2011 draft.....

https://aol.sportingnews.com/nba/story/2011-06-01/derrick-williams-insists-i-am-a-small-forward


Reading this has me thinking williams secretly hopes he falls to the jazz. I have nt heard him even talk about the third pick as he says he is top two at worst in other interviews. Here he mentions top 3 multiple times. Not that it matters really.

I had to laugh when I read this line:

Williams is athletic, he is nearly 6-9, he has a 7-1 wingspan and, realistically, it’s a lot tougher to find a power forward than a small forward. It’s hard not to look at him and see power forward.

Its harder to find a pf than a sf? For who? Certainly not the Jazz. The jazz have no trouble loading thier roster with 3 or 4 pfs and have been searching for small forwards since Kelly Tripuka.

Couldn't have put it better myself.

Minus the tattoos, of course.
 
Two comments from fords chat yesterday. So when will we get over this kanter love fest and realize knight is the pick? Dont be stupid and say fords an idiot, because that would make you neandrathal like in comparison regarding prospects.

The last comment on Kanter by Ford about the talent seems to indicate he could be a worthy gamble. Also anybody who claims they absolutely know that Knight will be better than Kanter is full of it. Personally I do read Ford's stuff more than anybody else's draft stuff.
 
Ford gets many opinions from gms and real scouts. He does not just make **** up. Local guys are usually biased and simply retarded and in kentucky being retarded has crap load of other meanings.

Well now I'm from Kentucky AND Utah ... doubly screwed.
 
Does PKM stand for Petting Kanter's Muscles?

I'm well accustomed to message boards, so this dumb stuff doesn't bother me. I just think it's hilarious that people (some) want information, but when you provide it your either a homer (if it's positive) or you have some agenda (if it's negative). It would be much easier to NOT share. I was asked, I gave my opinion along with my views that brought me to the conclusion, end of story .. or so it should be anyway.

See you can look at this in different ways, he says Knight could be a better pro than Irving if it all comes together. There's no guarantee that happens. Obviously Knight is still a good player, but who knows how good he will be.

In regards to Kanter, Ford says that he has the physical tools and talent, and has a good attitude and work ethic. I find nothing wrong with that. All he's saying is that he's still unknown, and that anybody who tells you that they know he's going to be a star or a bust is full of ****. Weren't you somebody saying that he was going to a bust? So since you said we aren't allowed to say that Ford is an idiot, by that logic, you are full of **** good sir.

/ I like Kanter and Knight and would be happy with either of them.
