I don't get it. Why would this be a somke screen to generate more interest? I mean, wouldn't then teams want their #2 pick the same REGARDLESS who they are picking? If Irving is Cav's choice, and Wolves announce they pick some 2nd round scrub with #2, why would this change the value of their...

I keep hearing about potential Miles trades, but CJ is not eligible for a trade, because he could be FA next year. Only people who are definitely under contract next year (like Millsap, etc) can be traded before the CBA expires. CJ is not one of them.

And he did it while a year younger than Ibaka, which is significant. Biyombo will be a very good defensive big in NBA.

Great question. Someone like Milan Macvan for instance (https://www.nba.com/draft/2011/prospects/milan-macvan/), who is also in this draft, played in the same pathetic Adriatic League at the same age, and posted far and away better numbers than Jan. It wasn't even close. Yet Milan is not a first...

I was actually hoping his workouts would go poorly, so he could slide to 12, but now I think there is a little chance he falls to us. Think about the draft prospects. You got, Irving, Kanter, Knight, Williams, Biyomobo, Jonas, Walker who perhaps have a better upside. And even out of these 7...

True, which is why I think he is a first round prospect. But still 43% at PF spot is ridiculously horrendous. And he did not exactly lead NCAA in scoring with 13 ppg. Jimmer is just a so much better prospect.

Singleton is a College PF, who shot 43% from the floor (horrible stat for a PF) en route to getting 13 ppg as a Junior, who will turn 22 later this year. This guy is end of first round at best, certainly no lottery material.

I just don't see 12 guys who are better than Jimmer in this draft. After a core of Irving, Williams, Knight, Kanter, Jonas, Biyombo, Walker, I don't really see anyone who has has less question marks than Jimmer. And perhaps even some of the 7 top guys I named have more question marks...

Vesely is a prototypical draft bust. At 21 years of age, he is no spring chicken. Yet he is playing in absolutely atrocious Adriatic league and is averaging a whopping 10 points there. He has no 3 point range and is horrendous 54% FT shooter. I don't understand why a 21 year old guy, who is just...

I don't know, Glass. I think not matching Wes eventually resulted into our team collapsing and as a result Deron trade and another rebuilding. We basically had to play 4 on 5 nearly all year last year. CJ Miles and Raja Bell were horrible. Had Wes been there, it’s like adding 20% to our starting...

The closest draft bust I can think of with similar level of College accomplishment as Jimmer is Morrison. But Morrison was literally one of the worst atheltes in the draft. And the position he plays (wing) is the most athletic position in NBA. I beleive that's the reason his College success...

Araujo may have put up relatively decent numbers, as a lot of the guys do, but he was nowhere near, I repeat nowhere in the same ball park, of Jimmer's National Player of the Year accomplishment. This is not best BYU player award we are talking about here. To even mention bust Hoffa and Jimmer...

Against who - U18 competition in Europe?

Hafa Araujo has not accomplished anything in College, and he was 2 years older than other seniors. The guy had bust written all over him. Jimmer is much more accomplished and 2 years younger coming out of College. I think Jameer Nelson is a good comparison, and considering Jimmer is bigger, more...

U19 and Nike Summit is not a resume.

I am impressed by coach Cal’s endorsement. His endorsement for Knight is equally impressive. He basically says Kanter is as good as or better than Malone and Knight is better than Stockton. The only question is: do we believe what coach Cal says or do we look what the guys have actually done and...

Couldn't agree more. Let's hope coach Calipari's little diatribe about Kanter being the man was convincing for Wolves.

You seem to have lost touch with reality. Go listen to numerous Greg Miller’s interviews and Deron interview. Everyone keeps saying the fight Deron had with Sloan was no worse than any other player/coach disagreement. Miller and KOC begged Sloan to stay until the end of the year, and he flat out...

Denial of what, genius?

Colton?
