Following potential 2013 draftees

I'd call it a maybe.. obviously there's a slight chance they piss us all off .. and we don't need a 3rd big from the draft.

Well I hope we don't re-sign Jefferson and Millsap. WCS, Plumlee, Olynyk, and Gobert wouldn't be bad options for the Jazz as a 3rd big.
 
I don't always agree with them. Givony hated Enes and all but guaranteed him a bust. I often think they're wrong.
But I've been following this avidly for 20+ years and I'm just saying they're the best at getting it right .. but they're far from perfect.
Beyond hyperbole.

But ultimately agreed on all points. Givony was not high on Kanter, that's for sure.

I'll usually own up .. and maybe I was overly sensitive, but his vids on poor defense and all the negative stuff was pretty transparent, imo.
 
I think Givony is in the pocket of the overseas leagues officially or unofficially, and I think spurned Turkish clubs somehow got to him, but we'll never know, I guess.

When I saw Kanter at the NHS, my eyes widened. Hobbled players don't just show up and casually break HOF-ers scoring records in less than 30-minutes every year. The question for me was always what had happened since that game and what would happen once he was drafted. People that didn't see the talent baffle me in that regard. So when Givony just can't come off the negatives, despite that other draft sites seemed to be hitting way more on the topic of Kanter than him... I don't know, just didn't and doesn't seem right. Especially since Givony hits way more than anyone else in the game.
 
I will admit that I wanted Brandon Knight instead of Enes Kanter, but did have Kanter as the #4 best player in the draft. I am glad I was wrong though. Kanter could easily be the best or second best player in the 2011 draft.
 
Obviously there's a lot of time between now and the end of the cbb season. Things will change, stocks will rise and fall. Right now I'd put WCS around 14 - 16. If I was that kid, and got a guarantee at, say, 17... then I'd take a hard look.

Anyways, the WCS stuff is a sideshow for me. I'm dialed in on Burke... he needs a Note on his chest.
 
Nate Wolters is impressing me right now. 9 points on (3-5) from the field, 4 rebounds, 3 assists, and 1 steal with only 1 turnover at half. His team is winning 29-25, one thing I noticed this game is he likes to find 3 point-shooters in transition if they are open. If he had a better supporting cast he would have more assists all in all he is looking pretty solid right now.

Link to game?
 
SDSU looks like they have a pretty solid team to me. Some good outside shooters and a couple of decent sized big men who can play.
