Any thoughts? I dont really follow college ball... I know hes projected to go in the 2nd round..

Maybe they are preparing if they need to include CJ in a deal for a SG

Meh.

Depends what the other moves are around this.

But is he a solid player? Anyone followed him through college?

He goes (or I suppose went) to my college so I've seen a few games of him playing. The team pretty much lived and died by his play. He's a pretty good scorer and playmaker, but nothing special. He's not better than CJ.

So it'd be cool for you being a Bulls fan if we did draft him!!

I dunno if it necessarily means CJ is getting traded they could be just building assests...

I have a lot of confidence in the Bulls drafting lately, Omer, Taj, Jo and even Drose (not everyone was completely sold on him over Beasley, :Cough: Stacey King :Cough:

He went to the U of I. I've watched him his whole career.

Pros : Ability to shoot of the dribble, finishes well at the hoop, above average body control, mid-range and outside shooting.

Cons : Very streaky ( this could go either way I suppose), not the greatest defender, pretty slow, poor leaping ability, also has so attitude problems.

I think it'd be cool to see him on the team, but I wouldn't really want to see him picking up C.J. Watson type minutes for us.

i'd think you're better off going with another guy...jmo

Yeah it'd be cool, but not like when Deron Williams, Luther Head, or Dee Brown got drafted (granted I wasn't in college then and Brown kinda sucked in the NBA). But seeing a guy that you know went to school with you (though granted never saw him in person on campus or at the gym xD) in the NBA is always cool. McCamey could be serviceable as the 3rd pg on the roster, definitely better than Pargo or JL3.

Where we're drafting, im not excited about anyone. I dont think this team needs rookies. We need to package up these picks and try to get a proven player in this league who can come right in and complement our boys.

 

[BigP50]

I like it, D-Mac is awesome off the bench.

 

[Lex L.]

No thanks.

If we're looking for a back-up PG...I'd rather have Nolan Smith. He'll also be available at the end of the first round, is a better ball-handler, a better shooter, and comes from a better program.

 

[GaelicSoxFan]

Pass. He had some asswipe (sorry, AAU coach) consistently whispering in his ear.

 

[sicko]

would rather get Marshon Brooks if possible, but with him doing well at the Combine, he probably won't be around now when the Bulls make their pick
