Following potential 2012 draftees
- Thread starter Dr. Jones
- Start date
Perry Jones might be fools gold. He looks like the prototypical NBA player. He's got the physical skills. But he just doesn't impact the game much. There's definitely a risk there based on his effort and IQ.
always been the knock/concern on him.

Some GM's will still gamble on him over Barnes and K-G, I doubt KOC would be one of them.
I agree. That's what makes K-G so special. He's constantly looking for ways to make himself and his team better.
Hey Cy: Don't know if you noticed, but nbadraft.net has QMiller slid to 2013 draft. They have projected #10 .. behind #9 Rodney Hood. Cool, huh? I'll be SHOCKED if Miller stays in school more than one year though .. not because he couldn't use the development, he's just not ever shown the go-the-extra-mile approach to bb .. more of a shortest route possible guy.

Will be surprised if he doesn't come out this year as he is still nearly a guaranteed top 10 pick. I guess staying an extra year would probably make him the #1 option on the team and potentially boost his stock for the next years draft. NBADRAFT.net usually blows, but I will give them props on picking up on Hood.
I was at UK's practice yesterday and have another K-G story (CY, you may want to read this, as it relates to Beckham).
Calipari was on a few of the guys extremely hard. One, in particular, didn't take it well (MissSt transfer, Twany Beckham). He would argue with the coach, he would pout, do justabout anything but get it together. After about the 4th or 5th incident, K-G had had enough, grabbed him by his jersey, said, "we ain't here to be coached by your ***, we're here because of that many right there. Now shut the **** up and play ball or take your *** home." That ended it.

i agree even if Drummond doesnt develop a post game hell be a real good player off his size and athletic ability alone..I like Davis but hes anorexic and has no offensive game at all..
I could see him being another Camby which isn't a bad thing but not a guy you pick #1
Have not seen him play, but Chad Ford has him ranked as the 83rd best prospect. Doubt we will seem him in the draft. You can probably guess what the big knock on him is, but having not seen him cant argue.
Quincy Miller is a guy who could still come out and do well in workouts if he prepares well for the draft.
Camby is a decent comparison at this stage. The KG (Kevin Garnett) talk has to simmer down.
My concern with him is that after surgery hes not explosive at all and his jumper isn't yet as good as advertised..
Whatever, hater, K-G was sick of Beckhams constant disruption of practice. It wasn't an alpha thing, it was a "dude, STFU."
