What's new

Following potential 2015 draftees

Winslow's shot worries me. Booker's defense and overall athleticism worries me. Neither of those things are concerns with Oubre. He's the one guy in our range I feel confident will be a good defender (that 7'2 wingspan doe) and a good shooter (really smooth looking shot).

Isn't a 3&D player exactly what we're looking for?

And for those of you concerned with his personality and such, I really don't think you have enough info to say he'd be a locker room problem. The only one who might be able to make that type of claim is Monsieur Le Jones.
 
I really like Oubre.

Snyder said something in the post game interview that really caught my eye. He said when Hood shoots, he pulls the defense out. We need another shooter like that i think. Booker could be it, but what is Booker on this team? An eventual starter or really nice role player?
 
Rosters completed for World Select Team for Nike Hoops Summit.

the Select team is loaded at the 3-5 .

Ben Simmons 6-9
Tai Wynyard 6-10
Cheick Diallo 6-9
Skal Labissiere 6-11
Thon Maker 7-0

Filthy.

I don't know much about the guards other than Jamal Murray but that front line is legit. Will be a good chance for scouts to evaluate Wynyard against some good competition during the game and practices leading up to it.
 
Devin booker! His defense will suprise at the next level and I see him starting next to hayward and Exum.

While I do think Booker could be our best option at where we'll be picking it's almost all cause of his offense filling a need at the 2 for us: shooting and good decision making. His defense is subpar and I expect it to stay that way.
 
Lol if you believe that. Self is just doing his part on stock boosting. Remember, Coach Cal thought Enes was the Turkish Karl Malone.

Maybe you're right, but at the same time, I don't recall him ever praising Wiggins' or McLemore's leadership.

You got to change it up to be sincere. Also pretty sure Oubre's biggest negative is being labeled as "selfish", so calling him the best leader helps offset that.
 
Would Oubre's personality be toxic to the Jazz in your opinion?

No, I'm just playin. Oubre is not known to be a cancer, just needs to be pushed.. Not a self-driven guy like you would ideally want. Not a bad kid, just a tad entitled/lazy. And even that may be behind him.

I'm just piling on for piling on sakes with that other stuff.
