Following potential 2014 draftees

I didn't say that. I just said whomever it was. If you said it first, awesome!

Yep pretty sure it was. It was either Core 4 or me, but I don't think Core 4 wants that kind of accolades, so I'll take it with both hands.

Only possible way when accepting it from me.

Does that mean it's too big for an Asian condom?


Welcome to the club.

Sort of..

The twins were re-measured today. Both 6'6 and 220 (only 2lbs difference between them).

If true, that's not only elite PG size, but much better SG size as well.

They were 6'5 with shoes at the hoop summit this spring. While at their age they may still grow, I'm not taking measurements for granted from someone affiliated with the NCAA. That organisation is more corrupt and has more angles than a Vietnamese police patrol.
So I'll go with 6'3.5 w/o shoes and 6'5 in high heels until draft measurements.

Spoke with another guy that was at practice yesterday and today. He said Young is going to be excellent, a prolific scorer and an incredible defender. He said Andrew Harrison is just too big and strong for most PG's to guard, makes split second pin-point passes, and is also an above-average 3pt shooter. WCS developing a very nice sky hook.. which makes the sky the limit for him(fixed) Randle was just more of the same we've heard from everyone else.

How high do you think are the chances that Young stays two years to polish his game and not fall low in lottery? I've been high on him since I saw him ball the first time.
His high school stats were impressive as well.

Wow.. 6'6 is legit size for a PG... If he's quick on his feet as well, he should be a pretty good defender at the point.

I really have no idea at this point. Need to see how the season unfolds. An uneducated guess at this point... 20% chance Young returns to school.

He won't be a defnsive liability. He has no major flaws to his game. Question is only how elite he will be as a cerebral floor general. I suspect he'll be a top 5 NBA pg within 5 years.

Top 5 is a lot to ask I think.
5 years from now 4 of the top 5 PGs are probably CP3, Westbrook, Rose and Irving. If he's the fifth he'd leave Wall, Williams(age 34, but I can imagine him developing post skills), Holiday and Steph Curry behind him. That's big shoes to fill. Lillard, Rubio and Rondo might be in conversation as well depending on how their careers develop.

Top 5'esque??



Was more just saying I think he becomes an elite PG and will enjoy an era that realized the PG drought after a few guys now are in their twilights.

Don't back down to BTP. Stand your ground.

While I don't see many PGs in their twilights when you think positive and expect guys to bounce back from injuries, I definately think Harrison and smart will blend right in.
