Well it appears the Bucks will draft a big man. Scouting Director Billy McKinney made that pretty darn clear yesterday when we talked to him. I would've liked to see a scoring 2-3 at #12 next year, but it appears a PF/C is coming to Milwaukee. The "experts" seem to think GM John Hammond will choose UNC big man Tyler Zellar. I don't really care for this. McKinney basically told us Zeller won't get a lot better in the NBA. Really? That's the guy you're using your 1st round pick on? take a gamble. Take a risk. Why not? Here's a list of 3 players I'd rather see the Bucks take over Zeller at pick #12
-Austin Rivers, SG- Duke. If Monta Ellis is gone after this year, the 6' 5" SG would slide in with his instant office nicely.
-Perry Jones III, PF/C- Baylor. TREMENDOUS "up-side". Big man who can run the floor, block shots & clean up a mess.
-Terrence Jones, SF/PF- Kentucky. At 6'9" a tremendous mismatch with ability to score everywhere. And i like players coming out of Calipari's system.
we shall see....more on the draft next week..
cheers...
