2013 CB Draft : Draft Thread : VOTING ENDS 8:00PM EST TONIGHT

[Who]

Going ahead, team has some choices to make, the Lakers need a player who can get at the rim and get to the line, they also need either a mobile back-up power forward or a quick, defensive-minded point guard.

I wouldn't worry about the FT thing. This Lakers team is going to be elite in terms of low turnovers, FG% and overall scoring efficiency. No need to upset the current offensive flow trying to force someone in there who can get to the line.

Jose Calderon is not good enough to qualify into a big 3.

You know what I meant...

Considering the nature of the draft, it'd be really hard to form a legitimate big 3. Just imagine if we could have Batum at SG and Gallo at SF.

Golden State doesn't have the talent at the top that San Antonio does.

Funny. Lets let the rosters round themselves out big guy.

[rondoallaturca]

Boston Celtics
Irving | Gordon | Gasol | Kanter | Splitter

It all started with the Kyrie/Pau combo, which is a nasty offensive combo. Splitter is a competent starting caliber center, although I feel he's still a step behind in the NBA game. The big questions marks are easy: Gordon and Kanter. With Gordon, you have a guy who has missed nearly as many games percentage-wise as Bynum. The big difference is that Bynum has demonstrated he can be a game-changer, while Gordon has only shown the potential to. With Kanter, you have a super promising young center, and someone that I'm very sold on, but I'm not so sure if others feel as confidently about the big Turk. Since Splitter is around, I'd imagine Kanter will be getting shopped, but again, his lack of a track record may make it tough getting fair value for a guy who was arguably overdrafted all the way up in the 3rd round. Realistically, you guys might have to consider shopping Splitter - or, in a worst case scenario, make your 3rd round pick a 20 minute bench player.

Having only gone through 4 rounds, it's obvious that no team is near being a finished product, but this team figures to be especially behind in the pack. The Kyrie/Gordon/Pau core has limitless potential on the offensive end, but defense, along with Gordon's health, are glaring flaws. It'll be a challenge navigating the center dilemma, too. Considering the guys at the helm, I'm quite interested in seeing how this all unfolds.

Denver is going to join this big man Free for All. We got a very good faction here. Now the only thing we need is an entrance theme, and a manager.

I dont think any of our bigs can cut a promo on their own.

So here are my really, really early, and completely subject to change, favorites.

East- Atlanta, Boston, Cleveland, Chicago

West- Golden State, Houston, Minnesota, Phoenix

Thanks for the respect.

I have to say, I love your team. Conley's always been a personal favorite of mine; I want to get his jersey. Nobody can deny George is a special player. Ryno is a nice piece. And you stole Redick from me .

Find yourself a sturdy defensive center and you're right up there with these other favorites in my book.

Still looking to pick up an additional (top 12) 5th. Offering 6.19 and 7.7 for a 5th and 9th.

Didn't IP already cut your legs out, only to have both of you guys get undercut by my offer of my 5.12 (and other picks) for an early 5th?
 
Cuz yeah, that offer still stands

Well, Lakers have 2 seventh rounders and 5.14 up for grabs. C'mon folks, we're the Lakers! We've NEVER ripped anyone off!
