unfortunatly you are right.
next draft will be very deep, but not at PG. right now Law is by far the best PG prospect in the 2007 draft and considering the urgent need of some teams at this spot, he will be picked not later than no. 10 IMO.
if some of the bad teams don't win the top 3 picks in the lottery, I can see them trade down a bit and pick him, (Grizzlies, Bucks) or even pick him with a no.5 pick. (even if he is projected to be a mid first rounder).
the other scenario is, that Atlanta trades for him by using Childress or Smith as trade bait.
the chance that the Spurs get him is below 1%.
Spurs should pick a PG with one of their 2nd rounders.
Shakur should be threre and he could be a nice solution for the back-up PG, especially because of his good defense and size, that would enable him to also defend SGs.
about trading up: mostly teams fail when they try to do so, especially in a deep draft. Spurs might be able to trade up a bit, but not to the area where Law will be on the board.
a possibility might be, that the Bobcats trade their lower first rounder (the Raptors pick), which will be 18-22. Spurs would have to offer likely something like their 1st rounder + rights (Scola or Mahinmi) + a future 1st rounder.
a no 20 pick might land the Spurs Rudy Fernandez . he would be worth the price IMO.
(same goes for Alondo Tucker)
I love the way he's playing, but I'm wary of how successful he'll be on the NBA level. He's big, but not that big. Fast, but not that fast. More of a scorer than a passer. He has had a good college career, but before this season most had him as a second rounder. I know he's a good player, but with the Spurs' more important need at SF (Bruce isn't getting any younger) I would hate to see the Spurs draft for a backup position so early...
you guys check nbadraft.net
his billed as top20 pick
umm this
Law will be every bit as good in the NBA as other 1st team All B12 guards Andre Emmett, Kareem Rush, Hollis Price, (add name of normal run-of-the-mill All B12 G who never caught on with any NBA team).
If his shot is falling, he reminds me of Chris Duhon....though that might be because he kind of looks like him....
Because Durant and Law are on the same level...right?
I think it's the other way around.
Durant will be a force. Law might be a force.
Just by the beginning part of that description, sounds a little like Michael Redd.
(Note: I didn't watch the game, just saw the Sportscenter highlights)
That's setting the bar pretty high....
RC was at the game. He is an Aggie, he wants Acie, but whether he can pull off a move is questionable.
Acie is the most clutch player in college the last 10 years, no doubt about it. The last year, I have seen him personally make 7 game winning or tying baskets in last 24 secs and OT. His FT shooting in last 4 min and in OT is 12% higher(90%) than his average. He has the highest scoring average in the country in the last 5 mins of games.....if Tony Parker had his heart and cold blooded demeanor, the Spurs would be looking for their 3rd straight NBA le this year, no doubt about it.
this statement is so full of i don't know where to start.
????
How so????
If Tony had score 1 ing point in the 4th Q of game 7 against Dallas, the Spurs would have won the NBA championship against Miami....1 ing point!!!!
Had he had Acie's balls, he would have made at least 1 ing basket....
moron
call me when acie law carries an NBA le contender for large parts of a season - like Tony did last season. acie law is a great NCAA player, but that in no way makes him a lock as an NBA player, and nowhere near Parker's level.????
How so????
If Tony had score 1 ing point in the 4th Q of game 7 against Dallas, the Spurs would have won the NBA championship against Miami....1 ing point!!!!
Had he had Acie's balls, he would have made at least 1 ing basket....
moron
Did I say if the Spurs had Acie INSTEAD of TP???
I said if TP had Acies killer instinct and heart, we would have won.
Clear?
I have a feeling Acie Law is going to play himself into the Lottery this month.
it's clear you're a Law homer, and not thinking straight. but yeah, basically you said parker had no heart, which is stupid. didn't he play banged up that entire series? how heartless of him.
I am so happy. Finally an Aggie hoopster is being talked about. Law is awesome. Dude is clutch. Last night's game put the stamp on him being clutch. He was clutch before last night. The game against Kansas was another clutch performance.
dude does make some big shots. it will be interesting to see how he does in the nba.
Acie Law the Fourth aka....
Not a homer, I have season tickets, I have seen every game the last 1 1/2 years, I have seen him do what he did last night over and over and over.
I did NOT say TP had no heart....I said if he had Acie's heart...big difference.
TP let Devin Harris shut him down in 4th Q and OT and that is not clutch, that is embarrassing
Gillespie better stay an Aggie forever. LOL. Anyone know how long his contract is? I no he didn't recruit Law. However, Gillespie has been the big difference in Aggie Land.
Parker was playing on 1/2 a leg. Couple of games they didn't even know if he'd be able to go.
the way ginobili and tim were playing, TP should take a back seat in the 4th and get them the ball. sticking that loss on TP is glossing over a lot of the spurs' problems in that series. if ginobili hadn't fouled dirk, the spurs would probably have won. if duncan had owned diop like he did all series in overtime, they probably win. ifs and buts.
Are you a woman?
You just will not let up.
This is an Acie thread...I made a statemet that I think makes a point about how clutch Acie is...not how crappy Tony is. If TP had taken the game over like Acie has at least 9 times in last 5 mins of games the last year, the Spurs would have won...that is all I am saying.
Please leave it alone.
One question....Have you watched a single game this season?
I notice you continually refer to Parker's performance last year and in previous post-seasons, but have you bothered to watch some of the games this year where Tony has absolutely taken over in the Fourth quarter. At times, he's the only on the floor making shots. Give me a break and stop this "Acie is the most clutch basketball player ever" talk...
