Bold Predictions for 2013 Draftees

Bold predictions

Zeller will have the best NBA career.

Jazz will move up to get McCollum (or at least try to) -- Hayward/ McCollum character guys set the tone in the locker room.

Nogueira will be a beast in 5 years.

Book it.
 
Six months ago, he was still being compared to Russel Westbrook and showing up in the top 10 in mocks. Now he's supposed to be a mid-2nd rounder. I haven't seen anyone's draft stock flip-flop like that since....well,.......since....I dunno.....maybe Josh Selby two years ago (who happens to be out of the league). But Archie ain't goin out like that. Oh and then there's PJIII and Quincy Miller....and probably a few others....but whatever.

Kentucky was a situation where their bigs couldn't score, Poythress was lackadaisical, Harrow was erratic, their outside shooting was shaky, and teams just packed in a zone that Goodwin couldn't beat because he's not polished enough yet. He wasn't ready to lead that team.

The combine hurt him a little as well. Overall I think there is a gravitation toward drafting more NBA ready players than 5 years ago. GMs don't want to draft a guy and develop him just so that he is finally ready to contribute in his last year, just in time for a high roller like Cuban or Allen to outbid you on his services.
 
I might be wrong that McCollum will be a stud, but to me he is one of the most sure things in the draft as far as being at least a solid player. Almost no bust potential IMO

I like Stevens big time.


 
Caldwell Pope will shoot 45%+ from 3 at least one season and will go down as one of the greatest shooters of alltime. He'll also be Better than Bradly Beal
