What's new

Chicago Draft Combine 2011

I can't wait for Kanter to skip the first year of his pro career, too.

Get the **** out there Enes!!!!!

Since obviously it was his fault that he didn't get to play college ball this year. You'll all see, he's gonna be a very good player. Just watch and wait.
 
For those of you who don't get it Irving and Kanter don't have anything to gain and millions to lose it they participate and have a bad showing.

You're right. I don't get it. As Klay Thompson just pointed out with regards to players skipping the workout, "what do you have to be afraid of? It's just basketball."

You have to be afraid of playing like Tim Duncan in summer ball when you normally play like Tim Duncan in the NBA.

I can understand how the whole procedure is unfair to the players. You have a college/ HS career that teams can study as much as they like, but a good player who performs badly at the combine can hurt his position (thus lose a bunch of money).

Chad Ford:

Kyrie Irving is skipping both drills and athletic testing. Griffin, Wall even LeBron did testing.
 
I think it is funny how these analysts compare players to Wes Matthews alll the time. Any wing player that is solid at everything but not really elite at one thing is compared to him.

Anyways, I think Kanter has a lot to gain from these workouts considering he didn't play this year. I get the other prospects not participating though. Although, I don't think Leonard belongs in that group, he should have done the workouts.

They should make it mandatory unless you are obviously injured. Teams deserve to get as much info on you as possible before they throw millions at you.

Wrong. If I'm Irving, I'm tripping over my own feet at every turn to avoid being drafted by the Cavs, and falling to the Jazz. LOL
