Yeah I know but there was a little sarcasm in there. (notice the 99.5% chance against Kobe likeness) I have not seen Burks enough to comment on him really, but the guy can definitely score. Perhaps at least the next Derozan or we get intl dude who becomes next Gasol. hey a guy can dream!
2011 draft.....
- Thread starter Duck Rodgers
- Start date

would Jordan Hamilton be a good pick at 12? He is projected a little lower on draftexpress currently. anyone watched him? He and Burks both are intriguing from what I have read. Not sure who would be better of the two.
The problem with this draft is it has plenty of "intriguing" prospects to me but maybe 2 "can't miss" guys.

Thank god we have the number of promising intl players this draft if it were like last year no doubt this would perhaps be the worst draft of this century. Definitely the year for intl players to declare.

NBA pedigree, Size, handles and most importantly can get his shot off.

Hi. What does everyone think about Jimmer? I think he would make the Jazz better and they should take him at #5.
The Jazz would shoot much better with Jimmer on the floor.

I say no to jimmer and you can read all 123 pages of this thread and find enough on this topic to last you a whole skipped day of school.
Anybody speak a spanish? Can read bits and pieces. Most interesting thing if he has a buyout. 12 would probably be to soon for him anyway, but he is 6'10"-6'11" and can shoot it from the 3. We dont have that type of player unless you count the hobbled Okur.

El Real Madrid pacta con Mirotic ampliarle el contrato hasta 2017
No quiere que se le escape su perla cultivada. Nikola Mirotic (ala-pívot, 20 años, 2.09 m.) tenía contrato hasta 2013, pero el Real Madrid ya ha llegado a un acuerdo con él para ampliarlo tres años más, hasta 2016, más uno opcional por parte del club, lo que le permite atarle hasta 2017. Una noticia que será oficial en breve y que TUBASKET.com está condiciones de adelantar, tras la confirmación de fuentes madridistas. Nikola llegó al Madrid hace 5 años, procedente de su Podgorica natal, capital de Montenegro. Deslumbra en las categorías inferiores y la temporada pasada, con sólo 18 años, se va cedido al Palencia de la Adecco Oro, recién estrenada su nacionalidad española. Allí no hace números de estrella pero sí madura lo suficiente como para afrontar esta temporada con el primer equipo blanco en ACB. Hasta noviembre no juega casi nada. Messina echa mano de él un un pésimo partido en Charleroi y hasta hoy: quinto máximo anotador del equipo en ACB y en Euroliga; canastas decisivas para devolver al Real Madrid a la F4. Mirotic tendrá una cláusula NBA por si decide probar antes de acabar su contrato, aunque la idea del Madrid es que se quede hasta, mínimo, 2016

The Real Madrid pact with Mirotic extend the contract until 2017
He does not want you escape your cultured pearl. Nikola Mirotic (power forward, 20 years old, 2.09 m) had a contract until 2013, but Real Madrid has reached an agreement with him for extended three years until 2016, plus one optional part of the club, which allows you to tie up to 2017. A story that will be official soon and is able to advance TUBASKET.com after Real Madrid confirmed sources. Nikola arrived in Madrid for 5 years, from his native Podgorica, capital of Montenegro. Dazzle at the junior level and last season with only 18, he is transferred to the Adecco Palencia Gold, just released his Spanish nationality. There does not star numbers but mature enough to face this season with the first white team in the ACB. Until November it plays almost anything. Messina hand him a check a bad game at Charleroi and to this day: fifth leading scorer in the ACB and Euroleague; crucial baskets to return to Real Madrid to the F4. Mirotic NBA will have a clause in case he decides to try before the end of his contract, although the idea of Madrid is to stay until at least 2016.

Sounds like Smack might be 16 or 17, wouldn't it be great if he was?
"Many NBA scouts and executives believe Bismack Biyombo is older than his listed age of 18.
Coaches who have worked with Biyombo earlier in his career while he was still in Congo think he's “no older than 20 at most,” while Biyombo's agent, Igor Crespo, has evidence that proves Biyombo is even younger.
Crespo claims he took Biyombo to a specialist to conduct a bone age study immediately upon his arrival in Spain. The study involves taking x-rays of an adolescent's wrist and hand to see if his growth plates are still open. Because the cartilage in Biyombo's hand hadn't fused at that point, the specialist came to the conclusion that he could be 16 or 17 at most, but not 18, when growth plates are expected to be closed.
This obviously rules out the possibility of Biyombo being five to eight years older than he's listed, as the wild speculation we've seen recently on the Internet indicates. Crespo says he will willingly share these x-rays with any NBA team that requests them."
