Did Kimba Walkers' draft spot, rise or fall during tournyment?


I'm not sure why so many people want the Pistons to draft a 5' 11" combo guard with their 1st pick.Sure he had a pretty good year vs some very average Big East Point Guards.Big East got dominated in the Tourny because the guard play was weak.I think his deep tourny run actually hurt his draft stock.He was something like 11-34 shooting (1-9 from three PT range ) during the final four.The guards he faced from the Elite 8,Final 4,and Championship game,just sagged off him and let him 'try' to hit 12-15 FT jumpers and he had a hard time drawing iron on most of them (if you take away his 9 lay-ups in the 2 Final Four games ,he was 2-25 on jumpers.)

I think his draft went from 6-9 (lotto) down to somewhere in the late teens (16-19).Can the Pistons actually have another Ben Gordon type guy,on the roster.a guy too small for SG and not a good enough ball handler for a PG.During the UConn-Zona game ,they had a stat that Walker just passed Jason Kidd (California ) for the most turnovers in an NCAA season (something like 168) and he had 2 more games after that one.

There are 12-15 guys i'd take over K.Walker..
