Yuck.
Double yuck.
Yuck.
How is Henry much different than CJ? We don't have a year of CJ's college stats to compare, but look at the similarities at the same age: Same body, same athleticism, both lefty shooters with raw offensive games heavily reliant on their jumpshots.
At KU, Henry took 354 shots, 164 of which were 3's. That's roughly 50/50. He got to the line 3 times a game which really isn't bad for college and the minutes he played, but doesn't suggest a very dynamic game at this point. His rebounding was impressive, however. And his other numbers were solid.
My point is not that he isn't a good player. I think he is. And I wouldn't mind adding another CJ to the team. But I'd bet the guy is 2 years away from being anything other than a gunner.
Cali, you're familiar with Paul George right? Thoughts?
There just Locke's and other people's opinions but the more and more I hear is everyone outside of the top 5 is weak. Whiteside doesn't care and is way to skinny. Aldrich is like Ostertag and has no upside. monroe is too soft and doesn't play much D. Orton is too big of a take in the lottey considering he averaged 3 and 3. Udoh might be the only one people haven't critiqued but may be gone before the Jazz select. So my point is would you try and trade down and get more picks or select a wing like Henry or paul George? Do you trade up and get Favors, Cousins or Wes Johnson??
