What's new

Following potential 2014 draftees

Let the full on tank mode begin next season (phony injuries to the core 4, bottom of the barrel vets should get it done). With Ty still coaching, we should be a lock for the number one pick.

Wiggins would be worth it. He looks to have skills above and beyond!

With sure fire all star runner up prizes even if you don't get Wiggins. I'm down.
 
Anyone intending to post in this thread should be planning to watch this Wednesday's MickeyD's game.
 
This is an email I got from someone on the UK coaching staff (not a coach).. outlining their thoughts from today's MickeyD's practice.

Aaron Gordon was the best player in the gym today. Julius Randle, Dakari Johnson and Andrew Wiggins were very good.

James Young and Marcus Lee missed most of practice with minor injuries, both will be fine by tomorrow.

That leaves the Harrison twins. To be honest, neither one was anywhere near their best today.

Aaron struggled with shot selection and didn't finish opportunities that he normally would. Andrew was a little careless with the ball, leading to some unnecessary turnovers.

I don't want to say that twins are cocky, but they looked a little big too comfortable out there today, with all the other guards wanting to overtake them in the rankings. I'm sure they'll get it going by tomorrow, but today wasn't there day.

The dunk contest tonight WILL feature Wiggins and Gordon (YES!) as well as six others who will basically battle for third place. The three-point shooters have not been named, but I would think that Aaron Harrison will be on the list.


To clarify.. this guy is a team manager.. not a coach.
 
I say this without having any idea who these people are, but I think the Harrison twins will disappoint, ala that one Kentucky guy that was supposed to be BAWSE this year but wasn't.

I'm rarely wrong about these things.

Sigh.

This is one instance where I wish I wasn't dead on.

Hate to see young players "Hopson" away their talent.

I think they're just pacing themselves. Sometimes when you're THAT good, you don't go 100% all the time. But when the lights are on, you're ballin'.

Wouldn't surprised me if they suddenly turn it on Wednesday and go into 5th gear early just to prove this guy wrong.

Yeah they're like "What the **** this bitch emailing PKM, talking ****, we're going to ball hard tonight so we can show this bitch *** manager whats up"

Nah, all I'm saying is they're being smart about it. There's no need to replicate the Irving scenario when he was practicing for the Select team and got injured.

I think Hayward is the same way. I really think he plays at about 90% most of the game, except when he's going after a block shot/dunk that he really pushes himself. He's smart about avoiding injury.

Or they just didnt play well and it has no bearing on how talented they really are or how well they will do in their careers.
