Following potential 2014 draftees

[darthlarryboy]

There's a wide variation among the draft boards. nbadraft.net had him right after McDermott at #16.

Yep nbadraft.net is a lot different. I'm not a fan of them, but I do like that the teams are on there. I'd take Aaron Gordon at 20 on that draft board.

So pumped that the 14' draft hype is justified and then some.

We just need a top 5 pick.

Think he'll still be on the board when the GS pick comes up?

With Iggy out indefinately, Curry on and off with various minor injuries and Toney Douglas out I see them losing a couple games in the next month. That will probably hurt them a little. THough the boredom called underwhelming east is making it possible that a 8th best West record is 10th best in the league ^^

I think someone like Vonleh would be a great pick in that range. The draft is so deep that there will be quite a few players dropping or moving up. Lindsey showed us with Gobert and Neto that he has an eye for the intermediate talent. Let's hope he makes a Gobert-esque find in 2014.

I'll have to watch some Indiana I think. I liked his highschool stuff a lot. Not superstar a lot, but impact player lot.
And Gobert wasn't a intermediate find. During most of last year Gobert was a top5 pick on DX with Cody leading the pack. So if anything his stock fell as indicated in his interviews that he bumped heads with his coach in France who didn't let him groom.

From DraftExpress Mock 13-25. If I had my pick and since I would have to trade up to get McDermott, I'd go after Saric at 13. Realistically from 18-22, I'm picking Young. At this point anyway.

13 Dario Saric SF
19 years old; 6'10"; 223 lbs.
14 Doug McDermott PF
21 years old; 6'8"; 223 lbs.
15 Andrew Harrison PG
19 years old; 6'5"; 207 lbs.
16 Adreian Payne PF/C
22 years old; 6'9"; 215 lbs.
17 Isaiah Austin C
20 years old; 7'1"; 220 lbs.
18 Mitch McGary C
21 years old; 6'10"; 263 lbs.
19 James Young SF
18 years old; 6'7"; 202 lbs.
20 Jahii Carson PG
21 years old; 5'11"; 167 lbs.
21 Spencer Dinwiddie SG
20 years old; 6'6"; 200 lbs.
22 James McAdoo PF
20 years old; 6'9"; 226 lbs.
23 T.J. Warren SF
20 years old; 6'8"; 230 lbs.
24 Semaj Christon PG
21 years old; 6'3"; 187 lbs.
25 Sam Dekker SF
19 years old; 6'7"; 200 lbs.

I wouldn't take a mock before mid december serious in any way.

James Young at 19.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

They say themselves that they are incomplete. Just wait a couple weeks and you'll get a more accurate one.

I'd say Andrew Harrison is the only one not living up to the hype. Hopefully he turns up the heat soon.

maybe he will fall to the GSW pick

 

[Dr. Jones]

Andrew won't fall that far. This team is starting 5 freshman and Cal's PGs always have a very steep learning curve and start slow. All of them... and none have ever had to start with an all-frosh team.

I'm not certain what Andrew is or isn't yet (as for projecting) but I am certain his best days of the season are ahead.
Young is who I'm watching.. not sure what his draft stock will do, but I'm seeing a top8/9 player right now... thankfully somewhat hidden by having to share the ball a lot.

There is a good chance the GSW pick with be in the teens if the injurys keep biting them.

Been loving Young all a long but i agree top 10 for sure

If Young is available at 19 and the Jazz don't use their GS pick on him I will freak'n screaaamm!!!!!!!!! I really think the Jazz are going to get a star and a very good player out of this draft. I would be fine with McDermott between 18 and 22. From all accounts he was a surprise at the NBA Olympic practices. It is painfully obvious that the Jazz need shooters.
