      i just saw nbadraft.net has 2 UNLV guys going in the draft...and they left out the best of the 3 possible NBA players lol.. not to mention i doubt they get much thought from scouts since the team will be losing alot

        Marcus Smart is trying to throw his name in there for a top 3 pick. Had 39 points tonight and looked like his shot was much improved. Big big dude. I hope this draft class is the goods.

        Aaron Gordon has also been showing that his athleticism has transferred directly from high school to college. My God he's a freak of nature.

          I wasn't big on him last year. I didn't see what made everyone think he was so good. Now he got jump shot. He looks a lot better. I'd like to see him run more offense if he is going to be PG at the next level. He would be huge (literally) point guard at the next level.

          Also like to ask. Who does he remind you of? I've seen 3 different comparisons. Harden, Wade and (bigger) Rose.

          edit: the other guy who we should keep an eye is Rodney Hood. He's pretty... I'd enter my name in draft if I we're him lol.

            I'm still a bit skeptical on Smart. Gotta love the heart he brings to the game, and the defensive ability. But I don't think he'll ever be more than an average shooter, and he isn't much in terms of point guard skills from an NBA perspective.

              Also, starting to understand all the love around Joel Embiid. He could end up being the best player in this year's class when it's all said and done.

                Smart doesn't remind me of any of those guys (Rose, Harden, Wade). They are all much more explosive athletes (even Harden who had/has one of the highest verts when running). Physically he remind me of Lance Stephensen. A big & strong kid that's explosive enough to get his shot off but will never be a dominant player. Obviously Smart looks further along mentally from a maturity standpoint.

                  I honestly never trust these types of prospects. I'd stay away if I had a lottery pick TBH

                    smart is clearly the best guard in the draft in my eyes.

                    he gets it mentally, and shows maturity on/off the court of a 10 year vet.

                    with an added jump shot he would scare the living daylight out of me if i was an opposing coach in college right now. he may be the best defensive PG or guard in general as-well

                    id actually take him over wiggins because a good point guard is much more valuable than a "project" SF

                      I don't know if I would go that far and I'd take Smart over Wiggins. I would take Parker over Wiggins. But I'm still not sold on Smart.

                        Just crazy that he just started playing like 2 years ago.

                            This might sound a little racist. He kind of reminds me of the The Dream. That's a huge thing for me to say. But it kind of looks like the way he played when he was on Houston. Maybe even Tim Duncan like.

                              Man is this draft loaded. Why again did my Pelicans trade this year pick.
