Bold Predictions for 2013 Draftees

Hey you guys. Get in here with some of these bold predictions going around.



I'm going with Victor Oladipo is going to be the best player in this draft.
 
I'll go with Steven Adams having a better NBA career than Zeller, Gobert, Olynyk and .....maybe even Noel. He'll be neck and neck with Len, but people from Rotorua are tough, so I'll give Adams the advantage. He's potentially a more athletic version of Bogut. Steven Adams is the Andre Drummond of this draft.

I'll go with Nate Wolters being a solid PG who is being underrated because of the conference he played in and the fact that people haven't seen him play with better players. This is the same reason Paul George was underrated in 2010. He'll remind people of Nash and Hornacek. He's crafty, smart and knows his limitations, plus he works hard enough to get his body where it needs to be. He's been going up against athletic 2-guards and double teams for two years now.

I'll go with Archie Goodwin becoming better than Caldwell-Pope, Allen Crabbe and Jamal Franklin. Why? Because he wants it, and he's talented enough to get it.

I'll go with Trey Burke being regarded as the 3rd or 4th PG in this draft 3 years from now. He'll have a hard time defending and getting to the rim. Meanwhile, I see Schroeder, McCollum and Wolters as being legit along with Burke and probably Larkin.

Glen Rice Jr. will go top 10 in a re-draft two years out.

Schroeder will go top 5 in a re-draft two years out.

Noel is a slightly rich man's Larry Sanders, but he needs to gain 20 lbs.

How do you know? You're from New Zealand?
 
Oh, and Shabazz will be okay, not spectacular. I'm thinking Caron Butler basically with a bit more drive and a bit less J.

After Rudy Gobert and Livio Jean-Charles get in the league, people will finally realize that French players aren't like other Euros. They're fiery buggers.
 
wolters will be better tnan Burke, and be the best PG of the draft behind Schroeder

MCW will learn how to shoot and be at 42% FG and 13-15 ppg by his 3rd year

Shabazz will still be a one dimensional selfish diva, but only averaging 12 ppg. Defense will remain horrible.

Kelly Olynyk will be caught smoking, or testing positive for pot, and then his high body fat % will make perfect sense.

Giannis will look like a bust until year 4

Haha.

I might be wrong. Whithey does look like a big stiff, but watching him play I saw a bad *** defender. It might not translate though. So who knows. But I find it strange that people arent high on him. He played well and he is really long and tall. I think it might because his name is almost spelled Whitey and that comes with the negative connotation I guess and he is an upper classman.


Its hard to project some of these big men this year. It just might be a great draft class. I can see some good potential in a lot of these big men this year.

I'm more sure that Oladipo will be a stud than anything else. I think that's my boldest prediction about the draft.
 
Lets start with the boldest of all
