Re: 2014 Draft Class

I think people are missing the big picture of why he went to Duke along with his friend Jahil coming. If he comes back people will act like it's the end of the world .

Dude, what are you talking about lol

You asked did people have him coming out. I was just explaining that me personally I never viewed him as a 1 and done.

Re: 2014 Draft Class

Looks like young JR Smith. Hopefully someone gets him in the draft that can temper/erase his bad habits before they permanently set in.

Re: 2014 Draft Class

If Embiid's back gets cleared by doctor's I think he'll go in the top 2. Jabari could still slip to 4 if Exum kills it in workouts IMO, but who knows?

Sidenote: In Chad Ford's weekly chat, he said that Ennis is a better prospect than Trey Burke was a year ago. I just don't get it lol. I really hope he pans out, but I can't understand that kind of hype being around him.

I don't see it. Burke is/was a better athlete and a much better scorer than Ennis. Not as big of a defensive liability as well.

I don't think you'll know if Tyler is a good enough defensive player until you see him in the setting.

[Yeah...THAT Guy]

Eh, I feel like you can tell. He was a turnstile at the top of the zone. If you can't keep people in front of you while playing zone defense, you're probably going to struggle when you have to chase them around the court too.

^ What he said. You can tell Ennis is not a good defender from watching Syracuse's games. He was hidden in a zone. I've seen people try and say he was a good defender because he averaged like 2 steals a game which is hilariously dumb.

Re: 2014 Draft Class

If Utah could get Wiggins, Parker, or Exum, that'd be greaaat. Maybe swoop up a shooter late in the 1st with GSW's pick like Dougie or Stauskas.

Re: 2014 Draft Class

Want us to get Exum. Then again with the unknown of who's going to be our coach and how are free agency would be I don't know. Should be an exciting off-season.

Re: 2014 Draft Class

Where do people see guys like Willie Cauley-Stein, Jusuf Nurkic ending up in terms of draft position? And what's their projected peak in the NBA?

[Caveman24]

Re: 2014 Draft Class

WCS will go probably late 1st. He might I said might sneak in top 15-20 due to NBA obsession with finding the next "big man". I think he's exactly how DeAndre Jordan was when he came out of Texas A&M.Just raw but needs time to develop. I think at least in 2-3 years WCS can be an defensive blue collar guy.

Re: 2014 Draft Class

WCS returning to UK so there's that.

Good decision IMO for him. He has more to gain than lose by coming back.

Re: 2014 Draft Class

Just hope he doesn't get hurt again.. Don't want red flags heading into the league.. He might raise his draft stock by returning, but also I think he can be an instant role player off the bench now.. So kinda strange to see him stay.
