I don't know, the announcers don't talk much about the action or about the plan for the use of the players. If I had to guess, he'd play because there are players that played in the first half that are playing in the second too.


...OMG, TOKOTO! Wow!

UNC fans know Tokoto can dunk it problem is he cant shoot it, but if he could be a more athletic version of Tony Allen that would not be to bad.

I feel like he's much more versatile and smarter player than Allen(he generally makes the right plays and fills the stat-sheet), but I'm not sure he'd be as good defensively. Allen is a knucklehead offensively, wild and inaccurate passing, inability to finish from anywhere around the court, horrible decision making. Tokoto at least finishes well around the rim.
 
According to people at the combine via twitter De Paula actually did really good. I guess I only caught his bad moments. I wish ESPN would just focus on the game and have someone do a play-by-play instead of listening to Fran talk. I ****ing hate Fran.

yah, it's kind of annoying ... wish they'd focus on the game than listen to Fran wax poetic about unrelated topics and players that aren't there.
 
I wonder if they ask how much they like to play video games, because that seems to be the common hobby of all our players.
 
Damn, Dekker looks impressive on the max vert test. I don't know how high he's jumping but it looks really high...
 
Boxscore from the first game:

Tyler Harvey is in one of the teams about to play.

Damn, I hate watching the Harrisons play...
 
Oubre records 37'' max vertical.
...
Tyler Harvey not doing well... shooting a ton of fade aways... and nothing's dropping

Utah going to interview Cameron Payne.

I like him a lot, but just not sure we need another young player at that position. If we pick him I do think it says something about our faith that either Exum or Trey are going to become the point guards that we need.

The only way we are picking a pg is if we are trading Burke or stashing him oversees. imo.

I would be shocked if we picked a pg. Based on what the front office has said and what people who talk to them say, they are believers in Dante. If we moved down and picked up an asset and then took Payne I wouldn't be shocked. It just depends on how good they think he can be. There is a lot to like about him and I wouldn't be surprised if he becomes a draft steal.

Stashing Burke oversees seems kind of odd :P

Personally my hope for the PG situation is to move Burke to hopefully bring in De Paula(and maybe something else). I just like having the extremely long point guard to disrupt the other teams offense, and I think what Dante was doing there was an underrated part of our defense this last season.
 
Sad thing is that Philadelphia has enough picks in this draft to sign half of the combine invites.

2015 first round draft pick from L.A. Lakers (extremely unlikely as two teams would have to leapfrog them)

2015 first round draft pick from Miami (small possibility that Miami drops from #10 unless the odds are ever in our favor)

2015 second round draft pick from Denver

2015 second round draft pick from Golden State

2015 second round draft pick from Houston

2015 second round draft pick from New Orleans
