Re: Washington Wizards 2011-2012 Ongoing Thread
I'm intrigued by the Mack pick... It would be great if he turned out to be a Kyle Lowry-type perimeter defender.
I'll just have to warm up to Vesely some time... Wall's got athletes that can run with him now. With Singleton on board, we're building a defensive presence too. |

Providing the fanbase continue to exhibit patience, I envision the Wizards being more than just an afterthought in a few years. I admire the way they're going about their business after the break-up.

One more year of sucking should yield us one more high lottery pick and complete the team.

I am pumped about the Celtics pick. Been watching Brooks for awhile at PC and he is a gamer.

Re: Washington Wizards 2011-2012 Ongoing Thread
Great picks. Vesely....GREAT pick. I was hoping they'd pick Mack when I saw he was still there. Singleton should be a solid player too. Not a star, but solid.
Nice draft. Building a bright future after the housecleaning.

Re: Washington Wizards 2011-2012 Ongoing Thread
Also, Derrick Williams > Kyrie Irving.
The Cavs blew it. Irving is unproven (11 games in college?) and possibly NOT a team player. When he came back, he played well...and his team lost, looking horrible. Irving is talented, but not #1-pick talented. Derrick Williams is a better player in my opinion. I may have even taken Brandon Knight over Irving. I just think there's too much risk with that kid.

Re: Washington Wizards 2011-2012 Ongoing Thread
A lot of the pundits really liked the Wizards draft this year. I don't think I've seen them with anything lower then an A-.
WASHINGTON WIZARDS GRADE: A Round 1: Jan Vesely (6), Chris Singleton (18, obtained from Atlanta) Round 2: Shelvin Mack (34) Analysis: This was a critical summer for the Wizards. Drafting John Wall was easy last year. This year, the challenge was to surround him with players who complement his talents. Mission accomplished. Vesely is one of the most athletic forwards in the draft and should be great flying up and down the floor with Wall. Singleton is also a terrific athlete and the best defender in the draft. Factor in Shelvin Mack as a solid backup guard at No. 34, and the Wizards came away more athletic and tougher. That's a great draft.

Rumor that Howard is being traded to the lakers this weekend for Bynum, odom, and first round draft picks. Deal is supposedly done, but I can't confirm
