Boy.. Porter looks like an Odom type player... devastating mismatch machine when motivated.
Following potential 2013 draftees
- Thread starter Dr. Jones
- Start date
It was a complement. Odom flamed us for nearly 1/2 a decade just because he's so long and can shoot that 3's consistently playing with the Lakers.

Ronnie Brewer's career stats at Arkansas:
15.7 PPG, 5 RPG, 3.3 APG, 2.4 SPG, 46.2 FG% and 34% from three.
Otto Porter's career stats at Georgetown:
12.7 PPG, 7.2 RPG, 1.9 APG, 1.5 SPG, 51 FG% and 37% from three.
Porter is the better rebounder and slighty better shooter, Brewer is the better defender and scorer/passer.
Why look at career stats? The only thing that really matters for college players is their last year. Porter was a different player last year and had a different role on the GT. Obviously he has improved a tremendous amount and so far there is no reason to believe that it is a fluke.
Also, if you watched any games at all, you could tell their games are 100% different.

He kind of reminds me of a younger Josh Howard.

Both really weak drafts and both players right around the exact same area.
Yes.

I think this draft will be better than people are thinking.
I don't see how the comparison is really relevant anyways. All the drafts are different.

I am just doing it to annoy Cy, Porter is no Brewer the only knock on Porter is as I have mentioned is his release.
I think it may be even worse. There will be a few studs emerge but top 20 will produce more non-producers than any draft in a decade.

Jazz will get a Kentucky player and a point guard in this years draft. Book it.
Well the odds are decent. We have three players in that range.

To book something, you have to put it in the Bold Predictions thread.
I'm speaking with an asst tomorrow that is going to fill me in on the Jazz visit. They evaluated 3 players and gave some candid feedback to this asst. I texted him for details and he left me a message while I was in air.
Calling me tomorrow at noon (10mtn).

Anthony Davis is pretty good, he's just so inconsistent which I think is due to injuries. Every week in my fantasy league I'm always holding my breath hoping he can play... But when he's healthy, he's very solid - no Larry Sanders, but solid.
Keep in mind two things;
1) he's very young .. very
2) the pelicans are being ultra cautious with him. Hes sitting when he could be playing (according to him).
