What's new

Following potential 2014 draftees

I have spent the evening looking at exum video and this is what I think. (pkm will not agree)

if exum is not a pg most of the time he is not a 10 pick. he doesn't have the athletism to play the 2 guard effectively not to mention his shot is a little shaky. if he is a pg more then he is a top 5 pick.

flame away

ps

if I was exums agent I would have him over in the states when school gets out working full time at one of the big gyms. dude needs some muscle.
 
Agree, Jako. The only reason he's top 10 is the potential of him being at least a combo.
Frankly, I don't really see it. He seems more like a SF to me, tbh. Obvi agent is promoting him for draft stock.
 
Aaron and James are very good. Alex probably shouldn't be there. At one point a couple years ago he actually hit the #1 spot in the mocks. He has the size and athleticism to be very good.. not to mention a very very smart kid (4.0). But he has ZERO killer instinct. None. Too passive and a waste of talent with regard to playing bb.

Marvin Williams.

actually I think poythress would be a good 7th or 8th man on a team. he can back up the 3 and the 4 but he needs to an alpha male or 2 ahead of him. if the jazz get Parker poythress is useless to us if we get a guard or wing he comes into play with the gsw pick. I like others over him but in the 20s could be a good get.
 
I still covet Parker and young but if young is gone then Aaron is very interesting. I wonder if Aaron and alec could play together on the second team?
 
I agree on Poythress. No real opinion on Exum, since I've seen him play zero times.

However, the more I read/watch (read: mixtapes on youtube) of James Young, the more intrigued I am. Obviously, we need an alpha, go-to, top-flight scorer out of this draft and he strikes me as one of 4-5 guys who fit that mold.

From the looks of it, he can really shoot it, he's aggressive, he can create his own offense and looks like's simply wired to score. I'm really excited to watch him play this season.

PKM, correct me if I'm wrong, what are your thoughts on him as part of our 2014 lineup?
