2012 and 2013 are going to have some amazing talent! We all know about the 2012 class, but here are a few players that blew me away this morning.
Shabazz Mohammad- Legit 6-6 shooting guard. I have spoken about him before and have the luxury of watching him grow up. This kid is the real deal His elevation is lightning quick and he get to the hole with ease. In todays game against the Atlanta Celtics he single handedly lead back the dreamvison with about 5 minutes to go. He has great midrange game and showed the ability to drill the three pretty well today. He is being compared to Kobe by some sites and while he has alot to improve on, he could become an excellent pro. Hiiting the three has never really been a strength of his, but today he stroked it well. If he can do it consistently sky is the limit.
Jordan Adams- 6-5 shooting guard with a solid build. Commited to UCLA Holy **** can this guy stroke it! this was my first time seeing him and he shot over and thru multiple defenders. He also nailed a few step back 3's. Range is not going to be a problem for him. He did not appear overly athletic. I would compare him to a JR Smith with a solid head on his shoulders. This guy is defenitly on my watch list.
Shaq Goodwin- 6-8 PF. Yep. There are now teenagers named Shaq. Dude is undersized, but absolute beast with range to 18 feet. Very athletic. Runs real hard and has a knack for snatching up boards. If he can grow a few more inches he could be a star. In one sequence he grabed 5 O-boards cleared out the last with a drop step that shook the Gym. Unbelievable power and finness.
Andre Drummond 6-10 250 or so pure muscle. A man among boys. This kid is on same path as other super freak bigs like a Favors, Amare, Dwight. It was scary watching him play against some of these kids. As much as I love Shabazz I cant see why this guy would not be the obvious number one pick. I think he can be a legit center in the league. He has guard skills. He drove many times from 15 feet out and just elevates over everyone. He had a really good defensive presence with many altered shots and at least 5 huge swats. He went against another 5 star, Isiah Austin and dominated.
I cant find the box scores, but will post once I can locate.
I would love to see the Jazz struggle for two more years as the team gels and grows together. If the Jazz can get two picks from 2012 and add another lottery in 2013, we can be dangerous for along time. 2012 and 2013 are going to feature some of the best players to come out in back to back years in a very long time. two more years of maturing this team and grabbing lottery picks in the process will set us up for an amazingly bright future.
