What's new

Following potential 2014 draftees

Kevin Durant lists at 240 lbs. Carmello used to list at 240 lbs. too. Now he's at 235 lbs.

Pretty sure the NBA weighs players before the season starts, so whatever weight they start at, you can probably subtract at least 5 lbs because of weight loss that occurs during the season.

CORY JOSEPH !!!!!!!!!

did anyone else just see him take Serge Ibaka's soul on live TV

id consider trading #23 for him, hes a big and athetic PG, 3 years of Pop's tuetelage, hes only 22 and has the longest hands on the Spurs, not Kawhi Lenoard
 
I think Vonleh is bustproof. He'll space the floor just fine from either forward spot. Here's some of that confident sweet stroke in an open gym session with other college players. I actually think Vonleh is a bit underrated and under the radar because he played out of position at Indiana, and their guards didn't do a good job of getting him the ball in rhythm.

I don't understand how someone who is supposed to be a gym-rat doesn't have the drive.
 
I think Vonleh is the kind of shooter who could come off of screens. I don't see how he's not at least as good as Rashard Lewis was.

It's Gordon who's probably going to shoot 24% in summer league and make people go to Target to buy a panic button.

I predict Gordon is a standout in Summer League. Book it.
 
what do you make of the narrative that Noah was a clutch high school player? ive seen that bantied about, its in his nbadarft.net profile

im certain hit at least a few gamewinners, some of them 3's

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72gyZr6PlC4 at 1:53 of this video you will see him hit a game winner vs Nerlens Noel
 
^ I don't make much of that. Kind of trumped by a ho hum college season.
It's obvious his upside. It's his fire that's in question.. a la Favors.
 
Another guy I'd compare Noah Vonleh to, and this would be a floor, I think--Donyell Marshall. He had a long career, averaging 15/10 in his better years, with a 40%+ 3-pt. percentage.
