but Bellinelli's Euro highlights make him look like Kobe.



I know, it's my main concern about him, but he looks more impressive than Beli did. Watching the highlights you see why Chad Ford did his sensationalistic "Next Magic Johnson" headline.

Have you watched any highlights of the kid? He looks really impressive blowing by euros. IF that part of his penetration game translates to the NBA he will put pressure on the defense from the perimeter even without an outside shot. He wouldn't be an offensive liability like Aminu is.


I have watched his highlights, and I agree that his ball-handling is really good for a guy that size. But I still don't want him. I think it's too hard to consistently beat quality NBA defenses when they're just blatantly ignoring one of your perimeter players.

There is no way in flipping hell that Burke is less athletic than Vasquez. Ridiculous garbage.

Saric

Not liking much of what I'm hearing regarding the draft this year. Where there's smoke, there's fire.

Saric isn't that bad of a shooter. He is streaky, but the kid can still knock down some outside shots in bunches. I'd expect his consistency to improve as he gets older.

I'd rather his upside at 6 than someone like Burke. All that being said, Saric might not even be in this draft the way he's been talking lately.
