     Hope kent bazemore makes it to the team. He has the potential to be a good defensive stopper in the nba. i watched one of his summer league games against the bulls and he had like 7 blocks then, for a guard that’s really impressive

      I like Bazemore too, he has the potential to find a nitch in the league as a defensive specialist.  I hope he gets on somewhere to start the season.

     What happened to Drew Gordon? He was in about every 2nd round mock draft and was seen rarerly in the end of the 1st round mocks.
