Top 7 Wizards Draft Options

Flip Saunders talked at a meet the coach event about how the Wizards were considering about 7 different guys for the #5 Pick. Today, Wizards Insider has some ideas on who the 7 guys are, but I have my own ideas on the top 7 guys the Wiz should consider.

1. Stephen Curry

• Very smart player. Continuing his college education even though going to be drafted.

2. Stephen Curry

• Money from the outside. This guy could melt a cheese sandwich from across the room with his jumper.

3. Stephen Curry

• Mom & Dad will be hangin at the Verizon Center, giving me my best opportunity to get a Dell Curry autograph.

4. Stephen Curry

• Led Davidson (the college, not the last name) to the sweet 16. This will never happen again.

5. Stephen Curry

• Lebron is already used to watching him hit long bombs, so it shouldn't upset the queen next year seeing the same thing.

6. Stephen Curry

• It will be fun to call him Hen Curry, in the same way his dad Wadell was called Dell Curry.

7. Stephen Curry

• Loyola strategized that stopping Curry from scoring was the only way to win. They double, triple, quadruple teamed him. Curry's team still won by 30.

The only reason I see that the Wizards should not draft Curry is because his brother is going to Duke. That is it.

Workout Reviews

The Washington Post was in the house for the workouts this afternoon to watch Stephen Curry, Brandon Jennings, and more.

Wizards Insider talks about the players games, and is impressed with Curry, Jennings, and even A.J. Price. WI thinks that Curry is the most NBA ready, and says that he was impressive in his interviews with the Wizards. Thats what I like to hear!

"The first thing I noticed was that Curry's jumper really was pure like Artisian water."

Sports Bog was more impressed with local celebrities that he saw like Vinny Cerrato. He asked the important questions like what classes Stephen Curry was taking, what it was like for Jennings living in Rome, and the shortness of Flynn. He talked about how tough the workout was and got some quotes from the workout participants.

"It's more physical in the NBA?" he asked. "I think it's more physical overseas. You know, they don't call anything. You can grab, you can choke a player out, you can do anything."

Wizards Workouts Starring Stephen Curry

Back in 1993, before my move to the DC area, my favorite team was the Charlotte Hornets. This was based on the team colors, and the fact that they had the smallest player in the NBA, my favorite player Muggsy Bogues.

While the team also had Larry Johnson and Alonzo Mourning, my 2nd favorite player was 6th man Dell Curry. Dell Curry was money. That guy could hit 3 after 3.

I would take the time in Tecmo Baskeball before every game to sub in "Wadell Curry" and he couldn't miss from the top corner. Needless to say, he was among the league leaders in scoring.

When Davidson made it into the spotlight, and Stephen Curry emerged a tournament star, I couldn't help but love him. So all I can say is Yes! Yes! Yes! Stephen Curry will be working out with the Wizards this week!

There is a lot of talk that Curry wants to play for the Knicks and the Knicks want to pick him. There was even talk about secret deals in place between the two, all denied.

Stephen Curry is to short. He isn't heavy enough. He doesn't have enough muscle. So why should the Wizards pick him?

The Wizards need a 3 point shooter. Curry would not only be this immediately, but would also have the potential to be a scorer as well. He could be a great...6th man! Just like dad.

Curry is the only draft choice I would be happy with. If they don't plan to pick Curry they need to trade the pick. Curry Curry Curry!!!!!!!!!!
