Following potential 2014 draftees

Gordon out of the Top 6?

You smoking crack?

Are you?

Who do you drop from top 6 I mentioned? Randle? Smart? Hard to make a case for Gordon over either of those two, but I suppose it could be done post tourney and combine if Gordon showed any real potential as NBA SF.

IMO it's even harder to make a case for Kyle Anderson over Gordon or Vonleh. Over McDermott, maybe.
 
Aaron Gordon doing the damn thing.

16 points - 8 rebounds - 4 blocks -3 assist - 1/1 from deep.

Elfrid Payton putting together a nice stat line too.

10 points - 4 rebounds - 3 steals - 2 blocks - 2 assist @ half-time.

You drop everyone who isn't Embiid, Parker, or Wiggins.

I might even consider Gordon over Parker if he puts up a strong enough Tourney.

I would say most of the board would take Gordon over Randle.

Bold.

I'm not sure I fully blame you though. Despite Gordon's less than stellar year, he still complemented his team, and the athleticism...

I don't blame you, but I don't rank him that high yet, at all.

He's an elite athlete, with a high BBIQ, high motor, versatility, great defender, and will be the youngest player in the draft (a lot of room to grow).

For our team, I get that, but if you were another team, why? It's not his fault the Harrison twins suck and James Young is wildly inconsistent making him get double teamed with no one he could really pass to with confidence. His defense is trash though.

It will be interesting to see what teams do.

PKM has been very vocal about his concerns over Randle for some time. His question marks aren't because of the team around him. He's simply not the athlete he appeared to be against wimpy high school kids. He plays bully ball which won't work nearly as well in the NBA; he turns the ball over a lot due to his loose handle; his jumper isn't as good as scouts initially thought... his stock hasn't dropped for no reason.
 
Gordon is in my top 6

Wiggins
Embiid
Parker
Exum
Randle
Gordon
Smart
Vonlieh
McDermott

I don't know enough about Anderson yet. He really wasn't being talked about. This is the first time I've seen him in the Lottery. I don't think it will matter because I think the Jazz are going to get a top 5 pick.
