I wouldnt hate that. His PG never even attempted to get him involved so his situation was terrible. When we was allowed to have some free reign he played very well.

there's some rumblings the Magic may take him at 4

also, according to reports the Lakers "really like" Noah and would take him 7th if he fell

Dude has huge hands if they are bigger than Dr. J, however Dr. J. is only 6'6". I remember the SI cover with DJ palming a basketball. He had a huge Afro and I thought he was pretty cool.

I would just take him to piss off the Lakers. I am leaning towards him if Randle and Smart are the only one on board. I think he could be a steal in this draft. I wasn't that impressed with him at the beginning of the year but he played better and I can tell you his PGs were terrible.

Or take him and swap picks later with the Lakers for some cash or a future pick. If Magic take Vonleh at #4, that pushes Exum or someone else down to us.
DL was quoted as saying he was very glad the Jazz didn't drop two spots. Could be that someone impresses during workouts and we are left with one of the original top-4. Or maybe the one who impresses WILL be Vonleh and we'll get him at #5.

If we do, I want some reps. I've been driving the Vonleh bus for the longest time (even before the combine)!

PG_AB is captain of the Vonleh train, sorry.

Didn't Vonleh put on a ton of weight before he started college? How much was it? How much bigger could we expect him to get?
