Following potential 2015 draftees

Does anyone remember what was being repeated about Dekker when he decided to return for his Sophomore year??

Correct me if im wrong, but i remember widespread "He's so skilled and talented" "he's a marksman" "makes basketball look easy" "will only get better in college" Seeing his 3pt% dissipate over the next 2 seasons just seems screwy to me.

Didn't Kevin Pelton say that FT % gives a good indication of long term 3pt shooting %?



Dekker's 70% FT shooting doesn't bode well for the future...
 
If both WCS and Myles Turner are there at #12 (a real possibility after DX's latest mock) - who are you guys picking?


Tough decision, but I think for what we need Turner just gets the vote.
That would be a tough one.
Idk who I would pick.

I guess wcs just cause he is supposedly the better prospect according to the experts

I go WCS pretty easily. Way ahead as a defender, and I think he can play with Gobert. Turner has the better shot, but I think WCS is as good or better at everything else. Importantly I think both would be fine with coming off the bench as our 3rd big.

I wouldn't play WCS and Gobert together. Zero offense.
Then again, we could bring back CJ Miles and it wouldn't matter how much he missed. Those guys would get him about 15 shots per possession.

You are kinda limited though if WCS is going to be your 3rd big...


When Gobert sits you have Favors & WCS (not bad)


When Favors sits you have Gobert & WCS (bad floor spacing)


You can say well we have Booker. Well what's the point of having WCS as your solid third big if you're gonna have to fork out extra CA$H to go sign Booker as well? Turner is a much better option for pairing with either Favors or Gobert both defensively and offensively.
 
Or you could grab WCS, then trade back and grab another guy you want & pick up may be another future late 1st?


A solid defensiv Center is pretty well sought after in the NBA.

Can't see Turner/Gobert working any better. Turner cannot defend away from the hoop and probably never will. Much rather hope WCS or Gobert develop some offense, and I feel it's easier to just go elsewhere on offense instead of losing defense.

Cameron Payne anyone? He has been compared to the next Damian Lillard. That would mean we would have to kick Trey to the curb, but that's life.
 
Another notable from DX's new mock is Kelly Oubre's slipping down to #15.



Can't be due to his fantastic workouts everyone's raving about. There must be something from his background/character that doesn't quite check out for NBA teams?????



Who was it that said these things don't matter??? LOL ...
 
Wait, is there actually a very small chance that Justise falls to 12?!?!



Holy ****. I would freak the **** out if he fell to us. Pray, brethren #prayforJustise

WCS is an elite defender all over the floor. Can probably guard most 2 guards he will face.
