He needs to work on his body, like lower-body and core strength, but I see a lot of potential there. He could be a stretch big.

You think he's as soft as the Baylor guys--PJ3 and Qunicy Miller?

Pretty much. Almost. No mean streak at all. He's mean like Favors.

I still really like Hezonja and think he's more gifted than Hayward.

How's his jumper coming along?

His jumper is fine. I believe he will have no problem regarding is shooting. He might only have consistency issues for a while on the higher levels he is currently playing in and in the future.

More gifted than Hayward? I don't know, it's arguable. Athleticism wise, definitely. Game wise, they are too different players to compare but I'd take Hayward without thinking much. Hayward is just much more versatile player and that makes him very valuable in my opinion. Yes, Hezonja has a very exciting game, he is like, (regarding his upside) a more explosive version of Ginobili but his passing game hasn't shown the improvement I hoped, his help defense is still bad and I have big question marks about his character. Good thing, he has a Kobe-like work ethic. But the bad thing, he has the worst Diva attributes as well. It will make him either a star in the future or a disappointing non-fulfilled potential.

If you'd say Saric, however, him being a ridiculously talented big man, plus surprisingly maturing very well, I'd go with Saric.

Isn't Hezonja known as a ball hog in Europe?

More like disoriented. Yes, he was also a ball hog in the teams that have been made around him in the past, but he was always way above his competition level not to be. Still, I think his team play is a serious issue at this point. Probably his biggest weakness. But there is just no way currently for him to be a ball hog in his current level, he's being tamed hard these days in Euroleague and the ACB, I hope it will help him about it.

Yep, you combine every negative stereotype about both Serbians and Spaniards and that's Hezonja. He's still seeing the floor rarely in Barcelona. If his role doesn't expand this year it would be a major gamble to select him in the lottery IMO because you can see why he's on the bench in the limited time he getts.

But then again someone is going to be happy to select him in the late teens, leave him 3 years over there to establish a real market value like Mirotic and end up being a potential steal. Do the Sixers have multiple draft picks projected in the teens?
 
I know y'all don't care about UNLV but we have two 1st rounders next year on the roster who are starting to rise up the boards. Chris woods and rashad vaughn. I'm telling you, both are top 15 picks and Chris woods is going to start getting major buzz very quickly. Stretch four with range who boards, blocks shots and plays excellent d. I think Chris woods will move into the top 7 and would be an excellent partner next to favors.

Ha thanks man. I love you too. Vaughn has had two nearly 30 point games and has hit some clutch shots. I think he put it all together last night as he has had some struggles shooting the ball early.
 
He is going to be a good pro. Has goos size. Just don't speak much about him here as I am not sure he is a fit with the jazz....though that 3 point range is starting to look intriguing.
 
Yay it's early college games tonight. But stream quality suxx as usual. So I guess I'll only swap to Kansas while the Spurs game is interrupted.
