What's new

Following potential 2014 draftees

Yeah his talent is there, so I'd also rank him way higher. And a questionable character hasn't made teams shy away from players in the past and won't do it in the future probably. I just wanted to highlight his options. If he doesn't end up playing 1st league ball and has no buyout clause that teams can shoulder($575k max at the moment) he'll probably won't declare. The difference between a #15-20 pick and a 3-7 the following year in finances is immense.

I think he'd go 11/12'ish... so who knows.

The 15-20 was more in case, he doesn't get playing time because he's not good enough yet in the 1st league or only plays 2nd league. If he got a strong year he's prolly more like 8 even next year.
 
I don't think Exum is a sure thing, but if he tightens his handle and keeps improving his perimeter game, he could be a great complement to Favors and Kanter. He'd be like the Penny Hardaway playing off of Shaq in Orlando.

I'm not seeing superstar with him though. Solid player, but not powerful or explosive enough yet to be a go-to scorer.

agree with every word
 
You know, it's early, but Aaron Gordon actually reminds me a bit of Grant Hill in terms of athleticism and physicality. Not sure if Gordon has the intangibles and IQ yet.

You're normally dead on, but, imo.. that is a dreadfully horrid comparison. lol

I for one like what I have seen of gordon.

I think a poor mans griffin is still a fair assessment at this point though.
