Following potential 2015 draftees

I really like Booker. If you think about it, Calipari held him in higher regard than even Russell as Russell wasnt really recruited by Kentucky. That must tell you something!
 
Totally forgot OSU was playing today.... Russell appears to be having one of his worse games of the year thus far.
 
That Calipari just recruits on rankings?

Haha yeah, probably. By no means do i think Booker is better than Russell. I think Russell is the best player in this draft. I just am saying it at least tells you something about Bookers talent that he was regarded so highly.
 
Maybe my standards are low, but I just want a player who can make shots. Don't care what he looks like or if he's 6'8" or 6'4"...please, let's just draft a "making" guard.

What about shots that he could make, but can't get off because of long, fast help defenders of the NBA?
It's not as destructive as a missed shot, but it reduces his value unquestionably.

That has less to do with height than it does release point and shot quickness.
 
I'd take Booker, Winslow, Looney or even Turner over him... I think that pushes him to around #12 for me.

I'd take Booker first among those guys.

Hopefully we aren't in a position where we're choosing between guys like Turner and Winslow. Just get top 6 damn it.

Booker & Looney are guys that I think when it is all said and done could be top #5 in this class.


Guys with ceilings higher than their draft spots:


- Hezonja
- Booker
- Looney
- Pozingis
 
Oubre had a bounce-back game: 18 pts on 6/9 shooting, with 4/6 from 3-pt. Also had 6 rebs.

I think I like Oubre more than most people on here. It would be a high risk pick though. I could see him becoming really good, or turning into Wesley Johnson or something.

We will be in that kind of position. 9th 10th pick territory. Winslow will be a bust.
