I choked harder than LeBron

FU John Wall

Damn, the white player killed me. Thought more people would just assume Steve Nash was American or something.

I waffled on fastest player before settling with Wall, can't remember who my other choice was though. Hmm I think it was Parker.

As usual, 2p2 has no clue about the NBA. I tried to take that into account as best I could but that people think Jetto is the worst poster really makes me never want to interact with you people again.

I want to change my answer to Kris Humphries.

How could Jetto be the worst poster? He's one of the most PASSIONATE fans on here.

It's because he makes college fans angry by discrediting college bball

Jetto is many things to many ppl.

just checked draftexpress and it agrees.

wat. he is 3rd on draftexpress and is 2 on various others

edit: i agree that he will prob not go first b/c drummond is a center prospect. he is more likely to pass davis than be passed by sullinger. hard to see anyone else behind passing him. maybe if rivers balls out of control or something


i would not be surprised to sullinger fall in this draft, even after he has a good year

it's sheep tho, the right answer isn't the best answer

and drummond has a higher pick ceiling but a lower pick floor

barnes has already established himself as a top 5 pick while drummond HAS TO prove himself worthy in order to go ahead of him

People here don't think Jetto is the worst poster.

People think that other people think that.

Two beefs:

Barnes, really? I didn't know so I just googled 5 different sites, and 4/5 had drummond going first. none had barnes IIRC. I am disappoint SE.

I knew it would be some NBA poster, but The B is pretty awful.

Moar confirmation that Bitchface = Jetto. No one actually thinks that, but they think it will be a common answer.

agree that drummond is more likely to go #1, but if he had come up #1 in this it would suggest people cheated imo

i mean, you're allowed to google in sheep. I just assume for most questions if I don't know the answer that google will be right, and that other people will google as well.

that, and barnes isn't the #1 pick at all.

i thought researching answers was frowned upon

that and you sound mad

Researching is lame. Barnes is the biggest name in CBB this year and is going to be a high pick. He was the obvious answer for sheep.

i think drummond is a slam dunk over barnes. mebbe buying too much into the davis hype tho. lol fat sullinger def wont go over barnes and i bet epi as much.

it doesnt work like this. drummond has to prove little given his prototypical size and athleticism. see, hasheem thabeet and all the other iffy prospects that went super high almost entirely on potential.

and since drummond is actually good, he will certainly prove enough.

its funny you act like barnes is established. his season last yr was a disappointment. he went from the no-brainer top pick in the preseason to a 3-6 projection and then bitched out on the draft bc he was scared he would slip.

google is perfectly acceptable and even encouraged for sheep.

for peehs, where the object is to get a unique answer, it's forbidden.

again, i think he prob goes over barnes. have you seen him play though? he is not the physical/low post player that his his size suggests he would be, or that scouts will want him to be. not sure what you mean wrt hype for davis. he is by no means a lock to go over barnes and is below him on a # of mocks. he certainly could go over him b/c he is one of those athletic freak, but he could also fall as he is raw a la perry jones


maybe if the draft was midseason. he is currently projected 3rd or higher in most drafts in what is a deeper draft, but he would have gone lower this past draft? wat? second part of the bolded is w/e. lockout + his college related goals were the reason he returned. wants to be one of the unc greats, wants rangz, etc


edit: didn't realize googling was kosher in sheep

yes it does. if drummond could be drafted tmrw, he'd go 1. but because he has to play the entire season, it only gives him the opportunity to falter. Can't go any way but down. Hasheem Thabeet was pretty damn good in college. An iffy prospect doesn't go high due to potential, that's basically an oxymoron.

And of course Barnes is established. His season was a disappointment only in the sense that it's much harder to stay at the very top then it is to climb from the bottom. Although tbf, don't think Barnes was ever going #1. If drummond has a good season but a few other prospects show themself to be better than expected during their freshman year and rising in the rankings and knocking drummond down a few pegs by default, you'd say he disappointed by the same logic.

Barnes showed that he's a legit top prospect. I don't think him not being a top pick was the reason he didn't come out, especially because he would've been a top pick.
