Dennis Schröder is not attending the 2013 NBA Draft

I remember Hill's defense as not convincing(But I might be mistaken on it. Fell asleep too often on Pacers games this season). And I think Dennis has better court vision and passing skills.

Hill isn't really a PG... he's just not that quick...


Yeah you're right I think Dennis has better court vision and better passing skills too, already at this stage.
 
If i had to compare him to a PG id say gary payton, magic, stockton, nash, kidd type player...
 
Passing

I read that Dennis is very limited with his left hand when passing or shooting, that would be really bad for a point guard. Anyone else heard anything on this?

We saw SOLID evidence 4 days ago that Schroeder can indeed drive to his left, and finish with his left.
 
Dennis Schröder told yesterday that he wanted to attend the Draft but his family couldnt get a Visa in time :D.

Btw GM Morley from the Rockets was in Germany to see Dennis. It is likely that the Rockets trade Thomas Robinson for the Cavs Pick 19 to have a chance to get Schröder.
 
Btw I just got a newspaper article about Schröder, which explains his absence from the Draft today.
Family members didn't get visas, thus he decided to stay at home too and watch it on TV.
He also talks about taking his older sister, a brother and his best friend over to America.
He adds he isn't nervous about his future but thinks about it. He prefers to be drafted into a situation with good team chemistry and an opportunity to earn playing time from the start.
One of the 6 teams he worked out for told him they want him to stay one more year in Europe, but Dennis dislikes that plan and wants to come over asap. Other teams have mentioned in interviews that they have playing time for him.
Last part deals with his growing relationship to Nowitzki who offered him guidance while he enters the league. Nowitzki himself will be in New York(Probably Mavs war room)
Dennis said he maybe has to catch a plane on friday for a press conference. But he would prefer to wait a couple more days until the visas of his family members are granted.

Wow.. then why couldn't that family member just follow him the day after or the week after? What's the big deal?


Sounds a bit strange to me to miss the opportunity of a lifetime to be on that stage. It's not like a family member had just passed away or sick or something like that.


He's a strange dude, I'd have to admit this. I still love him though.

Do you know the name of that salon his family owns? If the Jazz draft him I'm going up there for a hair cut wearing a Schroeder jersey.

Maybe he doesn't enjoy the thought of sitting alone in Barclay's center or his hotel room, getting crowded by media prior and after the event as much as being surrounded by his family & friends, who are excited and anxious to get to know where he's drafted?
The article also mentioned that Nowitzki was at home in 1998.

Maybe he also knows he's getting traded July 1st in some cases, and doesn't want to be around wearing one cap tonight and a different one on Monday and be present on 2 press conferences?

OH so none of this family could come? Ok that makes it sound a bit better. Also the Nowitzki thing kinda makes it better too. The trade thing too.

I'm cool with this.
 
I'm invited them over for Beer n' Brats. Still waiting for my reply.

LOL.. actually if we did manage to draft him, you could probably go see his mom and stuff and get a haircut from her!!! LOL.. that would be cool!!!


Just the thought of having him in our team this time tomorrow is making me giddy!!
