I love it. This draft is stacked. LOAD UP

We wont be loading up with rookies... Id say we'll make it outta the first round with 2 players picked. It just depends where they are picked.

who the hell is dis? lol i done seen so many random names ova da past few weeks

Umm. he is a 6'5" SG from Oregon State he is definitely not a random name he is a consensus top 30 player in this years draft and someone who really impressed at the combine and is moving up draft boards. Not sure how you havent heard of him yet.

i havent cuz Oregon State was irrelevant nd couldnt even make the NCAA tournement lol i mean dude didnt stand out that much for me to notice him i kno i said in another thread i want us to use one of our picks for a wing but dis guy is unknown nd would be a waste to trade up for. Maybe i need to watch some film of dude or sumthin but half these guys we interested in didnt have a huge impact in college

Yea I am with you on that, I didn't know a whole lot about him until after the season. I definitely do think DA will take him at #21/#22 because he is already on record as saying he will pick BPA and has done a good job sticking to that in the past.

But, potentially buying a late round 1 pick or early second round pick for this guy I think would be a good move. We need some wing players who can come off the bench, get their own shot and score. Cunningham can fit that role IMO

I remember watching him choke hard in that Pac 10 Championship game or semi finals vs Washington....good news for him was that Tony Wroten Jr is an even bigger choke....I think he missed 6 straight free throws in the last 30 seconds.

I do like Cunningham's talent and he had a good game up to that point, just saying =D

if danny can get a late first round/early second for this kid I wouldnt mind packaging 21 and 22 and moving into the 15-17 range to ensure a guy like Perry Jones III or Terrence Ross (potentially)

[syfy9]

Dream come true for me being a die hard Beaver. Jared "Flight" Cunningham can really score. He's a great athlete and could be a Shannon Brown in the league. Good compliment to Rondo.

he will fit right in. This team have choked in big games plenty.

Danny said we might make (but we are preparing to keep both picks) a trade so who or what we are trading, I dunno, but we will likely be moving up in the draft...

if we trade up to 15, we should try to snatch Arnett Moultrie (if the suns don't take him), then hopefully with whatever pick we have left, choose Royce White/Terrace Jones whoever is left.

Not a fan of Cunnigham

Royce White has as much potential as anyone in this draft. Are 20-25 teams really going to pass on a guy this gifted AND developed??

As far as Cunningham man I saw him and really didn't think much. But its ironic that in a year where the pac 12 supposedly was so awful there is going to be 3 first rounders. And the team that won the regular season had 2 of them and wasn't invited to the NCAA. What a joke.

Can we afford to spend time with 4 rookies and 2 sophmores on a championship contending team? Who is Doc going to play without any veterans?!?

Danny will say anything at this point you have to be a fool to believe anything regarding the draft coming from him to the media

Yeah, I too wonder how the roster can accommodate so many players with so little experience in the league.

If Ainge wants to use Moore to move up from #51 to the early 2nd, I guess I'd be OK with him selecting Cunningham. He sounds a lot like Bradley, though.

I could see one of the sophomores being used as part of a trade.




If there are three 1st round picks, I could see the 2nd round pick be an oversea stash or traded away.
