Following potential 2015 draftees

Devin Booker (that I have been comparing to Klay Thompson) is now 15 of his last 17 from 3. 50% on the year.

If we fall out of top 10 pick... or if we get a 10-20 pick via some trade, I want us to draft him.

I'm one of Devin's biggest admirers. Great shooter. Today he had a tough time fighting through screens and he got turned around a few times on defense, but I don't think we've seen what he can really do on offense. He seems to be relegated to catch and shoot guy for now. Wish Cal would let him handle and create a bit more (though not at the expense of winning).

It's a criticism I have of Cal's coaching overall right now. We have HUGE guards in the Harrison's and Booker. We should be driving with power into the lane and forcing more fouls. These guys can muscle through contact and Cal, for whatever reason, doesn't seem to want to have them force the issue.

Booker is not a catch and shoot player.. he has a VERY well rounded overall offensive game and is a above average defender (not great, but he usually gets the better of every matchup).
 
D'Angelo Russell with an off day, 3/15 from the floor and 1/5 from 3-pt world.

Harrison Bros. combined to chuck em bricks.

Trey Lyles keeps on lylin. I wonder what his draft stock is like and what he'd look like if he were featured more.


I think the Jazz should key in on Porzingis, Hezonja, Winslow and Johnson.
 
Couple of SF's I like better than SJ coming out in future years.. not that it matters.

Love Jaylen Brown ('16) and watching Malik Monk ('17) closely.

Very cool that he shot well from 3, this game, but I would expect a guy has size, in that many minutes, to make more than two field goals Otherwise. He is soft. He better hope he's a stretch, else he gets eaten alive.

Jaylen Brown is awesome. I thought Malik Monk was more Westbrook type. Thought he was a guard. Shorter and a bit more wiry than your prototypical NBA 3. Should be a boss player and perimeter defender doe. Maybe I'm wrong, Idk, haven't *********** lately

Yes. I should have clarified. Many believe Monk has a few inches of growth remaining and he's more of a wing 2/3 and once he gets to the league. Either way, he will be a good one.

I have really been watching Malik Newman lately. His 3pt shot has been deadly lately and if that stays true he is almost unguardable. He has been averaging more than 40 per game and such a stud. Think Tyreke with a killer 3 shot.

Well, he could be a better defending Spencer Hawes. That's a nice player if you're picking within our probable range (8-12).
