Chicago Draft Combine 2011

For those of you who don't get it Irving and Kanter don't have anything to gain and millions to lose it they participate and have a bad showing.
Exactly! For all the what if? scenarios, Irving's the odds on favorite to go #1; and the only live game action most have seen from Kanter is 22 minutes at the Nike Elite Summitt and he's already a consensus top-5 pick.
 
Kanter has a lot to gain. With a great showing, he could easily be the #1 pick.

This says $900,000 from 3rd to 1st, but if he shows how slow he is and drops to 12 through 20th it's a whole lot more. Also, paying 50% taxes on $4 million for three years leaves you with $6 million. Do the same with a $1 million contract and you don't have a huge golden parachute.

I wouldn't work out if I were Kanter, knowing I'm all bark and no bite.

Well he's about to workout with the centers, so we'll at least get some info on him.
 
when will they show the big men? i can't watch espn3 :(

he has range and shots lights out. excellent mechanics for a big man :)

Centers are working out right now. It's on ESPNU as well, but I think only for 20 more minutes. They are doing a kind of run the floor, quick post up drill right now.
 
I'm watching it. He looked good running and dunking. They dont show the players all the time which is stupid (I don't need to have a close up on chad ford's face just because he is talking). They have only shown about 3 or 4 jumpers from Kanter and he clanked all of them.
 
I know this is free coverage from ESPN U, but come on, can they at least show Kanter shoot a couple jumpshots rather than spend the whole time highlighting some fringe draft nobody.

what would you give for his leaping, quickness and running, between 1 and 10?
 
Well the coverage is over and they showed basically nothing of Kanter. He looked pretty athletic jumping wise from what they showed, wasn't very fast at getting down the floor though.
