Ernie is basically saying, “if you aren’t going to get immediate help, swing for the fences.”
He also continues the theory behind Blatche and Pech, get as many skilled beig men as you can. This kid is going to be legit…

I don't know...I'm looking at the "weaknesses" and
•Extremely weak physically
• Poor fundamentals
• Footwork/Post-moves
• Decision making (guess he won’t have the ball in his hands much)
• Basketball IQ (i.e., stupid)
• Atrocious defender (He’ll fit right in!)
• Poor activity level/Doesn’t hustle
• Mental/Physical toughness?
• Soft?
• Long ways away from contributing
• High bust potential

Chad Ford rips the pick
I’m not a huge fan of this pick, especially with a proven guy like Darrell Arthur on the board. McGee is a physical specimen, very long and athletic, and he has some skills. But he’s very soft and looks like he’s years away. He reminds me of Andray Blatche.

I wonder why exactly is he considered "soft"
Just because he doesn’t have strength? Or is he not hard nosed.
Kid can run and seems to have pick and pop-ability….and can block shots. Nice lower body strength is not too shabby.

Give him credit..
DraftExperss has a big write up on his workout and he has put on 8 pounds of muscle sent the end of school. So he knows he has to get stronger and tougher. But if you look at the film of him you can see he is not a physical player down low. But being able to block shots like he shows can not be taught.

Like I said earlier...the guy can block shots..
then you go from there. You just have to trust the body of work EG has done. This guy has a lot of physical skills and this team surely needed a shot blocker. But I do feel the guy is very soft.

THis is hilarious.
The problem is he’s extremely far from reaching his full potential—so far that you have to wonder if he’ll ever make it considering the way he looks at times on the court. Struggles to establish position and finish in the paint, settles for some incredibly awkward off-balance shots, and is virtually a black hole with his passing skills—averaging 4 turnovers for every 1 assist. Looks very disinterested at times, doesn’t hustle, gives up on plays, late getting back down the floor, and might be the worst man to man defender we’ve ever evaluated in the post. Gets pushed around, gambles excessively for steals, has no stance or fundamentals, doesn’t move his feet, and is a complete non-factor even against the mediocre competition he faces. According to Synergy’s "PlayType QuickTable stats," McGee was scored on 66% of the time when being posted up in the paint (against the likes of Fresno State, Utah State, Houston, etc). Is light years away from being able to compete on an NBA level defensively, if ever.

To be fair,
Here is the paragraph before the one you quoted:
Rare physical specimen—has an almost unprecedented combination of size, length (7-6), athleticism and fluidity, packed on a frame that should easily be able to fill out nicely. Has excellent hands, runs the floor exceptionally well, and is extremely reactive off his feet. Has an intriguing variety of skills too—the ability to knock down 3-pointers, put the ball on the floor, and execute some incredibly smooth pivot moves in the paint, finishing elegantly off the glass with excellent extension and touch. Gets off the ground impressively and can really be a factor as a shot-blocker or on the offensive glass. A late bloomer who barely played in high school and averaged just 10 minutes a game as a freshman—the sky is clearly the limit on his upside.

Which Highlight Reel?
The one I just looked at featured some nice dunks, but they were all (except one) in transition with no one around him. The one dunk where there was contact was one guy coming from behind to slap his arm before he dunked. Anybody in the NBA can throw down a nice dunk when he’s all by himself. I want to see what he can do when someone gives him the Brendan Haywood to LeBron treatment.

Walker to Boston for Cash?
My 8 year old could have ran this draft better as he would have picked a KU dude at least. I would have settled for Sasha Kan.
