Dennis Schroeder keeps moving up from all the rankings and mock drafts I've seen.

Len taking over the top spot is a little surprising.



Random thought: I wonder if guys like Hibbert (comparative to Len) and Tony Parker (comparative to Schroeder) being dominate in the playoffs are pushing these guys up?

I'm thinking if that would effect anything it'd effect the mock drafts, not the top 100 boards. Not sure if this is related to the top 100 or not but here's a tweet from one of the guys at DX suggesting they recently analyzed more data.

Finished gathering situational data on the PG/SG prospects in our top-100. Most efficient scorers: Seth Curry, Oladipo, McCollum, McLemore.

There is somthing to this statement that seems right.
Hibbert falling to 17th still doesn't make sense. He was very good in college and is a huge body. Seems to improve every year. How was he not drafted higher

Scouts don't like Senior big men who doesn't rebound well and doesn't shoot well at the FT line. He was said to lack a ceiling and didn't do anything at an elite level. I think he finally took his craft seriously after his early struggles in the league. Definitely a better player than a lot of people thought.

I don't follow college much so this is just a guess. In the past few years he's finally become an adequate rebounder, but prior to that he was terrible for someone with his size advantage. He only averaged 6.4 boards in 26 minutes his last year in college which seems pretty terrible considering his size advantage would be even greater in the NCAA.

I don't think he's a great rebounder. Look at some of the stats when he played against top competition, there are more pedestrian rebounding numbers than I'd like to see from a top prospect.

Roy Hibbert is 7'2" 280. Think about that.

He should be dominating the game. He's not even a top 10 center

Forgot where I saw it (it was on a legit site, not a forum or anything), but there was a rumor about a week ago that Cleveland was considering Len over Noel. I'm getting more confident that Porter or maybe even McLemore will be there at 6.

Saw a rumor today that Cleveland is thinking about McLemore at #1. They either don't know who they're going to pick or they are trying to convince someone to trade up.

I doubt they do it, but that would be my pick if I was Cleveland.

Mclemore and his shooting stroke would be perfect playing off the more ball dominant Irving. Then you bring Waiters off the bench as a scoring 6th man, like he was at Syracuse.

Hibbert just looks like a guy that will end being a better pro than college player. He was good at Georgetown but not some dominant force.

He was ridiculously out of shape and would get winded with just a couple trips up and down the floor. He was also a stiff defensively, couldn't move his feet although he'd run into a few blocks per game based on his length. He moved around the way you'd figure a 7'2" guy would...not very well. He's just done a great job getting himself in great shape and working on his post game.

This probably doesnt deserve a thread, so ill put it here.

Trey Burke's private workout with the Kings. At one point Mike Malone looks back at him like "Holy shite!"

Despite all the rumors and specualtion and people falling in love with a new guy every week, i've never wavered from Burke. He's the guy i want. The guy just has "it"

Also confirms that we're his next visit
