He might not care to. Maybe he doesn't feel the need to. It'd be interesting to get Xthren to analyze an interview of him, if there was one. DX says he's talented and knows it. Mr. Cocky. That can be good or bad.

Cocky is always bad. Confidence is good.

Take it from a guy that knows, not all frames are created equal (see Evans, Jeremy). Considering that this guy is widely purported to blow off huge parts of the game and the preparation around it, that makes it all the more concerning.
 
The 2012 hype is growing because there is more star power, but some of those names aren't worth wiggling your worm to.

Terrence Jones? Meh

You beat me to it Numb, but this obsession with the mythical 2012 Draft class makes me laugh. 70% of you haven't even seen anyone in this draft class play a single half of basketball but are willing to tell us all their weaknesses. Now you're trying to tell me you know the Austin Rivers, Millers, McAdoo's and Gilchrist's of the worlds games inside and out and they are basically unicorns or the basketball world?

By the sound of it the basketball world will never be the same after 2012.....they'll have to raise the hoop to 12'. If Draftexpress told you I was a lockdown defender and had a good jumpshot most of you would take it for gospel and have a thread dedicated to taking Bodhi at 3.

Also, am I the only one that thinks this year's draft class is a lot better than advertised?
 
Perhaps we should wait to see some of these players play before we get ready for the 2012 draft.

/BTW, no player scares me more than Austin Rivers. Average athleticism, average height and frame and streaky shot do not make a good player. He has the benefit of a great first step and probably the best coaching that anybody in that high school class has had. He's good, but I don't know if he's super-star good. Possibly a Gilbert Arenas type....but like I said, who knows. Lets let them play a year or two.

KD's body isn't far off from Evans or is it?

Think the NBA can change that. NBA teams as we know invest a lot more time and staff in the physical conditioning of players. Dont get me wrong I am not all gung ho about drafting him though. But if we do go with Knight or Walker we got to look at him.
