My boy Drew is going to be a VERY good player for them for a long time. They did well to land him now. I'm not saying he'll ever be as good as Dwight, but he'll be a very good starter for them that helps put pieces together to replace him.
Going to be awkward rooting for Orlando since they're in the East, but it's about to happen. Magic are number 2 in my heart, and I don't do the whole "2nd favorite team" shit.
9th man.

Oh, because he went to a small school? Like Bob Lanier. Or more recently Damian Lillard. Dude dominated the A10, a VERY good basketball conference.
Could be. Thepotential is definately there, however there is a reason that he dropped to 19th, and wasn't selected 1st.

well that's not really a fair statement. Nobody was going 1st but Davis. Then there is a lot of deep talent in this draft. 19th isn't the 2nd round. You're looking for role guys at 19. They got a guy who can start in the NBA down the road, in my mind.

I never heard of the guy til tonight, but his highlights certainly stood out. If I didn't know any better I'd put him in my top 5 just based on first impressions.
i ****ing hope so
Solid role player and that's about all I thought. Plus if we re sign Anderson he will see very little minutes as he can't play the 3 or the 5 apparently.
justin harper again?

He's much more talented then Harper, he's a safe pick from the look of it. Solid contributor from the bench right away apparently.

Easy, there.
It's a decent conference, but don't get carried away.

:/ that sucks
[QUOTE=Jameerthefear]:/ that sucks[/QUOTE]
A solid role player at 19 isn't too bad if he is the safe pick people think he is. May not have star potential but at least he should be rotation ready right away if Anderson walks.
[QUOTE=HylianNightmare]i ****ing hope so[/QUOTE]
haha This! We are all hoping! Seems to be a fair amount of positive talk about him which is good
i expect to see him at the backup 3 or 5 spot
[QUOTE=HylianNightmare]i expect to see him at the backup 3 or 5 spot[/QUOTE]
Orlando media asked if he could play the 3 and he said politely "no I'm a power forward".
I don't mind the pick. It's abit of a let down we didn't take a chance on a star player but he should be solid. I like the O'Quin pick too i thought he'd fit in well.

Rotation guy whether or not Anderson walks. He can get minutes at the four even with Davis and Anderson. He CAN play the 5 when lineups go four... he was a center at many many times in his college career (I know, much different, but teams go with small lineups all the time). Anderson can also play the three at times. He'll get solid minutes.

I hope he does I've only watch highlight vids of his and read articles. From his videos i thought he looked like he could adjust to the 3 in the future but most people seem to say that's a definite no? If he can play the 5 abit it would be awesome having another big to pair with Ryno who can knock it down from outside.

Orlando found somebody to take Earl Clark's place on the bench. As lackluster of a pick as any.

Also, I'm sorry OP, but I really can't believe what you say considering he's been in your avatar for weeks.
i like him; he's got game. i don't know about steal but i think he can give you an occasional double double, which is something a borderline lotto pick should give you in the right situation
If they can keep Dwight, Nicholson could be a great complimentary player for him.

Mississippi State a small school? SEC a "very" good conference? :facepalm
Him compared to Moe Harkless?
He has small shoes to fill.
