Haven't looked too much into the draft, but the little I looked into McCollum makes me immediately think Randy Foye. Am I wrong in this?

Its certainly possible. I'm thinking he can be a real PG.. but there's just not a lot of definite talent where we'll be selecting... we'll need a little luck.

Actually it isn't because, obviously since you have seen Larkin play you have noticed that he is quick as hell and probably one of the fastest in the NCAA. There is no way Lawson is way faster than him, I guarantee that. Larkin is fast enough for me not to watch Lawson and know that he isn't way faster than Larkin is.

Lawson is elite level NBA fast, I doubt Larkin is. Either way it doesn't matter because Lawson is exponentially better than Larkin ever will be.

Haha, son, Lawson is faster than Larkin. That is fact. Take it from somebody who watches a lot of college basketball.

Anyways, the point I was trying to make is that Lawson had that elite speed, along with being a good distributor and a decent shot that made up for his size. He was a far better college player than Larkin ever was.

Now I'm going to ask you this...what skills do you see from Larkin that make you think he can be a starting PG in the NBA?

Lawson isn't tall but he is really strong. That is really important to maintain his speed advantage when he gets bumped.

1st off, I like Larkin.


2nd: He is listed as having a 7'5 standing reach on DX, that is ridiculously short. BUT, as you can tell, from the very 1st clip he throws down a 2 handed jam fairly easily and gets over the rim with time to spare. Either his standing reach isn't that short, or he has a really insane vertical.

I was reading and espn article regarding wiggins. Most of the panel thought wiggins really wanted to go to ky, but would ultimately pass so he could be showcased a little more. But if he goes to ky....once in a generation type of team.
 
At this point I hope there is something we can trade these picks for. Really this draft blows. I thought the kanter draft was ridiculously poor, but damn. Not one single player from top to bottom excite me, not even Burke.
