Following potential 2012 draftees

[larryselbows]

I still think the Jazz should draft Anthony Davis.

Barnes' game seems to be more fitted to pro style than college style.

If the Jazz have the 8th or 9th pick and he falls to that point, hard to not take him.

100%. (and he's not a UK guy, guy)

Also, how does Marquis compare to his brother Jeff? Jeff is finally having a decent season in the NBA.

Jeff assured me that Marquis is better ... but what's a brother to say? DLamb said he played with them and that Marquis was better .. but who was playing harder?

Tough call. Barnes likely fixes the outside shooting. MKG can lock down 3 positions on the floor on defense and is a GLUE guy for a young team.
50/50.

Have we sort of found our own MKG in Damarre Carroll? He seems to be quite physical, hustle guy, determined, not afraid to be in the paint & rebound, has the size, does the little thing that a "glue guy" would do. He's also not known for his shooting but he can surprise you.

He is a very very poors mans version of MKG.

Well considering we basically got him for FREE, and MKG is projected to be around #3 in a loaded draft...

One of MKG's best attribute is that he hustle his butts off, it's something you can't teach.. seems Carroll has that same mentality already.

Demarre's athleticsm is bad though. I don't think he can keep up with a ton of players.

Definitely not quick, but seems like he's physical enough... may be a Ron Artest type physicality?

 

[Dr. Jones]

Scouts say it's rare to find such a high motor and intangibles in a guy so physically gifted and with off the charts bbIQ. The hustle is the icing on top, not the cake itself.

I don't think it changes anything, but MKG was up all night thinking and got up this morning, called Calipari, and told him he wants to stay at UK. Also heard, in the same phone call this morning, that DLamb may return and play a lot of PG to increase his draft spot for next year. Calipari DID tell MKG he needs to be smart and make a business decision and to come back is not the smart move.

In the end, most believe it's just the jitters/butterflies of a great kid that loves Caliapri like a dad .. and he'll announce for the draft today, but thought I'd share.
