What's new

Following potential 2012 draftees

It will be interesting to see who comes out and who stays. Will push players up or down. Whites shooting worries me. Especially the ft shooting.

Name one player that doesn't have a weak spot in their skill set. Is there anyone who is strong at or at least average at everything?
 
Wow after PKM mentioned white I looked at all the video's and read a little about him. I would love to have a pf that can play down in the paint and be a playmaker. Question is will he move into the lotto rang or stay later in the first. Think of how effective our offense could be if we added him and Marshall to go along with Hayward Millsap and Burks, this team would be next to impossible to guard.

I would love to trade Al to someone like Dallas for their pick plus a shooter, and take white with that pick. With that said, it does worry me that he is as bad as he is at the foul line. Does anyone know how his form at the foul line is? Does it look like he can improve, or will he always struggle at the line?
 
I am not worried about his FT shooting right now. I get the feeling that it will improve slowly. No basis for that statement besides a gut feeling.

I'd be surprised if he is undrafted past 20. It will on hinge on his interviews about his mental state. Supposedly he has a on/off fear of flying. I watched a couple of his interviews on youtube and he sounds like a really smart, self aware guy. I'm sure he will ace interviews during the combine.

Also be aware this guy didn't play competitive basketball for 2 whole years and put up stats in his freshman season. That is more time off than Kanter. His natural feel for the game is insane. I wouldn't even be surprised if he barely even played basketball over those two years, because it sounded like those two years where more dedicated to stabilizing his life.
 
Sweet 16 games tonight. We get to see which players step-up on the big stage, when it's one and OUT!

Syracuse - Dion Waiters (SG) vs. Wisconsin - Jordan Taylor (PG)

Louisville vs. MSU - Draymond Green

Cincinnati - Kevin Jones vs. OSU - Sullinger

Florida - Beal/Young vs. Marquette - Crowder

Thanks for the heads up.
 
Comparisons to Barkley, Wade, and Lebron, and yet it took us almost 300 pages to mention him?

I hope no one took my statements as him being as good as those guys .. just has resemblances within his game. As for why he hadn't been mentioned, he had never said he would declare early .. never even hinted.
 
I'd love to snag Beal. He does so many things well and although I'm not convinced he could really be a star, there's no way a player with that many skills busts.
 
Does anyone know anything about the center from Louisville (Nix). He was a monster on the defensive end. I think he had 7 or 8 blocks against MSU. Is he a Nba prospect?
