LOL ... @ Gordon hitting 2 jumpers in a row...
We need to get that Nick Wiggins guy.
I need to see a workout with Gordon and Vonleh going against each other.
I also need to see a workout with Exum and Smart going against each other.
Chad Ford said he could go as high as #7.
Not that big of a fan of his. Can't shoot the ball.
Shot 36% from three and lead the NCAA in turnovers with 127 in 35 games.
That's around 3.6 per game.
If he was there and we took Gordon at #5, we essentially just took two guys who can't shoot.
There are several shooters that will go in the teens----McDermott, Harris, Stauskas, Young, and Saric. I think they're all gone by 18 though.
Damn, 7, really? I listened to a DX podcast and he said he wouldn't be surprised if he goes late lottery. Sounded like it was a given he is going to move up big though.
no way in fuuuu Payton goes 7.. or top 10 for that matter. I'd be shocked with anything higher than 14/15.
Also from Chad Ford:
"Payton surprised people by refusing to participate in the drills. Given his limited exposure, some GMs were grumbling about the decision. But they shouldn't. As his stock continues to rise, sources say some teams in the mid-first round were pushing for him not to do the drills. They'd prefer he remain a secret. His measurements and athletic testing numbers were both above average for his position. He also drew raves in his interviews. I believe Payton is the true sleeper in this draft and is being underrated by scouts. Once he gets into workouts, he will work his way into the lottery."
