What's new

Following potential 2015 draftees

Giannis is a 5 now?

The hype is a bit too much imo
No. But there were times that he switched to 5's during the season and held up better than expected. I'm not saying that it's his position, just that he can switch to it (when needed) without being totally mismatched and overwhelmed. Ideally, I think he's a 3/4 player who can defend the 2/5 in specific situations. Not many guys have the length or athleticism to do that.

This is in response to how the Warriors have been using Draymond Green at the 5 during their playoff run and playing with 4 wing/guards out of that lineup.

Green, Iguadola, Barnes, Thompson and Curry

I'd say that Giannis, Hayward, Hood, Burks and Exum would matchup fairly well against that lineup. Especially if they used Exum like the Cavs have used Delly to just shadow and harass Curry. It's about the versatility.
 
The freak is good but his hype is out of control.
 
Did Alpha Kaba withdraw from the draft? I saw there were rumors about it and he's not on the Draftexpress mock draft anymore.
 
Draft Express is dumb.

They have Kristaps Porzingis going ahead of D Russell now?

They are on crack over there.

This is Hinkie, it is very likely that he will go with the highest upside pick and I don't think Porzingis is far from that. If all goes right, he might be the best player from this draft. Now, how likely is that is another question.

How many times does that highly ranked overrated European player turn out to be better than the top American phenoms?
 
DRuss is the highest upside player in the draft. A 6'5", better passing, almost as good shooting(even as a ceiling, I don't think you can say a guy will become the best shooter ever) Steph Curry.
