Following potential 2012 draftees

Lamb's dunk at 1:22 was amazing, combined with that three point shot I think he can go top 5.

We'll have to see him play a few more times before top 5 becomes a realistic possibility, but I have to admit, that game got me really excited about him.

I'm still not convinced about Barnes. He looks like a complementary player like Luol Deng or Steve Smith with some defense. He doesn't put the ball on the floor and create his own offense very often. I think there are several players who could pass him in the draft, potentially Beal and Miller.

He's a great player and will continue to get better, but this is what concerns me about him most.

I'd go as far to say that there are half a dozen players who could potentially pass Barnes. Realistically, I don't see him falling out of the top 5 though.

Yep. I agree with all of that. In fact, I just don't see him falling past three or four .. but he'll make some teams nervous in doing so.
 
To be honest barnes is just what the jazz offense needs. I think his lack luster play could push him down. Team will worry about take the sure pick that is under whelming vs the pick that has the potential to be dominate. This year will be interesting.

I would have no problem, at all, taking Barnes at 3 .. much less at a lower pick.
 
I forgot to post the highlights from the Morehouse game. If anyone's interested;

Teague #25
Kidd-Gilchrist #14
Davis #23
Jones #3
Lamb #20
Wiltjer #33

A couple of nice passes by Teague, drives by Jones, oops by Davis, and Gillie just doin' at all.

Some UNC guys having a good game (against UNC-Asheville, but still ..).

With 6:00 remaining in the game;

Zeller - 27pts, 8rbs
Henson - 16pts, 11rbs
Barnes - 16pts, 7rbs, 5to's
Marshall - 5pts, 12asts, 1to
 
I watched some of the Duke/Presbyterian game and Rivers looked nasty. He can get in the lane at will and his handle is ridiculous.

I'm higher than him than most. He's a selfish ****** ****** but if he ever learns to a be a great teammate, he'll be very special for a long time. I'd take him anywhere after around 4 or 5.
 
The game I watched he had a very good overall game and didn't look selfish at all. He took one 3 point shot that was too far out, but other than that he seemed great. I think the fact he went to go play at Duke shows he is interested in learning to play within a team.

... or he's gay.
 
Here's my priority list of current college players for the Jazz. I'm legendary for always being right so I'd write this down If I were you.

1. Brad Beal - SG, Fr. - Florida
2. Harrison Barnes - SF, So. - UNC
3. Terrence Jones - SF, So. - UK
4. Meyers Leonard - C, So. - Illini
5. Point Guard TBD
 
Quincy Miller is putting up stats thus far in his first two games. Hasn't had anything televised yet though.

I love Brad Beal, but he (like everyone else) still has to prove himself against more elite competition. Think you have Leonard way high, but I assume that's your darkhorse.

Just watching Quincy's intangibles. Specifically looking for willingness to pass the ball, work ethic, and being a good teammate. He definitely has all the bb skill necessary.
 
I watched most of the UNC game today. I have two main questions from thodays game. #1 How is Marshalls outside shooting? #2 How will Zeller fare against a team that can match his size? Today was too easy for him.

He had 6 assists didn't he? That was impressive.
 
Just saw that Marshall had 15 assists tonight. For those of you who watched the game, was that because he could just dump it to the bigs and have them overpower the opponent? Was everyone's shots just falling? How did he accumulate all those assists?

Yea, the bigs got nearly any shot that they wanted. Marshall did set them up nicely but they had it easy today.
