Isn't there a clear difference between Dennis Lindsey and Kevin O'Connor ?

I'd take Kay Thompson over him in a heartbeat now.

Shocking.

Too bad no team in the NBA would've taken Klay Thompson 3rd in that draft. I also saw 0 people anywhere that strongly expressed their belief that Klay Thompson would be as good as he has become.

Kanter has his limitations. He still has yet to prove he should have went 3rd overall. I'd take Kay Thompson over him in a heartbeat now.

Kanter has some promise too, but his lack of athleticism and his bone head plays worry me.

Agree. Not willing to give up on him yet, though. I think he was a broken man under Corbin last year and lost a ton of confidence. Also, the constant mention of the Jazz being 0 for "X" with Kanter as a starter, as if that was the ENTIRE reason for the team losing.

My biggest question for the draft and the offseason is how does DOL value the KOC players Burks and Kanter.

im very curious to know this as well.

I read an interesting bit from Toronto, who said they had Leonard #2 on their draft board behind Valanciunas (I'm guessing of players still available) but they may not have taken Leonard if Valanciunas was gone because it would have been a tough sell to the fans.

I wonder how much the perceived fan opinion plays into the decision making of some teams.

I think it's more that GM'S rely too much on mock drafts and those rankings. Which is pretty dumb. Why not just pick your guy. I don't like the idea of having to take who is ranked around your spot. History shows that just doesn't work out anyways most of the time.

The point was that Kanter isn't necessarily worth the 3rd overall selection. Which means you can't expect to get that value for him.

How about you dim those cynical aspergers glasses bro. You might find life more enjoyable.

Lol are you messing with me? Enes Kanter sucks at defense and is slow as mud. You really want him guarding starting centers in this league?

Fixed it for you bro...

 

[Stoked]

How about we round up to 7.

lol

Hibbert is greased lightning I'm told.

most overrated/undeserving All star besides Bosh last year. That those two slackers made it over big Al is travesty.

Yeah bro. Chris bosh totally sucks. I'm still mad he left the raptors too. Exum is going to turn out just like him. Just sucking all the time and never winning titles.

Hibbert had a very good 1st half of the season. And that's all that really matters in terms of the AS game. But yeah, I agree...Big Al should have made it.

What Exum has to do with Bosh? Talk about Milicic than you will make some sense.
