Following potential 2013 draftees

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Should I post some videos of Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan going right to prove how dominant right handed players are?

His stock might be a bit low with the injury. It depends on how he recovers and if he's able to do workouts.

Not much. He was putting up godly numbers that would have been hard to maintain, and his last 3 years were all pretty darn good.

ive already discussed my trade up targets especially Poythress and Austin. heres a scenario for Shabazz

Lets say Millsap S+T + the 2 first rounders for sake of ease, in return for the rights to draft:

I REALLY REALLY REALLY like BURKS/MUHAMMAD starting back-court Hay can play 6thman 2/3 thats the roto, you can give them all 30+ mins...

now im biased with lefties i literally put like a 5% higher bell curve for lefties, ima lefty, ive played sports. when your lefty and can start from the top corner of the right wing, and you can drive left, and if no one can stop you, without sending help.... watch out... thats why ive said repeatedly over and over Crafty Lefty like harden

i could go on i want to see what you guys think of this though, shabazz seems like a defense breaker to me, i have him #1 overall

Don't get my hopes up.

i kind of see that lineup like burks rushing the ball up the court and shabazz getting dumped the ball, and going into triple-threat at his own pace, like harden or melo.

I also fully expect Shabazz to be NBA Ready from Day 1. and Low T/O's he plays with great pace/vision

Would you give up Burks or Hayward as part of the deal to get Bazz? I know I would.

Millsap (S+T) + Burks + both 1st rounders

Btw i did infact just edit the answer to your question into last post just now, without seeing your question.

yes. one of the few assets id consider moving burks for, Shabazz looks double team worthy, early on. if he progresses in that skillset, watchout, im convinced hes better than what i saw from harden, and its not even close when you compare their freshman years.

Great minds think alike, eh?

One of the bigger differences between Bazz and Harden to me is that Harden's game is more focussed on handles, Muhammad's is more reliant on post ups.

Too small to play SF but too slow to play SG. No thanks.

I'm not alone in this:

Mike (Cleveland)

I have read where you say Muhammad's natural position is at SF. But I have read where lots of people (fans and scouts) who believe he can play SG in the NBA. Why do you believe he is better suited to be an undersized 3 rather than an oversized 2?

I'm not sure he has the quickness, on either end, to be a two. He's strong and physical. He bullies his way around. I think he might get abused by the quicker, smaller twos in the NBA. The issue for scouts is that at 6-5, he's undersized as a three. That's why some are trying to project him as a two guard. But I just don't think he has that game offensively, and more importantly, I'm not sure he can guard twos on the defensive end. That's why he's been sliding a bit in our rankings. Teams love the motor and he's obviously a gifted scorer, but there are concerns.
