Following potential 2014 draftees

what do you guys think of Artem Klimenko @35? ive read he had good workouts for the Suns.

on various scouting reports ive read, 'slow' but DX has him as 'extremely mobile for his size'

obviously he needs to hit the weightroom, but at 20 years old, 7'1" with a 9'4" standing reach theres plenty of intrigue.

I could be wrong but i dont think hes a Stash guy, hes already bought out of his contract and will probably see plenty of D-League action next year

I thought he was citing Quantum Field Theory.

No doubt Hack will bump my quote after this season when Parker wins ROY and Vonleh is coming off the bench for team X and playing 15-20 mins. That's why I put the emphasis on "long-term."

Smart move

lol

No doubt.. I will be bumping all this crazy talk about Vonleh over Jabari. I think we are talking long-term too.

Just means Exum would be in the mix at #5. Last interview I heard from Lindsey (yesterday on ESPN), the reporter made the comment the draft had a clear drop at 4 picks. Lindsey corrected him and said three. I don't think Exum is viewed as highly by GM's as what the media has hyped.

One can only hope Lindsey is smart enough to see through smoke and will avoid **** like plaque.

Looks like taller, less physical Kanter to me. Plays below the rim for his size. Better passer than Kanter was at that stage. Hard to judge on his defense from this clip.

We could only hope to draft that good. Chris Manix of CNNSI has us taking Exum and Orlando taking Smart. That would be very interesting pick. I would be down with that.

Smart being called back a second time was definitely a sign he was in play for them.

I like Jokic over Klimenko. Better passer, shooter, only 1" less wingspan and reach.
 
Lavine did 46" for LA, that's insane.

@PG_AB
What do you think of Micic? Seems like he could be a decent complement to Burke as a big PG.

I like Micic; last summer i mentioned id take him with the GSW pick. Players have moved ahead of him since then but he seems like a good fit as a backup. Theres an injury history thats probably minor, but worth mentioning.

He showed very well vs Team USA in the U19 tournament last year, vs mostly Elfrid Payton and Marcus Smart. Vasa scored 12 points on 4 FGA's and had 10 assists.

Hes probably the best passer in the draft, he proved to be streaky 3pt shooter and his athleticism is meh, but in the 2nd round hes a pretty good gamble.

Im not sure hes leaps and bounds better than Neto, who appears to be a bit more shifty, Micic is tough though and strong with the ball, hes really battle-tested for a 20 y/o.

at the end of the day id take Spencer Dinwiddie, but its really close, ive got no complaints if hes the pick at 35
