Following potential 2013 draftees

Just reminding everyone that Archie Goodwin will be a steal at #21. He'll learn to shoot. Bryon Russel couldn't hit the backboard when he first came into the league.

Still on the Goodwin bandwagon? He didn't even test out as athletic as everyone thought he would.
It 'translates' on the court. 100% ... John Wall fast end-to-end.. elevates and dunks over people. Gets by on his first-step. Athleticism is no concern.
His shot is a line drive, though.. not overly optimistic on that..

I still expect many, many more in game dunks from Goodwin than Larkin.
Haha... excellent point and post.
Goodwin: skills, feel, fierce competitiveness, determination
good combination
He'll learn to make plays and get buckets.

Also, there is some chance that Nate Wolters could become a Steve Nash / Jeff Hornacek-caliber player. Not a huge chance, but a chance. It depends on how hard he works on his body and how good he wants to be.
If we got Giannis and Wolters in the first round, I wouldn't cry.

welcome aboard the wolters train.
Saying I wouldn't cry isn't exactly bandwagon, but I see more potential with Wolters than some. I think he's got good size, good body control, pretty good IQ, good instincts, etc. I think the problem with him is that no one's seen him play with better players on his own team. How well will he work with elite bigs and wings, etc.? But I see a lot of potential there. I don't think the athleticism is a big deal. He's not slick like Schroeder, but he can do cross-ups and work off screens. TBH, I think his athleticism is pretty good actually. If he adds strength, he may be able to surprise people with some strong finishes at the rim. He's like the Hayward of PG prospects.
