    I’m seeing more and more mocks having him drop down to my Pacers at 11.  I keep hearing about his lateral quickness and ability to guard multiple positions.  Could he possibly be another body to throw at Lebron for stretches of the game.  I’d think his size and quickness could potentially slow Lebron down and would allow Paul George to get some rest throughout the game.

     Yeah, rim protector, versatile defender anywhere on the court.  Great athlete.  He should go higher…  He woudl be the best guy on the board at 11.  Take him then figure it out.

    I wonder if this spells the end for Mr. Hibbert

      It seems like a widely known secret that the Pacers want him gone; want to move to a fast-paced team and he’s anything but.

    I would be surprised if he falls to 6th. The Kings will take him at 6th if the Magic don’t take him 5th.

     

     The Kings backup plan included Hezonja and Porzingis if WCS isn’t available. I doubt that he will fall below 5th though. Orlando will probably be taking him.

     WSC is a good prospect but he’s not up there w/ the top 4 (KAT, Oak, Russel and Mudiay), and i dont think he would get picked prior to #6 pick (Kings).

    There’s a good chance he falls to Pacers "IF" Kings pass on the guy.  I am not high on him because his ceiling is probably Tyson Chandler (a bit bigger and more athletic).

    Ya, Indy has let it be known that they rather Hibbert decline his Player option so they can move on. They really want WCS. I doubt Hibbert declines though, since he can get all 14 mill next season, then become a FA next Summer when the cap sky rockets. If Im Indy, I try to get Portland to take Hibbert. Remember they signed Hibbert to his RFA deal, which Indy had to match. Portland will have the cap space to take Hibbert outright, if they let Matthews walk. They may feel pressured to do so in an effort to appease Aldridge. W/ Afflalo at sg, and McCulum as the 6th man, they will do ok w/o Matthews.

     I can see a trade happening, but there is almost a 0% chance that he will fall past the Kings let alone down to Indiana’s pick. I wouldn’t put much stock into this sites mock draft. They have the Kings taking Winslow. The Kings have Rudy Gay at SF and we drafted two lottery SGs in the last two drafts. The kings need a PF or C that can block some shots, and defend. Fans are kind of tired of Jason Thompson starting at PF every year. He’s not very good. 

    It’s quite funny that people vote down posts because they don’t like the comment. WCS is NOT falling to Indiana. Guaranteed.

       Karl has stated to Gay that he’ll play a lot of pf this year. I like it actually. With that said, they could very well target a sf.

     Bird is in love with him since his a center that could be used in a small-ball line up to effectively guard quicker player and still provide rim-protection. He called him a $100 million dollar player. Very high praise.

    If he gets passed the Kings I could see it happening. Depends on if they make the Ty Lawson trade or if Mudiay is still on the board or if they just say screw it and make Gay their full power forward and take another shooter like Hezonja. Although Detroit and Miami might be on BPA mode, regardless of Drummond and Whiteside. And if Denver makes that Lawson trade and acquires another pick, he might be in play for them.

    So basically a lot of scenerio still give them a very low chance that he falls to them.

      Don’t want to take away what Bird said but he also feels very excited about Kaminsky and that they follow his progression for years now. 

      Not surprised he likes big men if you look at the remaining pieces of what once was Roy Hibbert…

      on the orher hand the Pacers have holes to fill at almost every position and really need scoring and someone whocan bring up the ball.
