TJ Warren will go in lottery NOW

[Mr October]

TJ has 28 and 8 leading the renewed Cardiac Pack to the "upset" of Syracuse!!!  I told everyone that Syracuse was a paper tiger when they where undefeated.

TJ will NOT fall to #17!!!

Go Pack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There are a stack of interesting wing players in the middle of the first round. I like Warren at 18. Would you trade up to get him?

NC state is fun to watch. It would be fun to see them get into the tourny.

I'd be happy getting Hood or Warren with our pick from Brooklyn.  Could be a cheap replacement for Green if he gets traded.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Paige get the best out of that duel?  Where is Paige projected to go in the draft, round 2?

Correct me if I am wrong, but UNC is one and done in the ACC tournament and NC State is 2-0 and in the semi-finals, right:-))))))))))))))))

Warren is spectacular going coast to coast off the dribble.  He builds up a lot of speed and can maneuver around defenders.  Superficially, he doesn't look like a good athlete but he really is.  You can't play like he does in the open court and not be a good athlete.  The 15 pounds he's lost since last season has made him quicker and faster.  Even so, he's still a big bodied small forward.  The shape of his body is similar to Pierce's--wide shoulders, an absence of NBA-type muscle tone--but his arms aren't nearly as long although he may be an inch taller.

The only modern wing I can think of with a similar shot repertoire and volume from 3-8 feet is Chris Douglas-Roberts but Warren is taller, much stronger and a better athlete.  It's silly to compare him to a hall of famer but he has some shades of pre-ACL Bernard  King to his game.
