What's new

Following potential 2014 draftees

lol

Parker is more of a PF that can play some SF... maybe equally as well. But I don't think he's any more SF than PF. He is waaay crafty around the rim.

He's definately an exciting player to watch and I doubt we'll find out which position he'll ultimately play until his 3rd year in the league.

That's one of the reasons I've been so high on him. He can fill in the rotation at both forward positions. He would absolutely dominate coming in behind Favors at PF. With Favors and Kanter both playing around the rim, Randle's outside game would be a great complement to either player. Or he could start at SF with Hayward at SG to give the Jazz their "big" lineup.

If the Jazz drafted Rande at say, #3, then Harrison would be a good fit with the GS pick. Maybe the Jazz would be able to buy another 1st or throw in their 2nd-rounder to move up for him.

Think you missed the quote..... pkm was talkin jabari, and your spout off about randle the animal.
 
i like when i see early mocks having parker in the 5 to7 range.

Is it bad i hope he struggles a little this year?

I think the lack of elite athleticism is weighing on their minds. Wiggins, Randle, Exum, Gordon, and Smart are all elite athletes or borderline ones. Parker is squarely just in the "good" category. Until there is anymore basketball played, all we have are the highlight tapes to watch, and they are naturally going to artificially inflate the elite guys stock.
 
Watched the Turkey-Crotia(81-52) game yesterday. Saric played almost the whole game. But he was even worse this time. He couldn't guard an old semi-injured Hedo in the first half. He is having hard time moving his feet on the defense. On the offensive side, Ersan and Aşık completely shut him down. He was effective against only footers with slow feet(Erden and Savas).

He finished the entire game without a single point but just a few easy rebounds and an assist. His outside shooting is god–awful.

Guess the 'roids actually help!
 
Tomic was good again btw. I actually think he could be a top bench big man for any team in the NBA. But I'm 100% sure he will prefer to be one of the good centers of the European basketball with better contracts rather than being a bench big in the NBA.

Lol, no roids can help his lazy *** after this age. He is trying his best to make a last contract in the NBA. Magic will buyout last year of his contract before the season camp. He will tear his *** to show off in the Eurobasket13, there are some teams in the NBA following him, like Rockets, Celtics, Lakers and Heat for an extra veteran presence.
