By the way, I checked on Scott Machado's last game.
He stunk it up shooting, but had 7 assists.
I think I'll give him a month or so before I check back in, I guess I can give him a pass on a bad shooting night if he picks it up again.

Thanks for the update Spazz.

Funny that Wroten leads in ppg and rebounding, but also STINKS IT UP shooting and has the most TO's. Sounds like a ballhog??
Marshall leads in assists AND fewest turnovers.

Man, it's a mess at PG this year ... and I'm TELLING you, it's WORSE next year. I'd have to rate these guys, currently, as 1) Marshall, 2) Teague, 3) Kabongo, 4) Wroten .. but I'm not the least bit sold on any of them.
 
Arnett Moultrie had 21 points and 13 rebounds against a pretty good West Virginia front line. If we have a 2nd round pick, and this guy slips to the 2nd round we must get him. Beast on the boards, athletic, 6'11, shoots from deep, and hustles. Also an ace from the FT line, shooting 89% on the year (he averages 6 attempts a game).
 
Maybe I'm being overly critical...but I'm glad we didn't get Harrison Barnes last year. I know that Kidd-Gilchrist is a superb defender, but Barnes simply cannot take people off the dribble. I know I'm the local Duke fan, and viewed as a homer, but right now I just see him as a spot-up shooter. Granted I've watched like 2 games of his this year, so maybe some of you guys who have seen him more can correct me if I'm wrong.


/BTW, Props to Cy Torbin and PKM for proving me wrong about Teague blowing up Marshall. I was wrong. You will be repped accordingly.
 
Agreed about Barnes. He takes way too many difficult shots. I think he can get to the rim better, he just settles for his pull ups. He looks like a 6th or 7th overall pick to me right now.

Basically, yeah. I think I'd put him at #5 in my big board at this point.
 
Barnes looks like a shooter who can take one or two dribbles. He's like an Allan Houston meets Luol Deng. Should go in the middle of the lottery.

Davis, Drummond, Perry Jones and Quincy Miller all look like bigger-impact players. Players like Brad Beal and Jeremy Lamb could also end up being better pros. Lamb in particular is an interesting player. Great athlete. Quick. Great Stroke. I bet he continues to move up draft boards by the end of the year.
