Nick, did you deal away 4(16)?
No.
Are you sitting on it, waiting to see if it hatches?
Impatient aren't we.....
No been AFK for a while....
With the 16th pick in the 4th round the Portland Trailblazers select: Ersan Ilyasova
I'm not a huge fan of him... Somehow, he didn't turn into the second coming of Karl Malone like we were all promised over the summer. Still, he's a rotation worthy big man, so that's not so bad at this stage.
I like his versatility and youth and potential.
Versatility, sure. Youth and potential, it depends. There were some reports that he's actually a couple of years older than the 23 he's listed at, which mutes that potential a bit. Also, I'd be worried that he's regressed a bit this season, and is very up and down.
Like I said, he's a serviceable big man, so it's not a bad pick. I just don't think he's anything special.
