Following potential 2014 draftees
- Thread starter Dr. Jones
- Start date
I think beating the 2008 draft will be very hard in terms of top tier talent and depth in hindsight...
Rose
Love
Westbrook
Hibbert
Lopez x2
Serge Ibaka
Dragic
Batum
Pekovic
DeAndre Jordan
The often injured, yet potentially very productive Eric Gordon + Gallinari
Ryan Anderson
Omer Asik
George Hill
JJ Hickson
Courtney Lee
Javale McGee
Beat that depth in starter material and star talent upfront...
I also think people totally overrate the 2003 class a lot due to LeBron being part of it...
2003:
LeBron
Wade
Melo
Bosh
nothing for a long time
David West
nothing again
Boris Diaw
3 productive years of Kaman, Josh Howard, Mo Williams and Kendrick Perkins
Kyle Korver
Kirk Hinrich
All the starter level talent
After that there's some quality reserves like Zaza Pachulia, Luke Ridnour, Barbosa, Delfino and Steve Blake...
That's basically 4 superstars, 1 fringestar and a couple of starters. Not a very good draft after 5 ...

How can you overrate the "Bron, Wade, Bosh, Mello" Quadruplets???

How can you underrate the quality and depth of 2008?
What let down the UK team was their FT shooting. They shoot 75 percent they are national champions.

if he and Hezonja are in the draft next year, and Jabari stays, maybe WCS and the Harrison's stay
the 2015 draft starts to look MUCH better

does anyone think Aaron Gordon ends up like a Kenyon Martin type defensive 4 or is he an oversized 3
just saw this comparison elsewhere and was wondering. they are similar height and weight but Kenyon was a senior, and has a 7'6" wingspan
at least Kenyons college numbers provide some hope that Gordon can get his FT shooting to somewhere respectable
he was 31% as a freshman(only 30 attempts), 47% as a sophomore, 56% as a jr and 68% as a senior

I think he'll be able to guard 2-4. I'm a bit unsure on 2s, but I've seen some evidence that he can.
His role on offense is a big mystery for me. You won't be able to run offense for him for a while. He can be a good garbage guy. But he absolutely needs a corner 3. He should be gunning to become Kawhi 2.0
don't believe everything you read. kmart's 7ft 6 wingspan is nothing but a rumor. never been recorded officially. and i really can't imagine kmart having longer wingspan than durant. just don't see it. javale mcgee has 7ft 6 winspan. kmart's wingpan is probably around 7ft 1 if i had to guess.
but you want wingspan? this dude. oh my. i want this kid. we gotta tank 1 more year!
