My boy Scotty Hopson killing it

K Leonard also.
Just three reps on bench press.
Looked much stronger.

His arms are extremely long, but yeah I thought he would get more up.

Biggest suprise to me was Shelvin Mack's 39" vertical. Perhaps because he would always appear to be playing under-control that I didn't notice he had some explosiveness, but that's impressive for him.

Hey! Let's draft Mack at #3. Reunite him with Hayward.
Nobody's suggested him at #3 yet.

nikola vucevic seems very, very unathletic. is he a stiff?

I see you've identified a threat to the sole reason you exist.

Although Jimmer had a good agility time, when I watched him run it, he ran it awkwardly almost like it shouldn't count. His side peddle and back peddle were ugly.

These measurements might be the least important piece of the puzzle, IMO. These are conducted in a vacuum environment where some shine that don't when they play (Luke Babbitt, anyone?), or gamers might not (Blake Griffin's numbers are shockingly poor).

EDIT: That doesn't mean they aren't interesting and that I won't be looking at them for a long time.

I think everyone got at least two shots at it.

Jimmer also had smallest hand size at combine.
If true he has smaller hands than me and I'm three inches shorter.
Small hands can't help an NBA player.
Could be very big disadvantage.

See, TIME is not really an indicator since it doesn't really translate to defense. If you've got a player on skates, you run him over and get to the line or you break his ankles.

Another big disadvantage for an NBA player.
