Wasn't he playing PF for them though?

He played PF when Harkless, another promising SF prospect was on the floor too.
BUt they'd part obv with both of them in case they can get Wiggins. At #2 I'd expect Randle and let Harkless/Harris battle for the SF position. add another PG via free agency or trade assets to Boston for Rondo(Harkless + Nicholson + Afflalo/Harrington(50% guaranteed)/Nelson(not fully guaranteed)/trade exception[that's the make the numbers work part] + 1strounder[top10 protected]) and their lineup is:

PG Rondo
SG Oladipo
SF Harris
PF Randle
C Vucevic

That looks scary....

He may join an NCAA team in December....
And he's same age as the selection. Just wanted to get to the attention, that the selection is flawed.

What?

You can't just join a team. He has to be enrolled in classes and whatnot by a certain date.

Ask PKM. Cal's trying to get him to Kentucky to play starting in December after he finishes school in Australia...

If PKM confirms I guess I will believe it, but him going to UK makes no sense. I would imagine the players who committed to UK wouldn't really like it, especially Andrew Harrison because that is his direct competition to being the top PG selection in the draft.

You can even use the search function, as it was discussed here during the U19 worlds...And Exum projects to be SG.

1,000 pages? You do know that the last one only reached short of 1,200 pages and that was after the draft too?

Yeah but this is a loaded draft and we're guaranteed a top ten pick. Plus half the lottery is playing for UK, and you all know where I'm going with this.

1000 pages by Christmas, book it.
 
Yes.. Exum cam enroll in a college in December. Calipari was pushing for him but backed off because, a) worried about chemistry issues bringing him in late, and b) we already have Aaron Harrison and James Young.. just too hard to find PT.

Exum is NOT a PG. A lot of people are saying this, but no one is recruiting him, nor projecting him, as such.
 
He's far from an obvious bust. I actually think he'll be very good. We are discussing most likely to bust... and to that I agree it is he.
 
I got up this morning and immediately started packing the truck for a day out in the strip... I realized I never had breakfast just after lunch time.
I still haven't eaten a thing.. but now I'm worried it will kill my buzz I'm nurturing.

Any advice?

Exum will be Brandon Roy with knees...He's got some neat ball handling skills, and he's got very good court vision for the shooting guard position. He'll Have the ball a lot of times and initiate the offense.
The reason the comparison isn't visible at this point is simple: Exum has knees. Brandon Roy came into the league playing an old man's 30something year old's game. He had the midrange game already instead of the drive to the basket attack mode. But the way both approach offense, looking for good angles and teammates as soon as the help comes over while maintaining to keep the ball alive is similar. Exum will look more like a 5th year player in his sophomore season. Just the way he plays. Huge asset on your team if you have a shaky PG, whom you only trust to dribble the ball up the court and then have him wait in corner for an open 3.
The reason why I don't project him to play PG is simple...He can defend any SG easily, but will struggle against certain type of hyperquick and athletic PGs. So SG is not the only fit, but the better fit.
 
what are your all thoughts on laquinton Ross?

6-7 to 6-8 sg/sf who can drain 3s with ease.

if Harris and Harrison are gone is he a viable option with the gsw pick

right now with the dx mock this is my dream draft

Jabari Parker
Aaron Harrison
Doug McDermott

line up 2014-2015

Burke, Neto, Clark
Hayward, Harrison, burks
Parker, rush
favors, McDermott
kanter, Gobert

burks would probably be trade bate then
