: NetsGM on March 26, 2005, 01:09:33 AM The Trailblazers select:
Juan Cunningham, C, BC This was the first computer pick of the draft. Title: With the 17th pick Post by: RaptorsGM on March 26, 2005, 08:25:20 AM WHAT!?
The computer SUCKS at drafting, and IMO this was a steal for the Blazers. Cunningham has the ability to put up 15 and 10. Title: With the 17th pick Post by: CavsGM on March 26, 2005, 10:23:48 AM I guess the computer doesn't suck so much. Nice pick, comp.
Title: With the 17th pick Post by: SpursGM-old on March 26, 2005, 11:22:36 AM Maybe I should let the computer pick 21-25 for me. :roll:
Title: With the 17th pick Post by: CavsGM on March 26, 2005, 11:30:10 AM Maybe you should.
Title: With the 17th pick Post by: NetsGM on March 26, 2005, 11:36:30 AM 9 times out of 10 the computer will make a terrible pick.
Title: With the 17th pick Post by: RaptorsGM on March 26, 2005, 10:42:40 PM THis was the other 1/10.
He could have been Lotto. He would have been better than that PF picked 7th. Title: With the 17th pick Post by: NetsGM on March 27, 2005, 12:20:24 AM No way. With that defense he's not near as good as hobson.
disagree 100% Title: With the 17th pick Post by: RaptorsGM on March 27, 2005, 08:57:18 AM Hobson- B C C- B C+ C
Cunny- B C- D+ C B- B yeah, you're right, Cunny has the potential to get to B- or so defense, and since the Spurs are not trying to win now, Cunny wouldnt have been a bad pick. Title: With the 17th pick Post by: NetsGM on March 27, 2005, 11:05:53 AM Hobson has better outside socring (a C outside for a pf might be 3 pt range), better ballhandling and better defense. he only has a +1 increase in rebounding. I don't think the difference in B and C potential is enough to make up for that.
Despite what I said about the Spurs taking Hobson a little early, I do think he's a good prospect, the best pf in the draft. He has a unique skillset of being able to score both inside and out, handle the ball, and be adequate defensively and on the boards. Boozer was a B+ C- offensively and put up 22 ppg. I'm wondering what a B (-1) C (+1) will do. I'm not expecting 20 ppg, but I think he could average 15-18 ppg year in and year out. Title: With the 17th pick Post by: CavsGM on March 27, 2005, 12:19:16 PM If JC can improve his ratings up to maybe a B-, he'll be a very good starter. Not as good as Hobson, though.
