Following potential 2013 draftees

[The Midnight]

I think Smart puts his name in with the option to withdraw. He should go through the process either way. I think he'll change his mind ultimately.

Well hopefully this backlash changes his mind...

If he is a true contrarian it will only make his decision stronger.

Would you remain a contrarian if I give you $14 million and tell you to stop being one?

Nah, I'm not on Smart's level man. I admire that man. He isn't going to drop out of the lottery, I'm calling it.

Yeah you got that right - he's on a whole 'nother level.

Smart is a Dumbass.

kabongo, wolters or Larkin......ugh.

I guess I just find it refreshing that a basketball player isn't obsessed with money. This just makes me like Smart even more.

how do you know that's what this is about? I'm certain it's not.. certain it's purely bad advice.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Who said Smart is coming out in 2014? The dude is going to defy the system. He going to go Shane Battier on us.

Kudos on back pedaling all the way to pretending to make it all a joke.

Maybe we are a bad jump shooting team because we don't have a good PG setting up shots?

Good point. I'll give you that.

I still stand by my original point that the majority of guards who can't shoot won't succeed in the NBA.

 

[Hantlers]

Which is why I'm sick over his decision. He made a multi-million dollar mistake.. fact.

Perhaps. Some players leave early so they can get lottery money, but then find themselves out of the NBA in 4-5 years because they weren't ready. Some players stay, get drafted later, but are better because of it and have a 10+ year career. Which one is better?

I'm beginning to feel like no one shoots it well in the NBA.
