What's new

Following potential 2014 draftees

Bolded the ones I agree with.

Dang you don't agree with Adams or Early?

Only ones I was kind of doubting myself on was Grant and Burton.

Actually like Young as a pro. Think he can do nearly the same thing he did in Florida in the NBA as a 4th big and be great at it. Would be a completely unsexy pick, but would produce.
 
Dudes in the 20's I would take over either Harrison:

Lavine
McDaniels
PJ Hairston
Jerami Grant
Adrein Payne
Rodney Hood
Jordan Adams
James Young
Cleanthony Early
Elfrid Payton
Deonte Burton
Glenn Robinson
Patric Young

*Didn't name players in DX mockdraft that went 1-19*

So... DX lists 13 guys going in the 20's? Are you sure?

I was saying this is who I would pick in the 20's, then denoted at the bottom I didn't include any player mocked to go before 20. That is a list of all players not expected to go in the teens who I would take over the Harrisons.
 
*Is what. Anger? Lmao you think I am getting butt hurt over some old dude who can't play basketball so he criticizes Aaron Harrison for shooting 36%. Laughable tbh.

I mean, I would consider myself old, but I suppose I am compared to you. Again, I'm not sure what my playing skills have to do with anything. If you think being good at basketball means you can evaluate players, then this really is a worthless discussion.

I'm not criticizing Harrison for shooting 36%, I'm merely explaining the difference between average, above average, and elite. You do realize the difference, right? I would hope so.

A-Train's discussion/argument strategy:

1. Make a statement (Harrison is an elite shooter)
2. When someone ask you if 36% shooting is elite, say no 40% is.
3. Insult whoever pointed this out. Either use a past instance he/she was wrong or say they suck at basketball.
 
Take out Andrew Harrison. Nobody said he was a good shooter.

You do realize that Cy said "the Harrisons and Young", therefore implying both of the Harrisons, not one. Reading comprehension buddy.

Anyways, we'll do it your way. 8/19, for about 42%. Again, hard to argue with those results…42% shooting isn't that great, especially when you consider Kentucky shot 50% as a team tonight.

I like Adams, but I would take the potential of the Harrison kid over him. I could easily go either way. Early doesn't do much for me. He's old (I think), and he had a really good tournament, but I just don't see much of a future with him. I suppose he could be like DeMarre Carrol, which is valuable. I could change my mind on him.

Don't like Young at all. Hasn't improved in 4 years, IMO.

You idiot. Take out Andrew because he isn't in the discussion. Why was he in the convo anyway.

Yeah, but 36% is close to 40%…just like late lottery is close to the 20's, so it's like the same thing.

This is like Franklin's argument on Corbin when he said we were basically a .500 team.
