Following 2016 potential draftees

[ncoloradojazz]

Alos the nuggets already have 2 promising young Euro centers so why would they waste 2 first round picks on centers? I have laid out what the nuggets need to my nuggets friends and a friend who works in the front office liked my style of thinking

Nuggets need to strip the team down mostly. Mudiay is a good starting piece to build around and I Like Harris as a potential defensive stopper and he has improved his offense.. Anyway trade Faried and Gallo who is so soft anyway and grab another 1st round pick this year.. Then I want to see nuggets grab these 3 players.
Sabonis
Zimmermen
Denzel Valentine

Valentice would give them that high iq player and Zimemrman can runb the court and has a ton of potential and a nba body. Nuggets like to push the ball. Sabonis is a rugged 4 man with legit nba size and they need that.. This would be a team who could defend and who could push the ball in transition. Obviously they would need some more players but this would be a start

I mentioned Peter Jok like a month or 2 ago in this thread, he's clutch and a damn good player 6'6" long arms he shoots 40% from 3 on 6 attempts per. He's got an array of impressive scoop shots and he's tough. Definite pro..

He's gotta be the best player in college that isn't rated in DX's Fr.-Sr. Rankings, he's nowhere to be found in the Jr. rankings, which is heinous.

He was a top 30 player as a sophomore in high school but had a serious major injury that took a lot of time to heal from... He is going be a steal for some team.. He has the athletic ability to defend and like you said he has an arsenal of offensive moves... Needs to get stronger but I believe that will come in time. I wouldn't be surprised if he declared this year and then became the fast riser on draft boards after the combine

There's no team needs taken into account. Just threw the teams up there for a reference point.

that's why I suggested doing just a big board brother.

I agree with you I think Ingram might take that number one spot from Simmons. Simmons has not impressed me at all this year in big games.. I don't know who he defends in the pro also. To light and skinny at this point to guard 4s and he is athletic but his lateral quickness I don't know if he can keep up with a lot of the SFS in the league

I saw a guy light the gym up for 30 points on Satruday for U of New Mexico. Elijah Brown is a 6'4" 2 guard transfer from Butler and the son of Mike Brown the former Cleveland and LA Lakers head coach. Might be worth one of the Jazz 3 2nds. He was a man among boys and played decent D.

 

[ncoloradojazz]

He was really the only player on Vandy that showed up the other day vs Texas, it was pretty impressive, If he can keep playing like that he's gonna creep up boards..

Awaiting measurements on him too. If he's 7' he could go high..

His measurements will be off the charts..His game is just raw. He really needs to stay in college another year. Go play with an international team this summer and build upon his game. Maybe go work with a big man coach

I don't see him as nba player

This week I am putting together my big board of Big10 prospects for the league.. Ill post it here. The big10 has some pretty good prospects at the moment. Hell Purdue has 2 big men who should go round 1 this year and another big who could be a first round pick in a couple years.. Some solid rotation guys for the league are playing the Big10 this year. Even Iowa has 2 guys who could be solid players. I think Peter Jok ends up as a starter for a team

Look forward to seeing the big board.

Let me say this to those who doubt Buffy Hields game... He is shooting 52 percent from 3 land with close to 8 attempts per game. 90 percent free throw shooter... 6foot5inch 215 pounds with a 6foot9 wingspan... He has proven he can play. SOme of you are putting way to much into the fact he is a senior... He can contribute right away and be a starter in the league for 10 years. This draft is going see some upperclassmen drafted in lottery. This trend is going to continue also.. You are getting close to a finish product with Buddy and you know what you are getting. With youngsters you are gambling and hoping the pan out and a lot of times they don't... As isaid before I believe the 2 best players out of this draft class is going be Dunn and Hield.. Simmons is just overrated at this point for me...

WRT Hield being a senior, Steph was a junior. I'm thinking GSW doesn't regret that choice.

I'd hate to be the team that has to use a high lottery pick on Skal. You're drafting a terrible basketball player and just praying he surprises and reaches his potential. 90/10 be will be a bust, but teams in that 8-12 range won't be able to pass on the outside chance he becomes really good.

I love Hield... I don't see how that guy isn't successful. I think he rises big but if not I'd love to get him. Skal is a monster project and if he fell to us at 15 then the risk reward is certainly there.

I do think there are a couple good two guards in Valentine and Hield that I think could contribute immediately and may make an Alex burks trade more palatable for me.
