Following potential 2014 draftees

The ****?

Its more like, in pretty much every draft, there is 1 star (allnba), 2 players that make at least a single allstar game, and a handful of starters. Odds are this draft isn't much different. I'm being generous in saying that there might be 2 stars.

Don't know where you pulled your **** from. Where did I say anything about 1 draft determining everything? Retarded.

So because in past drafts there would only be one star means that in this draft it's being generous to say there might be 2 stars? Again, I'm not saying that your overall conclusion is wrong, but your way of getting to the conclusion is just horrid. Why are you so scared to just evaluate each player individually? Is it because you know that you can't? I'm starting to assume that it is.

And how are past drafts irrelevant? They are completely relevant.

Not really. You can take bits and pieces from them, but they're really not that relevant. Each draft is full of new players, whom don't really have a lot to do with each other. For example, last year in the NFL draft people were saying how you can't take an Alabama RB because they're only successful because of the team they played on in college but limited pro prospects (Ingram and Richardson) and then Eddie Lacy happened. That's why you evaluate each player based on his own merits, not past draft history. I would love for you to explain how they are relevant though. Explain away, please.
 
It really is quite amazing how quiet Randle is in this game.


A shadow of the guy who dominated that UK/Michigan St game at the beginning of the season. Dunno what the issue is with him....

Why do you think there is an issue with him?

In his last game he went for 17 on 7-8 FGs and the game before that he went for 29 and 10 on 8-10 FGs. He's a freshman who had a bad game (still had 10 rebs, btw). Not seeing the "issue".

Meanwhile, Wiggins tore up the nets again going 2-9 FGs, this coming off a 4-14 performance against SDSU, a 3-10 against G'Town and 3-11 against New Mexico. I think the issue with him is that he might just not be a very good basketball player right now. Until he proves he can play, I wouldn't touch him with a 10 foot pole if I were picking #1.

I don't get to watch a lot of college ball, today was a slow day at the shop so I was able to catch this 1 game. So I have no idea what he'd done in the other games, I can only go by what I see in this game.

Makes sense. So let my post teach you. There is no issue (unless he's hurting or something we don't know about), rather he's just have a subpar scoring game - now with 12 rebs.

I dunno man, just doesn't seem like Cal is running many plays for him neither, it's swing swing & a 3pt shot.. I hardly saw him post-up in this game. Granted, may be it was Mississippi State's defense that's doing a good job with him too.
 
Cal's challenging him.

Rick Ray's entire game plan was to not let Randle beat them. Randle was doubled and tripled if he just called for the ball. Johnson wasn't.

The attention on Randle opened things up for easy oops to Poythress and for Young to knock down shots.

Season is going as planned... get these guys to understand how to play together..
