ok pkm need some feed back on those guys
Following potential 2014 draftees
- Thread starter Dr. Jones
- Start date
I have just been talking about him so much lately that I forgot to include him. I agree with what Hant said.. except I will simply say it will be a game-by-game match up thing. I think he can play either position equally as well. Here's a bold early prediction. Parker to be all-American as a freshman (rarely ever happens) and will be ROY in the NBA.
PF.
I think he's a PF.. I've watched him in about 40 games. I really don't see him playing a lot of minutes at SF.. a few, sure.
james young is some one I am watching. he has a sweet looking shot.
mods please sticky this
James Young can be a killer SG.... but too thin/weak to play SF, imo..
Agree with your list other than to say Vonleh is a PF and Young is a SG.

Ahem...............
Hantlers just basically plagiarized me. I knew you two had a thing for each other.
I rep you all the time. I've hated hantlers lately.. was just repping him for being a solid citizen.
Cry harder.

Oh, and I can see the Paul Pierce to Parker comparison...but there's a better one out there.
First off, Parker is bigger than Pierce. He's 6'8 with like a 7'0 wingspan if I remember correctly. He's more like a Carmelo that will actually try on defense and pass the ball. Parker is a better talent than Pierce is/was. Also, take this for what it's worth, but apparently he held his own going 1-on-1 against KD at the KD Skills Challenge. I want Parker on this team bad...really bad. The NBA owes it to us to give us a Mormon superstar after the whole MJ thing.

that vonleh being a pf kind of burst my bubble. it is going to be kind of hard to get that impact 3 next year, unless we get a top 3 pick. Parker is #2 target wiggins being #1.
I want UK to have a monster year so all their players shoot up the draft board. actually undefeated would be nice.
watching vonleh video he reminds me of a young Kevin Garnett. I don't think he has the motor of Garnett though. Garnett started his nba career playing the 3

Wanna hear a shocker?
If I'm the Utah Jazz and I have the #1 pick...I don't take Wiggins.
Don't get me wrong, Wiggins is a great, great talent. Much more athletic than Parker....and that's it. I prefer players with a complete game and the ability to get it done, even when the refs aren't calling fouls.
So yeah, I'll go into more detail later, but as of right now, Parker is who I take #1 if I'm the Utah Jazz.
