The WTF Official 2010 NBA Draft Watch

[Hermy]

He could be Kwame. I'm not sure if that's a bust at #8.

[RegicideGreg]

He should get a new non-Ostertag, Montross, Reeves inspired haircut

[Zekyl]

He could be Kwame. I'm not sure if that's a bust at #8.

If we picked the next Kwame at #8, everyone here would count that as a negative Joe Dumars draft pick. In the top 10, you'd better be getting than a mediocre backup C.

[Hermy]

Yeah, you'd better if you want to win. But it's what you get more often than now. I guess Amare and Bynum were taken around there, so it can happen.

[Glenn]

Missed most of the game, how did Aldrich look?

[Glenn]

I haven't seen much of Cousins, who is most compared to?

Kinda looks like Dampier from the few minutes I've seen tonight.

[Hermy]

Dampier if he was good for 17 points a game. Think a young Sheed before he learned about the 3. Big but can still move down the court.

Aldrich looked like Aldrich. Good defender, limited with the ball.

[Hermy]

LOL @ Dampier getting out on the break like this.

[Glenn]

Dood, I based that on how he looked in pregame warmups (largely just physical appearance) and about 3 minutes of game action, lol. I told you that I had hardly ever seen him before.

[Shoopy]

Cousins' game reminds me nothing of Sheed.

Cousins' post moves are limited to baseline spins, up-and-unders, and the occasional faceup drive.

Sheed's ratio of fadeaway turnarounds to spins and to-the-basket moves is pretty lopsided.

On top of that, Cousins isn't especially long or athletic. He's more bulky/slow.
