Roy Hibbert had some Francisco Elson type games, so Im sure RC is foaming at the mouth for him.
So the NCAA tournament is in full swing and a lot of future NBA players have had the opportunity to showcase their talent. For those who are following, who do you think would be interesting possibilities for the Spurs?

Roy Hibbert sux ay...
Spurs should look at Sam Young from Pitt assuming he enters the draft
Or Tyler Smith from Tennessee
You guys should probably look into drafting a SF, C, or to a lesser extent PG. Roy Hibbert definitely sucks though, he's a stiff. Can't really bring any good bigs in the conversation; don't know any.
Hibbert is a fouling machine. I just hope Brandon Rush is still around for us, but I think his draft stalk will rise as Kansas gets closer to winning the championship.
Hibbert would have been top 10 last year. Too bad. He still could be decent (for someone).
We should look exclusively at SGs and SFs, unless someone like Darren Collison drops. As always the top and middle prospects will be out of the Spurs' range, which likely will be Batum, Buddinger, and I think now Joe Alexander (the best of the three).
Tyler Smith
Courtney Lee
Brandon Rush
Kyle Weaver
are guys to look at
I'm not so sure about
Sam Young
Will Daniels
Chris Douglas-Roberts
do we even have a 1st rounder this year
Yes.
the only thing Roy Hibbert has to offer is the size. He is a senior already and hasn't developed as NBA talent.
Kevin Love.
Kevin Love will be a lottery player, probably. Too high profile, too good, and his team might be a Final Four team. Of course you take him if he drops... D.J. White should be intriguing and might be available.
Certainly. But what I meant was bigs that are in the Spurs' draft range. Unless he slips by a lot (unlikely) Love is a lottery pick for sure.
Looks like there are a lot more PF and C in the top 50 draft prospects than SF. Pity.
Rush in the first and Dragic in the second....I still think the offseason needs are gonna be SF #1 and PG #2...Spurs have plenty of bigs and could probably sign thomas for cheap.
This would be Slovenian Spurs fans' wet dream!
Dragic has enough talent (not to mention athleticism and length) to succed in the NBA.
He shot over 70% this year for 2pt in Adriatic league this years and over 40% from 3pt range.
He has better defensive talent but worse offensive talent than Udrih per say.
But if Udrih was 1st round pick then Dragic sure as can be too... (late first offcourse)
Yes. It does seem heavy with big men prospects. Tons of them.
I'm not getting my hopes up for a first rounder from this country, but who knows...

Are there better prospects at the PG and SF position coming out than either D-Wash or Marcus Williams?
At small forward, I would take Tyler Smith, Bill Walker, or Brandon Rush over Marcus Williams. Dragic is at least comparable to D-Wash...
Kyle Weaver is not a SF or PG, being rather a combo guard, however, I would take having him over either Williams or Washington on the Spurs roster. I would probably do the same with Chris Douglas Roberts (another Combo guard).
I would love to snatch up Brandon Rush. He spent a lot of the start of the season this year rehabbing his injury from last season so teams haven't had as much of a look at him this year. It might signal an opportunity to snatch him up late.
Not a major need for the spurs...td,splitter,mahinmi,bonner,oberto,and possibly thomas re-signing are all the bigs we need.
My squad for next year:
TP-Dragic-JV
Manu-Barry-Finley
Bowen-Udoka-Rush
TD-Thomas-Bonner
Splitter-Oberto-Mahinmi
It will be time to integrate the old with new next year...
I like Tyler Smith from Tenn in the 1st round. Marcus Dove in the 2nd round could be an interesting choice.

We started to talk about the draft in another thread :

I think it is better to keep all the draft talk in a same thread instead of basically saying the same thing in different threads.
