OK, let’s get this out of the way. Enes Kanter is like having a spoiler on a John Deere tractor.

lol

sbnation has a giant free agent article on their site. Here's their scouting report for Kanter...

"Reverse Ben Wallace. A brilliant post scorer who couldn’t stop traffic with a red light, a cop car or a barricade. You remember Yi Jianlian’s epic workout against a La-Z-Boy? That was actually Enes Kanter disguised as a chair."

I doubt it... their timetable is different. They should be trying for contention the season Cousins' contract will be expiring. I don't see it. If I were the Wolves, I'd be building around the two No. 1 picks. They will have 8 years of Towns + Wiggins... I don't think I'd sell that for 3 years in which the team probably won't be good enough to contend, after which he'd probably just leave.

What if they could get Ty Lawson, too?(Garnet+future first) Remember the Twolves haven't made the playoffs in a long time. They gotta be getting antsy.

I agree that it is unlikely but the pups can't afford for Towns to not work out. They can't afford another decade of being in the lotto. I could see them shooting for the stars.

Just got the measurements for @kporzee from @impactbball! 7'1.25" w/out shoes, 7'6 wingspan, 230 lbs. Longest wingspan in the draft.

Freak!! He's a good inch taller than Gobert.

I really have no idea what's going to happen. Perrin and Lindsey are so good at not leaking anything. Some people say Utah loves some players, then another writer or radio person says they don't. I've heard Utah likes Hezonja, and Andy Larsen said on his last podcast that they don't like Hezonja (He does this pretty often, saying that his "sources" tell him something and then doesn't expand on it). There's been so much talk about Utah not moving up, that it makes me think they are going to move up. Or is that what they want me to think... Can't wait until Thursday :)

It's generally smart to comment on your sources statements yourself instead of quoting the source. Smart ppl could narrow it down or recognize certain phrases that are typical for a person's way of speaking.
If they're doing stuff like that already to comprehend which employee leaks intel, I bet direct quotes is info that's either permitted/ordered to be used or the GM himself.

At the same time though try to go somewhere on the internet and post bizarre creative player comparisons and people are sure to fight you tooth and nail over it. Just look at NBAdraft.net their infamous for those player comps. There's some doozies on the DX page too. I like doing the rich man's poor mans cop out, Malik Newman next year reminds me of a Rich mans Jerryd Bayless.

My player comparison for Cam Payne might very well be "If Lou Williams was a good PG" Lillard is clearly more explosive, not crazy about that one.

My comparison is Brandon Jennings with defensive upside. One handed streaky shooter who can't finish around the rim but has good court vision and ballhandling, yet is likely to turn it over because of a tendency to make too flashy plays.

Even if they are inflated a little bit. That's still huge. Really interested how he'll develop his first years. If he can put on weight to defend inside or if he's fast enough to defend the perimeter.

I wish he wasn't such a numb nut because we actually have the pieces to put together a nice package to get him.

I have said sooooo many times that if you want a great version of Cousins you need either a strong/smart/charismatic coach or the same in a PG. We have one of those.
I personally know Boogie and I would be ecstatic to see Cousins on the Jazz.

Thabeet sized... he's actually 1/4 inch taller than Hasheem, and he's a 19 y/o PF...

How crazy would it be to have him Rudy and Favors, they'd block out the sun.

This George Karl and DeMarcus Cousins story is outrageous, someone's going to get ripped off really bad in that deal if it goes down 3 ways. Vivek's ownership seems like its still stumbling out of the gate going into its second year. Reading about Shareef Abur-Rahim quitting last year on draft night becase they didn't take Elfrid Payton is too funny. Once again, this totally seems like amateur hour.

He was still playing????????
 
There is some degree of fishiness that it's the gym he is paying to workout in that is reporting the numbers.

Wouldn't they have incentive to fluff his #'s to make him look bigger?
