Following potential 2014 draftees

The PJ Hairston stuff is only getting worse. Not only did he get pulled over (drugs and gun) but the rented SUV was rented by an agent (Blackstone).
Blackstone is the same guy connected to the Ben McLemore stuff.

There needs to be a way to stop guys like that. He can do it with no repercussions while the kid can lose eligibility and the university can have wins vacated, etc..

people like that agent should be publicly hanged, imo

because they take advantage of not people who are looking for hope, like one of those Psychics, Mediums, Faithhealers, whatever nonsense

but these agents take advantage of people who are the hope, for their buddies and parents and whatever

and its about $$$, which is sick, these kids arent NBA players, their PROSPECTS.. if they cant make money but these ****heads can, thats a broken system, and its certainly not fair to the players

All of that. There are some things being worked on to correct the issue.. but it's problematic because there can be so many layers of accountability. Agents can't talk to kids.. fine. Then an agents friend can talk to the kid.. and so on.

Lol.. don't know much about this, but can't the agents be dis-credited somehow? de-registered? dis-barred?
 
Poythress working tirelessly on his handles. IF (<----if) he gets confident with his dribble and keeps his 40% 3pt shooting.. he'll make his way back to the late teens.

Poythress vs. Duke last year.

Follow me a sec. Kyle Wiltjer is leaving UK. I hate that. Great kid, fantastic offensive player.. VERY good. I don't blame him at all for leaving though.. he deserves more minutes than he'll clock this year (probably 10 mpg.. behind mainly freshmen).

Here's the thing.. when Kyle very classily came to Cal to inform him of his intentions (looking like Gonzaga).. he told Cal he was BLOWN AWAY at how much Poythress had progressed in the off season. he told Cal he's not afraid of competition.. but being a realist doesn't see getting much time behind Julius Randle, Poythress, Marcus Lee... but he was specifically talking about what a huge difference in Poythress.

Now this could obvioulsy be the annual off season chatter.. but it got my attention to watch for this transformation.... especially of we don't nab a SF in this draft.

Poythress vs GRIII would be a fun comparison, battle.
