    No way he does that without a promise. He's a 1st rounder all the way.

    Both are versatile, but DiVincenzo probably more so. Huerter is going to bring insane shooting. He's got a great floor because of that. Huerter is an underrated defender and plays well within a system. DiVincenzo is probably a more well-rounded talent, but lacks the "ace-in-hole" that is Huerter's shooting.

    Damn. What a need DiVi would fill and such great chemistry to come in a similar highest quality person and competitor to Hart with their instant chemistry added to the amazing chemistry already here on the team.

    BUT we have to get Deng the hell out of here or it's going to cost Randle if LBJ and PG both come. Still having faith that Rob can pull all that off. No first round pick?

    Everything that I've read and watched this is a good summary.

    But because we already have Hart and this I think Huerter needs to be our selection. Not to say having two Hart type players is bad, it's not. Just being dead last in 3 last year that's a huge need for us. Huerter immediately fills that need and isn't too bad at the other things either which I feel can be developed even more.

    Divicenzo is a good shooter as well, just not as insane a shooter as Huerter. Some might think this is an insult, but DiVincenzo reminds me a bit of a bigger Jordan Farmar. Really good creating offense, some holes defensively but coachable there.

    I wouldn't mind a Huerter pick though. There's always room in the league for his kind of shooting.

    You can tell just by looking at video for a few seconds. I said he was too small just last night from a blurry video, did they really think they could fool pros?

    Just heard him getting some hype on local espn radio today. He is probably on the General radar now and not fall to #25. We shall see.

    "Not fall to #25"

    No way he gets drafted in the 1st Round with a guaranteed contract. I'd even be surprised to see a team draft him in the 2nd Round. I believe he'll get a summer league invite from someone though

    how do you have such bad view of Donte? Considering his combine stats were solid and he showed well in the scrimmage games too.

    Oh jeez, I thought @Jaguar was talking about LiAngelo Ball. Good grief, my reading comprehension was bad there. Too much Ball news today...
