Following potential 2014 draftees

I doubt there will be a single team with Randle ranked above Exum come draft day.

You could have said the same about Wade and Carmelo in relation to Darko back in '03 (and countless others where NBA GMs have played the fool).

Agree with dalamon re: Exum. Guess I was really turned off by his Laker comments. Someone wanting to play in the NBA ought to be saying he'd be happy to be drafted by any team. And wherever he is interviewed, he ought to say: "I want to play in the NBA and obviously it would be a honor to play for team X." IINM, didn't Exum say he would only workout for a couple of specific teams - including LA?

I'm so sick of hearing "BUT DARKOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

I've heard the rumor floated around a lot, but never seen any actual quotes from him.

So what if we win the toss but Boston then jumps to #1? I will burn SLC to the ground. (I wont)

Darko is a glaring example of an unproven foreign player being rated higher than collegiate stars, and the NBA being burned for it, so it fits.

Having said that, you know there are, as I mentioned above, countless other examples of NBA scouts and GMs making egregious errors in judgment on their respective boards.

The point: the argument that no GM has Randle rated higher than Exum is just stupid.

Sorry, just being honest!

If Corbin were a GM, he would have Randle ranked higher than Exum.

Here is the link I found talking about Exum and his comments on the Laker thing.

Fallacy by analogy. Look it up.

Last year they released the drawing between 4:30 and 5:00 EST. They'll probably do the same this year.
