Following potential 2015 draftees

I still like Turner and Portis ahead of Kaminsky. I'm afraid players will just run by Kaminsky and he won't be able to keep up defensively.

The point locke made was players that dont produce in their first two years dont make good nba players. Hood was good. Frank was not.

He didn't play much so it's hard to say he didn't produce. He was behind a couple juniors his freshman year and then the same guys as a sophomore.

I'd love to see the numbers behind lockes statement... Basically the draft has a lot of luck to it... Kelly olynyk was terrible his first two years and took a year off... Came back for his 4th year and was pretty dang good. He's flawed but he's a really good third big right now. Frank will absolutely be better than him.

For every senior that busts I can find 5 freshman/sophomores with upside that bust.
 
How could anyone want Stephen Curry? He's not a PG, short for a SG, short arms, old, not a good defensive player. BEWARE TO ANYONR THAT WANTS 2 DARFT HIM.
 
Seniors who have had their stock shot because of age is one of the great market inefficiencies in talent acquisition. Cash in.

Kaminsky is faster than turner laterally.

How could that be? Everything is binary and nothing dynamic and nuanced in the world. Either you are just good or bad at all defense, right? Everything is length and "athleticism". Effort, savvy, and skill are worthless attributes. How could a 22 year possibly have any room to grow?

Again... When the main argument against a player starts with their age and not their skill, size, athleticism not sure that you've done enough homework.

Frank also led two... Two great final four runs. You guys can sleep on Frank all u want but his teams won and a lot if it was because of him.

And he did that within the poor spacing of college ball. From what I've seen, he'll get better with more space.

I'd be happy with Frank.
 
Every analytics model that accounts for age loves Frank which is really rare. I like Locke and think he's great to have as an insider but I wouldn't trust him on Frank. I'm not even sure he's watched him... He hates college basketball.

Just imagine him setting ball screens in the horns sets... Can shoot pass or drive... Big sticks with him and it creates lanes for Hayward, Burks, and hood. Big switches Frank hits the jumper... They bring an extra defender he passes to the open man.
