Wizards need Jeremy Lamb

But my question is he what we need most?

Right now, it looks like PF is going to be our worst position, with Dray not playing well, and getting injured.

I also believe a PG is best served having a big man compliment, instead of a SG compliment, because it is easier for them to work off of each other.

So I’m more in favor of Sullinger right now. I’d have to take harder looks at Drummond and Davis as well.

Pardon my French.

No matter how good Lamb or any other draftee may be, they’ll still be rookies next season.

We need a dominant big (period). We can acquire a scorer in the free agency pool. But we need to draft the best available talent. Andre Drummond should be a Senior in high school right now but he skipped his Senior year to join UCONN’s program. He doesn’t get any touches for UCONN at all. He’s still a bit raw but he has the most potential in the draft. Anthony Davis is a shorter JaVale McGee. Jared Sullinger is the most NBA ready big on the draft board. I just want to know his real height. Is he 6’8 or 6’10? We need a defensive minded big man with offensive skills which Andre Drummond posses.

Jeremy Lamb can shoot very well. He’s a good catch and shoot but what some of you don’t realize is he can’t dribble. He can’t create his own shot. We don’t set good enough screens for a player to just catch and shoot. SMH

The best thing that Lamb provides is that he is great off the ball, and you can easily teach players how to set better screens. Lamb is the perfect complement to Wall. Not to mention his elite length will make him a great defender. Lamb has also greatly improved on the ball scoring also.

I like Drummond, but his terrible free throw percentage worries me. When your that bad of a free throw shooter, I highly doubt that you will ever be able to develop a mid range/ face up game.

While there are some similarities between Anthony Davis and Mcgee there are also some very large differences. Davis is a way better shooter than Mcgee. Davis is light years ahead of Mcgee when it comes to basketball awareness. Just watching Davis play you can tell he has a natural feel for the game. Also Davis has no attitude problems. There’s a reason why many people have Davis going first overall.

He also has a 7 foot wingspan

PG is set. I hope Wall/Mack are here together for a while.
Young is probably gone after this year. Crawford is an unapolagetic chucker. I like Lamb and I like his scoring touch and lord knows this team needs shooters, and I think Lamb would come in to DC in a much better position from a developmental standpoint than Nick did.
We have like 5 guys who get minutes at the 3 or 4. The thing is, not one of them really is a solid all around player, at least not yet. Ves, Book, Singleton, are all offensively challenged hustle and D guys.
I’m also a little more hesitant to draft a guy like Davis or Drummond since they both seem to be a tad raw and in need of some developing. Our entire team is raw. At some point in the rebuild we need to stop drafting project players and start drafting a player who can contribute right away.

Gordon- one of my favorite young players in the NBA. Great shooter with a picture perfect jumpshot, explosive athlete, and not afraid to play some defense. Although he was a big part of the CP3 trade, I still feel like he flies under the radar a bit. He would be a great fit next to Wall in the backcourt. I would be willing to throw a lot of money at him this summer in order to obtain him. If we have the ability to get him, he should be our number one priority. To do this, we may have to amnesty Lewis, but I think Leonsis would be willing to do this if he could get a great young player like Gordon.

Drummond (via NBAdraft.net)- Midway through the season, Drummond has the pole position to be the top overall pick. At 6-foot-10 270 lbs, Drummond is said to be the fastest player on the UConn team. Remarkable when you consider that most players lose their mobility when they bulk up to his size. This from an NBA scout, “I see guys like (Anthony) Davis all the time, guys like Drummond are rare. It’s been 5 years since the last one (physically dominant, elite level bigman) which was Oden.” He is in the same category athletically with Amar’e and Dwight Howard and while he’s still raw offensively, he shows excellent finishing touch around the basket. The biggest chink in his armor is his free throw shooting, where he hits at a miserable sub-40% rate.

I like Anthony Davis more than this scout, and wouldn’t mind him on the Wiz, but I really think Drummond could be something special. I’ve seen most of Uconn’s games and I really like what I see from him. That write-up says he is raw offensively, but he has definitely shown glimpses of what he could be. He can actually handle the ball pretty well for his size, and I have seen him make several turnaround jumpers. His skillset is definitely similar to Amare’s when he first came out. And as corny as it sounds, you truly cannot teach size. He is huge and athletic. Anthony Davis does not have the body type to be able to put on the weight and muscle like Drummond has.

If we were able to draft Drummond and sign Eric Gordon, I would make one more move by trading Andre Blatche for whatever we could possibly get. Drummond would make Blatche expendable from Day 1. Blatche obviously has talent, but I truly think he is a cancer to this team and needs to go. Would love to get a shooter/swingman to replace him. Also, there is no way we resign Nick Young.

2012-13 lineup:
PG- Wall, Mack
SG- Gordon, Crawford, What we get for Blatche
SF- Singleton, Booker, What we get for Blatche
PF- Drummond, Vesely
C- Mcgee, Seraphin

Not bad if you ask me…what do you guys think?
