Following potential 2015 draftees

Anyone else like Cliff Alexander? I wouldn't draft him where I think we will be in the lottery (top 10), but I think he is good enough for late lottery. If this dude developed some ball skills and developed into a legit PF, he could be nasty.

Watching him in HS I always thought he would be a total bad *** cbb and an average pro (not enough of either size or athleticism to be really good).

Thomas Robinson all over again

Hayward should sit down with him in the offseason IMO and really mentor him. I mean if you look at those 2, Exum has more of less the same tools as Hayward with the exception of an off the dribble jumper. They both pass very well, have decent handle and are very smart.

Lol. Please stop.

Right about his size but not his athleticism but let me guess you are one that thinks that just means how high one can jump right PKM and not other factors?

With the favors Gobert front court looking so nice I think we have to go with a SF/SG. I think Johnson's the dude. The easy comparisons are kwahi and butler, but he is better than both of them were at this point in their careers. I'd be stoked if we got him.

Better offensively than both but Leonard's defense has always been elite.
 
I really like the Jimmy Butler comparison for Stanley Johnson, actually. Maybe a mix between Jimmy Butler and Ron Artest (SJ is thicker than JB and may never put up 20 ppg).

An eventual wing rotation of Hayward, Johnson, Burks, and (hopefully) a lights out shooter could be very formidable.

1) I haven't been negative towards you lately. Recognize my niceness.

2) There's nothing to discuss. I like you nickkkkkky, but it was a silly comment.

Are you against Hayward working with exum in the offseason?

Why you hating on triple k's suggestion that Hayward take exum under his wing and mentor him in the off-season?

Just curious

Doubt Exum wants to go to Indy. He will probably split time between LA, SLC, and Santa Barbara

Hayward works out in Santa Barbara and SLC along with his time in Indy. I dont think they are all that similar of players but I think hayward working with any player and sharing knowledge and building rapport is beneficial.

From what I read in his blog, he spent most of his time working out in Indy at some gym. Then he spent time with Team USA and went back to Indy after being cut. He would make flights out to P3 so they could do test and stuff, and went back to Utah (I think he was one of the later arrivals) to do some early open gym stuff.
