What's new

Following potential 2012 draftees

So, last chance to ask if T. Jones can play sf at the next level.

Only in certain matchups. I think he's a stretch 4 that can be effective playing certain SF's. He's really matured the 2nd half of this year and regained my confidence of being lottery-worthy this year.
 
PKM,

Who is the better pro prospect? Darius Miller or D. Lamb? Why?

Good question. Lamb is a sharp-shooter (barely under 50% from 3 for his career), has a mid-range game, and very effective floater. Miller has very good size and strength for his athleticism and agility ... Miller also is a 40% (+) career 3pt shooter with a mid-range game, post moves, and floater.

I think Miller has more upside because he has more to offer in a big body .. I think their careers depend largely upon the situation they're drafted into.

I didn't expect to hear from you for like a week or something. Maybe I have the wrong image of you in my mind but I assumed that you would be drunk and hung over for like a week or something.
 
By the way PKM, congrats. I have always been a fan of the underdog so I have had a health dislike for national powers such as Kentucky, Kansas, Florida and the like. This year I found myself defending Kentucky and openly rooting for them. I don't know if I should thank you or if I should shun you for what you have done to me.
























Thanks, this season has been much more enjoyable to me because of the things that you have shared with this forum about the Wildcats and college basketball in general.

At the risk of sounding like a little girl .. this team, the individuals, are so special (whether they won or lost), so focused, so dedicated, have so much care for one another, that it wasn't a get drunk and not remember the night, kind of night. These guys, the coaches, and a few of us nobodys celebrated, sure, but it was much more of a soak it all in and let the last remaining hours together be one to be keenly remembered.

I hope to be celebrating one of the with the Jazz in the not too distant future.

Thanks for the class post and the congrats, orange jello. ;)
 
Is Davis the missing 3 that the Jazz need?

John Calipari told ESPN's "Mike & Mike" that Anthony Davis will be a 3 or 4 in the NBA. "He’s not a 5 in any way, shape or form."

Very interesting.

He's a 4. He may, but very unlikely, one day be able to play the 3 .. but his handles would have to improve x10000.

The fact that Coach Cal brought it up made me consider it a lot more. I agree with you statement about his handles though.
 
I know we have no shot at Davis, but I do believe he's a top big man in history (no hyperbole).

As much as I wanted to, I just couldn't hate this Kentucky team this year. Partly because of PKM, but mainly because I just liked the players. They weren't the typical douchey star players. I still hate Calipari though, he is a great coach, I just don't like him.

I liked half the UK players, hated the other half.

Liked Davis, MKG, and the white school boy.

Hated Teague, Jones, and Lamb.
 
So what are we looking at regarding Anthony Davis, if he can put on some muscle is he going to be a coordinated Dwight Howard? Or more of a KG type player? Or a force unknown, something we have never seen?

He's more KG than Dwight, imo.

Agree completely. Not saying I agree with this .. just Steve Kerr's opinion. He said Davis is better than KG 'right now' and his ceiling is no lower than NBA MVP. That's awfully lofty, but I'm excited to see what he's able to do in a couple years.
