Hawks draft Teague: Young PG

[FlipKing]

Good selection IMO

[sogood]

How so? He's undersized and won't be able to defend NBA PGs for shit. He's basically a more offensive minded Mike Bibby. I'd love to be proven wrong, but I just don't see it happening.

[FlipKing]

Look at where they were picking and look what they were able to pick up, good selection. A little small but good scorer. Will need work to be a true point.

I know very well what number pick they had, but that still doesn't negate the fact that Teague is just a more athletic version of Bibby. If they really wanted to stick with selecting a guard, I really think Toney Douglas would be a better option (and that says a lot coming from a Gators fan, lol). Sam Young or Dejaun Blair would've been good picks, too, IMO.

i like teague...reminds me of gilbert arenas before the injuries...as long as teague makes progress, than i like him...hope he's not the next acie law

This move will not make up for the fact that the FUKD UP and passed on Chris Paul.

Very True...The Hawks suck at drafting players ( i know this thread was brought up the other day)...

2000-DeMarr Johnson SCRUB
2001-Pau Gasol Good NBA PLAYER Traded him
2002-no picks thank goodness, wouldve been a scrub
2003-Boris Diaw Quality player but Traded away
2004-Josh Childress Quality player but left to overseas, Josh Smith Great pick
2005-Marvin Williams- ok, but Chris Paul???
2006-Shelden Williams-major scrub traded away
2007-Al Horford..great pick, Acie Law another scrub
2008-no pick, wouldve screwed up
2009-jeff teague-too early

[FlipKing]

we'll see. Def a work in progress but they did make a great trade

I like teague but who was the scrub they drafted in the second round.
