What's new

Following potential 2012 draftees

I don't think Terrence Jones will bust. I think he'll have some great games and some games where he disappears--like Lamar Odom, but with more consistent effort on D and on the boards.

His disappearing has more to do with getting the ball than desire. Jones has a TON more skill/upside than fanz give him credit for .. somehow, long ago, he became considered a bust and has been the least talked about 10-14 prospect on this board.
 
Next installment. Making up for 300+ pages of completely ignoring Terrence Jones.

I think that's mainly because we were looking more at wings than bigs.
 
Stats that I have readily available;

UK's all-time most (rank);
3rd - Points scored in a season by a freshman
3rd - Rebounds in a season by a freshman
3rd - Free throws in a season by a freshman
4th - Blocks in a season by a freshman
7th - Steals in a season by a freshman
20th - assists in a season by a freshman

Truth. I just know that many have been talking PJ3, Zeller, Henson, and others .. with nothing but hate for TJ. I'm cool with that, but he does exist, he's mocked at 11 for a reason, and he has as much SF capability as any of the other 'hopefuls.'

He looks like he could play the SF position as much as Josh Smith and Derrick Williams can. The question might be his shooting consistency and mid-range game. Otherwise, he does some of the things Millsap's been doing offensively.
 
Btw, Doron Lamb was 2nd best all-time 3pt shooting freshman, 2nd best all-time 3pt shooting sophomore .. #1 all-time CAREER 3pt shooting %.

Very true. If the Jazz took him over PJ3, I wouldn't hate it.
 
2013: Shabazz was just measured at 6'5.75 (height) 222.5 (weight) 6'11.25 (wingspan).

Wingspan for days. Ucla or ky? I think he will go to ucla and in two years their program will be hit hard with violations. The whole family is driving some amazing vehicles.
 
Tweeners like TJ scare me. I was never a fan and am still not a fan of DWill Timberwolves style. I was so happy that he was off the board when the Jazz were selecting at #3.

Would I be upset if the Jazz drafted TJ? No. Would I be overjoyed? No.
