    What about Gonzaga, Stanford and Harvard?

    Brook and Robin Lopez played against alot of NBA talent in the Pac-10

    Yea Jason Thompson came out of Rider but are you suggesting this man should go 12th in the draft?

    Bro it’s John Bryant. If he makes an all star game you can personally appear at my address, slap me in the face and say “I told you so.” I really don’t see it happening.

    I didnt say he is going to be a allstar but he has a chance to be a starter and at worst be a good player off the bench

    I guess I could see him getting drafted. My Bulls need a C who can score, but Aaron Gray already does what Bryant does but better. Plus, he’s got him by 2 inches and played well for a sweet 16 team. If Bryant was good, the thought process is that he would have done more to contribute in college to be worth drafting. I mean, Santa Clara lost to a Harvard team that started 4 guards and 1 forward. Bryant scored about 15 with 14 boards and 5 blocks, which is pretty damn good. Then, he played against Josh Heytvelt and Gonzaga and had similar points and boards but gave up 29 and 9 directly across from Hetvelt. If you saw that game, you would know that Heytvelt looked like the much better player on the court, followed by the other Gonzaga “big man” Austin Daye. Heytvelt is going to be a second rounder himself so out of ALL of basketball, do you think that Bryant would be taken just a few picks later? That’s just one example. If he gets with a strength and agility coach and is able to put together some impressive work-outs for an NBA squad, he can be signed outright as an undrafted free agent. Kind of like Brad Miller. If I were taking a big, slow footed, limited skilled center late in the second round of the draft I would probably take a foreign born player unless I thought he could contribute immediately.

    Of course, some scout somewhere could have seen a tape of him playing and really liked what he saw and that team could take him anywhere in the 2nd. The second round is a crap shoot.

    It’s still John Bryant dude. He’s got a better shot of being an insurance salesman, Groccery Bagger, High School Janitor or Pedofile. I know I wouldn’t let him watch my kids for ten minutes, would you? He will not last in the NBA and my offer still stands. I’ll even give you my address if you want to take it seriously.

      Actually, I was talking about you, but I was kidding. I didn’t. I think that I flagged a couple of people before on accident when I meant to hit “reply” and wasn’t really paying attention. Plus, even though it is a perfectly correct basketball term, “lets double team him” just sounds gross.

      I wasn’t kidding about the negative a million, billion points though. I really did that to you and there’s nothing you can do about it! In your face! Boom goes the dynamite!

      Dude, although I was just making a lame ass joke, I actually had your back. I am hoping that John Bryant becomes an all-star though so someone can drive to your house and smack you across the face. Ha! That’s funny man. You crack me up.

      “Do you want to smell like me?” Ha. Check out the Sportscenter promo with big Gheorge. He is “just dancin”. It’s great.

    That’s a big difference financially too. If you look at Tyrus Thomas and LaMarcus Aldridge, the difference is that LaMarcus (#2) makes $5,844,000 million and Thomas (#2) makes $4,743,000 million in 2009-2010. That’s a $1.1 million difference. That usually seems like chump change in the NBA but that will pay for Darrell Arthur’s salary in 2009-2010. It makes some sense for the Grizz who, no offense, are trying to save some money every chance they get.

    Damn, now I am going to HAVE to put Bryant into my mock draft. Seriously, I can’t not put him in the 2nd round now after all this talk about him. Especially if he does get drafted I won’t be able to forgive myself. My friends and I always have a friendly little wager about the 2nd round by the way, in case you thought I took the draft THAT seriously (and was emotionally unstable…well, I am but not in regards to the NBA Draft).

    another rookie in the starting lineup wouldnt help us
    i feel we trade the pick but not take a big

    we already got darrell arthur

    trade the pick and get some help for the bench

    go after a PF in free agency and more help for the bench

    i can see charlie v giving up 16 and 8 next year

    if the bucks dont sign him back

    gasol
    charlie v
    rudy
    mayo
    conley

    4-8 pick whichever team offers the most or best players
    rubio sure as hell aint the answer
    we already got a PG that cant shoot
    y draft another

    let jaric, buckner, go

    bench with arthur, hak, darko, freeagent, rookie, rookie

    hak can score off the bench
    darko has his nights
    the freeagent im thinking flip murray he can play pg/sg and can score wit the best of bench players
    rookie tyreke evans , or james harden

    and the 27th pic draft a pg

    thats just my input

    GO GRIZZ

    If we can’t get a 2-8 swap done with new york, or a 2-4 swap with Sacramento I think we just draft Rubio and see where it goes. I like arthur, but he reminds me of a Marvin Williams clone and is better suited for the bench. I just see them ending up with Jordan Hill when everythings said and done.

    No he is not…he played a couple of ok NBA players now.

    Lets compare.

    John Bryant played in the WCC, where the Zags are thier only threat. He played the Lopez twins once.

    Blake Griffin played in the Big 12. Cole Aldrich, Mike Beasley, Julian Wright, Darell Arthur, Craig Brackins.

    Jordan Hill played in the Pac-10. Brook and Robin Lopez, Kevin Love, Jon Brockman, Cole Aldrich, Ryan Anderson

    Hasheem Thabeet played in the Big East. DeJuan Blair, Terrence Jennings, Samardo Samuels, Luke Harangody, Greg Monroe, Roy Hibbert, Big Baby Davis

    and all these guys are or will be NBA guys. Bryant played 3 quality big men, Griffin 5, Hill 7 and Thabeet 7.
