Following potential 2014 draftees

there where lots of mocks with harrison at 23 with the jazz pick.

but after yet another game winner I see his stock rising exponentially

That it is.

He has just had the most clutch run in NCAA tournament history (no hyperbole). Three game-winning shots IN A ROW.

But that alone doesn't earn one a lottery spot... nor is he deserving of one.

Now the important questions:
-Would you adopt Aaron Harrison?
-Would you be angry if he accidentally set your house on fire?

obviously UK struggled all season long. but the team is clicking at a right time. now you see the true potential of this team. without the harrison twins they don't beat wichita st. without them they lose to ville. without them they don't beat michigan.

if you are judging them by what they've done in the season then you are not doing it right. put your GM hat on for godsake.

This is just retarded. If Kentucky didn't have the twins, chances are they'd have someone better seeing as Kentucky pretty much has the pick of just about anyone they want. Plus there are is a lot a good talent on this team. To think that no one else on this team would've steped up is rediculus.

Hahahahahahahahaha.

You don't want a player because Cy likes him? Could you act more like a teenage girl?

Trevor Ariza. One of the leagues best wing defenders and best 3pt shooters.

Why are you using a bad rookie year for a guy I liked in a weak draft against me? How can you be so ignorant to judge a player who has barely been given ample opportunity to prove his worth? If he was on the Jazz and getting stiffed for minutes, everyone would say "Oh give him time, the coaching staff just hates rookies!", but you are just trying to be an *** and find anything about my past predictions to disprove anything I say, even when what I'm saying makes sense.

you obviously doesn't know what 'ceiling' means.


cam newton's ceiling > tom brady's ceiling

doesn't mean cam will ever reach brady's level.

No, Cam Newton's ceiling isn't higher than Brady's. His physical talents might be higher, but there are mental qualities that apply to sports that can't be readily quantified.
 
I was just reading bill simmons mailbag and a reader asked him "if the celtics draft 4-6, who would you not want the celtics to draft?"
He didnt really answer the question but gave his list as
wiggins
Parker
Embiid
Gordon
Randle
Exum

He went on to talk about how much he likes gordon and how the more he saw of gordon, the more he liked him.

Compared him to shawm marion with a little bit of griffin and kirilenko mixed in.

Nothing that hasnt been said already but i really like his basketball mind so that makes me like gordon even more

Bill Simmons is my spirit animal when it comes to sports opinions.
 
Pretty much everyone who actually watches Aaron Gordon play loves him. You find out just how talented he is from mental and physical aspects. His shot even worries you less because you see that it isn't broken.

Marion 2.0 with Griffin and AK dashes is a great description of how special Gordon could be. I would throw in a dash of Iggy.

3 parts Marion
1 part Griffin
1 part AK
1 part Iggy
 
If you had to pick between only these two guys with the Warrior's pick, who would you take?

Frank Kaminksy or Aaron Harrison?

Could Kaminsky be the next Ryan Anderson?

^^^^^insanity

believe it or not, i predicted christian ponder to be in the top 15 in the FF. that was my last WTF mock. and in the FF they didn't use such a kind word like 'insanity'. i also said johnny football will be a top 10 pick since last year. i was crucified. now, most likely he will be picked top 10. just last year, virtually nobody had him in the 1st round. many had him at 3rd round actually.

if aaron harrison puts up great numbers at the predrat(i fully expect him to do so), he may shock a lot of you on the draft day. but if he doesn't, i can see him stay where he is at 15-20 range. and this won't be the first time you'll see a meteoric rise in the draft. happens all the time. i'm still shocked cavs picked bennett last year. still shocked by jordan picking morrison. remember tskitishvili? i was like who? got kiki fired.

i won't be surprised by anything. is picking aaron harrison that big of a reach? dude is a freshman and he has shown ability to play. yes he is flawed. but so is aaron gordon, vonleh, smart, and many others. aa harrison at #7-#9 is my surprising pick of the year. i won't be so predictable.

I'd take Kaminsky. Riskier pick, but he could be a good scoring big off the bench.

kaminsky is listed at 7ft. did you see how he towered over randle and even dakari johnson? he is poorman's pau gasol with little bit of thinner chris kaman in him.

if he is mentally strong than he should shoot better FTs. it's all mental if you think his shot isn't broken. he is definitely thinking about it too much. i'll never understand bad FT shooting non centers. usually dudes with huge hands have trouble with FTs. but that's not the case for gordon. FT is not a rocket science. it really is a free throw.

i still have gordon at #5. but FT really is a concern. it's not even that he is streaky FT shooter. he is just a bad bad FT shooter.
