Following potential 2014 draftees

I'd say he's a PF stuck in a SF's body.

I don't love the guy, and I agree he isn't a great fit with our current group, but he IS very talented and athletic. If he's BPA, you take him.

Draft another player who can't accept his true position? Does this team need another power forward? Listen I get the BPA talk but doesn't that only apply when you know you are getting a franchise changing type player? My question is to you if we are draft Aaron Gordon is he better than Derrick Favors or Enes Kanter?
 
the thing with Gordon is if you draft him then you look trade trade okur for either a stretch 4 or 5. then Gordon posts up 3s where he would dominate.

Ya but who wants okur
 
I guess you have to take him at a certain point, but derrick williams has soured me on gordon and I have not even seen gordon play yet.

Is the derrick williams comp something to really worry about or is that a bad comp

I would take all comps with a grain of salt, obvi. You could compare him to Griffin just as easily as you could Derrick Williams.

He's a guy I don't think anyone has totally figured out (more so than with your average prospect).
 
It was hard for me to evaluate Vonleh today cuz Inidana refused to give him the ball. ****ing ridiculous mayne

derrick williams was a classic tweener - 6ft 7 1/4 barefoot. 34.5 vertical was ok. blake was measured at 6ft 8 1/2 barefoot. his combine hops were low, but based on his dunks, he probably has 38 inch vert.

aaron gordon may just be a decent 3rd option in the future, but i think he got the size down for sure. he can easily gain 25lb within first 2 years in nba and will actually improve his overall athleticism. i would be highly surprised if he gets measured 6ft 7 1/4 like williams. that would be disappointing and i wouldn't want him if he is not even full 6ft 8.
 
Any y'all watch dat Vonleh today? He's an interesting player. If he puts in the work and continues to improve he's got a very high ceiling
 
anyway anthony bennett is 6ft 7 with his shoe on. lol yes, larry johnson was tad under 6ft 5, but at least grand mama could jump out of the roof.
 
Vonleh is a bit of a tweener height-wise, but I think he's athletic enough to play either the three or four depending on how his skills develop
 
with 6ft 7 1/2 tristian thompson
hi-res-182599951-tristan-thompson-and-anthony-bennett-of-the-cleveland_crop_650x440.jpg


so basically anthony bennett is 6ft 5 1/2-6ft 5 3/4 at best, yet he is listed at 6ft8. only in NBA. lol

i'm just weary of tweeners. beasley was measured at 6ft 7.

i've seen a little, couldn't really tell his game yet. i'll be watching him a lot down the road
