Maybe my standards are low, but I just want a player who can make shots. Don't care what he looks like or if he's 6'8" or 6'4"...please, let's just draft a "making" guard.
Yeah thats a fair point. I am on board with that.

I really like Booker. If you think about it, Calipari held him in higher regard than even Russell as Russell wasnt really recruited by Kentucky. That must tell you something!
That Calipari just recruits on rankings?

What about shots that he could make, but can't get off because of long, fast help defenders of the NBA?
It's not as destructive as a missed shot, but it reduces his value unquestionably.
Exactly. Jazz guards are getting plenty of looks. They're usually not having to shoot with a hand in their face. They just can't make shots.That has less to do with height than it does release point and shot quickness.

Oubre had a bounce-back game: 18 pts on 6/9 shooting, with 4/6 from 3-pt. Also had 6 rebs.
I'm still not really sold on Kelly "Ben McLemore" Ooubre.
I'm not either.
I'd be okay with with him around #10.
I'd take Booker, Winslow, Looney or even Turner over him... I think that pushes him to around #12 for me.
I'd take Booker first among those guys.
Hopefully we aren't in a position where we're choosing between guys like Turner and Winslow. Just get top 6 damn it.
Booker & Looney are guys that I think when it is all said and done could be top #5 in this class.
Guys with ceilings higher than their draft spots:
- Hezonja
- Booker
- Looney
- Pozingis
