Following potential 2012 draftees

[Dr. Jones]

PKM, what are your thoughts on CJ Leslie of NC State?

I was upset when CJ Leslie chose NCState over UK. I wanted him ahead of TJones. Jones will be drafted sooner, as a product of playing in a better system and better coach, but Leslie has more upside, by far. He was a teammate in high school with John Wall (another reason I wanted him at UK) and showed extreme versatility. He's very similar to QMiller, but more athletic. Only downside is he makes mistakes (too many) but I felt that was immaturity more than stupidity (not sure).

He could be a fanastic SF in the league, but I don't know that he's learned much at State .. I do like him, always have.

How is his outside shot?

How is his outside shot?

Average I'd say. Without peeking, I think he's probable a 35% 3pt shooter. He slashes and hits good around the rim and on mid-range .. or at least used to. Also a good rebounder and shot blocker.

I might be wrong with this but doesn't he have maturity issues?

I'm not sure but PKM, whats your take on him?

Mitchell is a talent, but a punk. Locker room cancer, mouths off to coaches and teachers. Big time hothead. Academic issues. I don't know that he's still on that path since enrolling at North Texas, but I wouldn't go there. He's not good enough to put up with his crap. He had problems in high school, with Gottfried at Alabama, and was eventually kicked off the Alabama team by Anthony Grant. Kudos to Grant.

Marshall with another good offensive game. Is that 3 in a row now?

He's on fire. Making me a believer. How was the streaking?

Did you mix up the two Tony Mitchells? The Tony Mitchell I'm talking about didn't qualify for Missouri and then went to North Texas. The other Tony Mitchell got suspended by Alabama for the year

Yes. I remembered the Tony from Alabama and just kid of assumed he must have ended up in North Texas (hence the, "I don't know anything about him at NTex.")

Cy - here you go again with your hyperbole .. show me one post I ever called myself an expert at anything. You silly streaker.
