Following potential 2014 draftees

I think something that the Jazz are lacking (besides a decent head coach and a superstar) is a real energy guy. Before I get everyone claiming that it is Rudy Gobert let me just say that I like his energy. I wish that he'd play more. I wish we had a wing/guard that was an energy guy.

I think finding an energy guy is easier than finding a star.

Well, you should have gone to college in Australia and maybe you could have been drafted top 10 in the NBA draft. Can't fault the guy for being smarter than the average person.

so Aaron Gordon shot 2-11 FT's last night hes now shooting 42% on the season... im really not a fan of his, he handles the ball too high and is a liability late in games

Hollis-Jefferson had a monster game in his first start of the season and totally saved the game with some clutch putbacks, if he had any sort of outside shot id be all for drafting him with the GS pick this year...

This is the reason I am not wanting Gordon in the draft. As bad as he is now, I don't know if there's much hope of him being better than 60 %. He's also only 27 % on 3 pointers. His defense and energy would be great, but he would kill the spacing on offense.

He'll drop in the draft.
 
Has anyone pegged as the #1 pick ever NOT declared for the draft in recent memory? How could Embiid be that stupid?

I'm the resident, "freak out about the tank" guy, but bro it's waaaay too early to be getting worried about guys possibly returning.

Right now they are in the middle of practicing, traveling, and playing games with their teammates who are now their friends. Of course they don't feel like just abandoning them right now.

Once the season is over and they have some time to think about what's best for their future is when they will really be able to make a decision.

Cause for concern, yes, but I'd still say it's very likely Embiid leaves after this year. Jabari wouldn't surprise me if he stays doe.

That's likely. But then again he's on one of the most successful teams.

Marcus Smart, Joakim Noah, Harrison Barnes?

I don't think that's the case. There's the Lakers and Celtics out there in a good position. And MIlwaukee and folks are going to suck several more years.
I think for example for Boston it isn't that important to get the best pick this season. They want Okafor next year. They are comfortable with whoever they can snag this season. They'll continue to ship out the vets and pair one with Rondo around the draft. Rondo will be the part that getts them a great asset if he continues to improve his play until the season ends.
 
Can't Curry's damn ankle just break off so they can tank for us?

How do you all think Harris will pan out in the NBA? Is his height a problem on either end of the floor?
 
In defense of Chemical Engineers.....

I'm a Chemical Engineer and I'd take you down!
