I am curious as to some of the players my fellow Spurs fans are looking at for the draft.
We have 3 second round picks this year. I am not sure we will keep all of the players or any of the players. Let's assume we keep all of the players....
GS (approx. 37) -
Port (approx. 52) -
Hou (approx. 54) -

ive been reading up on him for a few months....i am intrigued.
what about these guys
SF - Lee mard - BYU
PF/C - Jeff Pendergraph - ASU
PF - Ahmad Nivins - St. Joseph's
That's as many American collegiates as we've drafted in the past decade. Not terribly realistic.
I know........hehehehe
I guess Pop doesn't like American ballers.
btw, we dont have to draft all of them.....im saying we need help at SF and the Bigs.
Where/When did we come up with picks from GS and Port? NBADraft.net only currently shows the Hou second round pick.
Well we got Gist, Hill and Hairston which suprised me last year haha.
other draft sites have us with 3 picks.
Danny green
Wayne Ellington. PERIOD. oh and T-hans would be alright...
Spurs need a backup PG after Popovich will not use Hill anymore right? If they still are not sure of Hill then they should consider Milos Teodosic. I am not sure he will guard PG in NBA. he should guard SG.
But this would be one to consider for sure.
Does this matter at all, considering the coach will basically ask whoever we draft to go/stay overseas?. I mean, look at the confidence he has on our FIRST ROUND pick.
The Lakers should take BlakeGriffin if he is still tyere when they pick.
I say the Spurs should go SF with their first pick, maybe a Damion James from Texas.
I know he still needs development at the SF position, but he isn't TOO far off right now. He definitely has the skill set. He will probably drop to the 2nd round after many were picking him as a mid to late first round prospect. He is s super sleeper and he is a great rebounder. His outside shot needs some work but besides that he would be a good pick.
Do they say where they came from? What teams? We have Houston's from the Scola trade, and IIRC, we have Phoenix's this year from the Hairston trade. I don't know anything about a pick from GS or Portland, unless maybe those picks were conveyed from Houston and Phoenix.
As re ed and worthless as you are, i actually like Milos and i've wondered why he isn't in the NBA. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with his contract, and if i'm not mistaken, i recall him mentioning that he doesnt want to come to the NBA.
If the spurs drafted Damion James I would have to shoot myself.
busted game?
He's built like a 4 but the overall size of a 3, and not in a good way. He's not lanky so he won't be a 3 stopper. He has no dribbling skills whatsoever, falls in love with his jumper which at this point is still lacking.
But he is athletic and can get rebounds. In college. I just don't see him translating into the nba at all.
Sergio Llull.....no place for him right now, but in two or three years, he will either be ready AND the Spurs will need someone with his abilities. if he's there at #37, he's IMO the pick with the most upside long term.
Vladimir Dasic.....fills the most needs in the current situation. a combo forward with great size and athleticism for a Euro guy. best case could be a Vlad Radmanovic with defense. worst case is a role player and decent defender for his position. (Najera for example)
Jeff Pendergraph...he would also fill a need, considering the age of KT and Fab and the fact that Matt's contract expires 2010. looks like the perfect role player big, who Pop loves. good guy, smart, works hard, knows his limitations.
there might be a small chance the Spurs get one of this guys with the #37 pick. little to no chance any of them drops to the 50s. I see the Spurs trade away both of their later 2nd rounders. this class isn't very deep anyhow. maybe the Spurs try to package all 3 2nd rounders to move up to the top of the 2nd round. (I don't think they would want a late 1st rounder. for a possible international pick this is minor to a high 2nd rounder).
maybe the Kings are willing to talk about their likely #31 pick in exchange for our 3 2nd rounders. they might se more sense in stockpiling picks, considering their rebuilding situation. the #31 pick will at least guarantee a decent international prospect. (like the mentioned Llull and Dasic. Casspi is another possibility there, aside the fact that I don't like him.)
Hmm I am not sure. Maybe you are right. But I do know that there is very much potential there.
NBADraft.net disagrees with you, but they have him projected at #22, long before we pick.
did u read my initial post....it tells u what teams give us picks and the approximate position.
He will get drafted for sure, but I'm just saying we better not ing get him. I watched him play his entire college career, and he ing sucks. In fact, I hope he does get drafted, so I don't have to see him my team over next season.
He can't dribble and isn't big enough for a 4...what does that tell you?
