I actually did thing he played well, he just did not play like a top 10 player. There is a huge difference between the two. I think Chris Bosh is a great player. He just is not top 10. Too many other great players. I just wouldn't build a franchise around him. Toronto tried to and it did not work out that well for them. He is a great 2nd option though. You just won't win championships or even make it out of the first round if you try to build around him.

I dont want Chris Bosh anywhere near the Wizards.

Quick note on Timmy Duncan, #1 most boring player of all time.

Alex Len may go #1 overall, with Dipo at 2 to Orlando.

Going to be an interesting draft if it shakes out like this.

Re: 2012-13 Around the NBA thread

I wonder if the Wiz have serious interest in Oladipo, especially if he is there at number 3 and say Porter isn't.

Alex Len isnt worthy of the number 1 pick IMO. I honestly hope he is picked before us though because we know how happy Grunfield is when a European big man is available.

We've heard the Deng and Wiz rumor right?

Yeah, and if that happens or the Iyllasova (or however you spell his name) rumor, you can bet that the wizards will have a lottery pick next year as well as a new GM, Coach and Wall may be out of here as well.

I think it's dead in the water... although with Ernie, you never know.

I hope the wizards get a top 2 pick next year. The only way the wizards are going to get a star (which you need in the NBA) is by asking stern or silver to hook them up with a draft pick next year. But I can only hope the wizards get the next Tracy McGrady in wiggins.

I just think you could get a younger 15 point, 6.5 rebounder right now at 3. Deng not gonna sign here after next year. Ernie is an effing fool to do that.

Re: 2012-13 Around the NBA thread

So the NBA draft is on tonight.

Cavs have the number 1 pick, Orlando have number 2 and the Wiz pick 3rd. Lots of people think either Noel or Len goes 1 and either Maclemore or Oladipo goes 2 leaving the Wiz to pick either Otto Porter or Anthony Bennett.

Thoughts?

I'd go with Bennett over Porter since Bennett has always produced. Porter would disappear come tournament time (Big East and NCAA)
