Lamb plays excellent defense. I just worry about his strength being a problem in the NBA

We NEED to get into the Top 3 of this draft.
For as much as everyone is talking about how good this draft class is, and they're right, because it's deep, there's still a BIG drop off From Davis, MKG, Beal to the next group of guys.

I thought he was a SG?
Based on what?
On the fact that I don't watch College Basketball, and at some point my brain coined the phrase "SG: MKG" and I never cared to see if it was actually right... 
Am I the only one that pronounces hyperbole "Hyper-bowl" instead of "hy-per-bo-le"?

footspeed and technique yes. I was saying that I worried about his strength since he is so rail thin. Kobe would just eat him alive posting him up all day as would a ton of other SGs.
Honestly, it's an okay problem to have because in 2-3 years I think he could be elite on both ends of the floor and he seems to have the desire to work on both ends.

Barnes looks the part, but he just doesn't seem to get it. I think the right coach could turn him into a great player. The right coach being a guy like Pop, who could make me a decent 8th man off the bench.

I think I would hit 2-3 GW shots for the Spurs if they put me at the end of their bench. And I am a terrible shot

So how much would Kentucky beat the Bobcats by?

We've got to bench Hudson. He's going to win this game for us if we let him play.

He saw that the SG is actually supposed to ..... I dunno .... score?

Man .... I looked a couple of minutes ago and Hudson had 11 points. Now he's got 23, and the Cavaliers lead by 13.

The Bobcats are just absolutely awful.
I'd accuse them of tanking but they just seem to be a complete and utter disaster.
The Cavs are carting out 2 D-Leaguers (playing a combined 65 minutes) and Charlotte lost by 13.
After seeing them play this game, I'm not surprised they only have 7 wins. It's amazing a team can have only one decent piece (Henderson) after spending 7 of their 8 years in the lottery.

I am just stunned by Hudson. Where the heck did this guy come from? he's throwing down 20 per game ..... plus he's doing a nice job as far as assists and rebounds. He needs work on defense ..... but man, he looks like a guy who could be a nice piece here.

REally lost a good chance to make headway today. Washington beat orlando and now sacramento is losing. We've got to up the effort if we really are serious about tanking.

They're easily worse than the 0-16 Lions. The might be the worst team in the history of pro sports.

Sean May
really he describes their ineptitude as well as anything. even Sean May knew he was going to be a cruddy NBA player (very undersized PF who had injury concerns), but the Bobcats took him because they thought a UNC player would sell tickets.
then they trade Gerald Wallace (their only good player) and Stephen Jackson (completely nuts but at least he could defend) so that they could completely bottom out. except they are bottoming out more than any team I can ever remember. they are worse than the year-before-LeBron-Cavs. they better hope that they get Anthony Davis for their efforts and that he is that good.
they'll probably get the #2 pick and take Drummond

Getting back to the Cavaliers ........ who knew that Hudson would be this damn good?
If we'd had him earlier in the year when we had Irving and Varejao, we might be in the playoffs now.
He was not only the leading scorer tonight with 25, he also led the team in assists and rebounds. He just seems to be getting better as he gets more into the system.
Man, if we can teach him to defend we might really have something here. As it is, he looks like a guy who will be able to fill the role that Gibson was supposed to fill, that being a guy who can back up both Guard spots, and who can provide offense off the bench. Hard to believe that we found both him and Gee on the NBA scrap heap. I'm not saying that either will be a long term starting solution, let alone a star player ..... but Gee has shown enough to be considered at least a solid backup type who can carry decent minutes without hurting the team, and Hudson might be capable of joining him in that category by season's end.
