Following potential 2014 draftees

If by 'people' you mean hotttnikkk.. 'they' are saying "really play the 3."

Most, though, think he's a PF with a full suite of SF skills but better suited for PF.

Appreciate the elucidation.

No sweat. It's what we illuminati do.

Tyler Haws vs. Chasson Randle tonight on ESPN2. Both players are potential 2nd round picks and could fill a role on our team. We'll just have to ask Jabari which one he'd rather play along side.

The White Rip Hamilton is going to be a top 10 scorer this year.

On his team?

Here's a thought.

Say we DO get Wiggins in the draft. How much would that increase the chances of good free agents coming to Utah?

Wouldn't happen right away. If he ends up playing to the same level as the hype, then yes. I think it would help us

**** you, Dala. Way to always ride the coattails of the majority and mediocrity.

I'm rooting hard for Kentucky this year. I don't want Randle or Andrew thinking they have unfinished business or anything.

btw, Randle's line thus far.....

45 points, 29 rebounds, 55 minutes

is that all

Ugh, does he always fake and come back the other side? Why can't he explode over the undersized, out of position defender?

He shoots very low, he needs to learn to get the ball up.

On his team?

He was 7th in the country last year, so it's not exactly a bold prediction.

Was that high school?

Good man.

A lot of you are concerned about shooting, and rightfully so.

If we add Parker to this team, or Wiggins do we have enough shooters?

I'm assuming it would be Burke, Hayward, Wiggins/Parker, Kanter, Favors. Would teams pack the paint, and succeed?

Predictions for Tuesday's games;

UK - MichSt
Sparty uglies things up and makes it a grind it out game.
UK - 67
MSU - 73

KU - Duke
KU - 71
Duke - 77

Help me out here. What makes Wiggins the #1? Being able to jump higher? I see zero advantages for Wiggins after that.

Smaller than Parker and Randle. Parker better at posting up, at worst they are equal on shooting, but right now I'd say Parker is better. Parker seems more versatile. Handles the ball about equal, Parker seems like a much better teammate.

Randle is way more of a mismatch, handles the ball very well for a big guy, better defense, about equal on shooting, #hunger.

Now all the scouts can't be wrong, so what am I missing? Why is Wiggins the consensus #1? What does he have that the others don't?

Wiggins vertical definately plays a part (because it IS in fact a huge vertical), but he also has great size and length, good speed, decent jump shot, good handles, amazing spin move in the lane, and the POTENTIAL to be a great defender.

Also, and i might be wrong, I think he is younger than parker?

Wiggins going to KU was a mistake and it'll stunt his growth.

 

[cowhide]

In the game highlights, it seemed as though Randle wasn't that explosive and seemed to have a hard time finishing.

@kkk

Watch for the vids from last nights game. Randle (22/14) drove past his defender got right past the free throw line, then dished to the open perimeter shooter (twice) and hit a 3 of his own.. in 3 consecutive plays.

Thanks.

I believe Randle CAN and WILL play the SF position in the NBA.
