What's new

Following 2016 potential draftees

Murray off the bench is a perfect place for him. High volume shooter... Mike Conley however is a starting point guard in the NBA.. Jaz zneed one of those a little more don't they?
 
Bentil and Ellenson in a fun OT matchup tonight. Bentil with 33 and Ellenson with 24 and 15 at the time of this post. Marquette's guards are stupid though - it's as if they are playing keep away from HE sometimes.

Ellenson 26 Pts, 16 rebounds. Bentil, 42 Pts, 6-13 from 3, and 12 boards. On a still gimpy ankle. Dunn has taken himself out of the NPOY race completely....
 
Burks haters (and there are many of ya's on this site) -- How many wings in this draft project to be better than Alec??
Franklin would say all of them.
 
Jaylen Brown is a better prospect, he's out of the Jazz draft range though.. He's also a worse shooter than Alec..

Then you have, according to DX, the 2 French prospects Luwawu and Cordinier, Buddy Hield who's a glorified Jodie Meeks thats only 20 something months younger than Alec. Furkan Korkmaz, the teenage sharpshooting 6'7" SG thats too skinny for any sort of decent minutes.

Denzel Valentine who's simply an overrated, older prospect thats going to prove to be a defensive liability. Caris LaVert who's injury prone and way too skinny to play SF, and Wayne Selden who's worse with the ball in his hands than Trey Lyles.

I'd go with Furkan. Best combo of skills and NBA athleticism. Skinny but really young, doesn't even turn 19 until after the draft.
 
disagree about Valentine... High Iq player, son of a coach...
His athetic ability will improve in NBA. Some college players just end up doing so much better in the pro since they don't have school work and social hours.
Plus Denzel is from East Lansing so his famiy is around the corner.. Once he starts eating healthier and all that. He been eating to much of m
Moomma cooking. That should change
 
What I'm saying is the SG will return to a position for ultra athletes in the coming years, players like Rodney Hood will need to rely on their length, skill and polish, even more, to make it happen.

The learning curve for a player like Valentine will be very high, he's old too. I'd still rather gamble on a lanky 6'7" SG like Patrick McCaw, who's also the son of a coach, before Denzel.

I can write a list of 20 outstanding swingmen propsects, really top notch athletes that are sure to influence the state of the NBA SG in a major way -- Starting with Jayson Tatum, Josh Jackson and Malik Monk

I am sorry but this is a myth just like Spread QBS are going take over the NFL...SMH, disappointed in you bruh. Counter athletic abilty with bball brains. I was taught basketba is 90 percent in your head... Funny cu I used to sky and dunk and rely on that but now that im older I am much smarter player then I was back then and stil put in work over younger people with legs and lungs. Valentine is a coaches son. Those type have very high bball iq.
 
You right bout a bunch of games. I did a 6 team teaser bet and here is my lines
Kentucky+1
Purdue + 2.5
Xavier +8
Providence 0
Notre Dame +2.5
Oregon - 2.5
 
I wouldn't consider Tatum a plus athlete either. Speaking of athletes I always here how Jabari Parker isn't and he flew in the air some last night. I know it is an a star game but he was getting up off the floor.. Tatum is a good athlete but I woudnt consider him a plus athlete. He has very high bball IQ. I spent some time in the Lou this year and peeped a few of his games with my cousin
 
Willis no chance on nba, come on


Murray is not very athletic at all either

Look at Warriors, Shooters is what is in high demand not just a pure athlete.. Some ofthose SGs you got listed like Tatum wi probally be seeing time at SF.. I think with the emphasis on shooting you going see the SG and SF interchangeable. One shooter on floor and one athlete that can be a defender like Iggy from the Warriors. People are going have to pay the Warriors style of ball if they want to beta them. That steph Curry sure isn't very athletic but man he has some handles.. Again no chance on Derek Willis in nba. You are better then this. Wiltjer a little chance but I doubt he is on a roster come opening night... Kyle has Willis by few inches nd is a much better shooter. Are you being a prisoner of the moment right now?lol
 
I am jumping aboard the Buddy Hield bandwagon. Just heard that this guy stayed up til 6AM after the Kansas loss dissecting his plays. This guy is a serious baller. If only....
 
It looked like Grayson Allen traveled on that gamewinner, his right foot landed before he released the shot..

Probably was compensation for the no-call prior to that. I like when refs pack their whistle on final possessions.
 
Devonte Graham is killing it early on, been posting how he's underrated here for years. This is a prime example of why. #75 in Dx's Sophomore rankings.

Kansas has way more talent is why. Buddy is all OU has.. I told yall weeks ago that this kid was gym rat ike no other.. I se enow peope are coming around
