What's new

Following 2016 potential draftees

s far as the father discussion was it takes both to raise great kids. It has been interesting watching my kids with the understanding that their mother has cancer. My 17 year has been so good to her. Always texting her and seeing how she is doing. Where my 16 year old daughter has grown a ton.

My daughter posted this on facebook

"As I go through my life I realize how much the lord tests our faith. This trial my family is facing is super hard for us all, but we're going to be so strong and come out even stronger. My mom, dad, Jake, and Britton are some of the strongest people I know and I love them all dearly. Thank you for being such perfect role models. And mom were gonna get through this together okay?"
 
Seems like Vezenkov has declared for the draft. I'm not as high on him as I used to be, but he might be worth taking with one of our late seconds.
 
North Carolina's Justin Jackson has been invited to participate in the NBA Combine (five on five). Sophomore is testing the waters, for now.

Under the radar guy whose stock could rise after the combine.
 
I thought PKM/PG_AB were like Cuttino Mobeley/Steve Francis close? Wasn't PKM surrogate posting for him when he left previously? Now you guys are beefing? This world makes no sense anymore.

I thought he adopted him. Now it seems PG_AB has turned on him like Tommy Gunn did on Rocky. The drama!

Kid can shoot. Use a 2nd round draft and stash pick and have him spend his off seasons stateside at P3. He gets to know the other players and the Jazz get to see his athletic progress up close.
 
This is brilliant

Honestly, this is what I'd do with all of the 2nd round picks. Neto came over that one summer and made himself a part of the culture. Then he went back to play in Europe and for the Brazilian national team, worked hard and earned a shot at the NBA. I'd do whatever is allowed to cover their housing expenses and their training, and then put them into the middle of my program. If they fit, and it helps. . . you've perfectly used the draft and stash technique. It's what they should have done with Tomic ever since they went exclusively to training at P3 in the offseason. Maybe he is more likely to make the jump from Barcelona if he knows, likes and respects his prospective teammates.
 
Bender. Was iffy on Kanter because of a lack of tape and info, and still probably would have taken him anyways. Bender has more of both and should be the 3rd pick. Don't worry about depth and minutes. Add talent and let the coach and competition sort out the details.
