 | re: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope - That's BS on 5/24/13 at 10:35 am
I'd definitely prefer him over Bennett, Len, or Saric. Even over Noel to be honest, but just b/c I'm not high on him at all. We already have a long, lean shot blocker, but ours can play on the offensive end too.
I'd like KCP, McCollum, and Burke all about the same. ...

Agree with all except the ability to get to the rim and finish. Of course, my knowledge of him is limited to the draftexpress scouting video and that is what they listed as one of his weaknesses. He's a high flyer in the open court, but doesn't play above the rim when he drives through the defense...

Yeah, you're right. I guess I meant where his "draft stock" is now that there will likely be presumed better players available at 6. But with good workouts he could impress the FO and if they like him at 6, I like him ...

| re: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope - That's BS on 5/24/13 at 9:17 am
Watched the draftexpress video on him last night after I saw someone talking about him on PR. If he can learn to just OCCASIONALLY drive to the hole and finish, he could be a 20 ppg scorer easily. And he has pretty good defensive potential with his quick hands. And he's a good rebounder. Could pl...

He'll likely win ROY IMHO FWIW IYKWIM, similar to Lillard in that he's a 4 yr college guy and his game has developed more making him more ready to contribute as a rookie. The question is who will be the better player in about 4 years when we have to start thinking about that 2nd contract?

| re: Who is more serviceable for next year Lopez or Vasquez? - That's BS on 5/22/13 at 9:30 pm
I'd say GV is more serviceable to our team b/c he can play more positions of need. Lopez is relegated to C, but GV played some SG and even some SF at times to go along with his primary position of PG. That means we can hide him defensively a little better by putting him on the worst perimeter playe...

[quote]Ok, that's fine then. I don't watch college ball but I've read enough here on him to feel that he won't be a piece to build around.

Do you think he would be a defensive liability against 4's or against 3's?[/quote]
I think both. With him it looks like he has no desire to play defense. Complete lack of effort. To be a good defender, you have to want to b...

| re: NBAdraft.net updated mock draft - That's BS on 5/22/13 at 9:26 am
Maybe it was just the few videos I saw of him, but was not impressed with much other than his hustle and passing...and ball-handling for someone his size. I think he'll get pushed around a lot and doesn't have the body to fill out too much more. His shot was average at best and he really needs to w...

| re: Is Trey Burke = Jarvis Jones? - That's BS on 5/22/13 at 9:03 am
If the front office is happy with where Rivers is, I could see this I guess. I just think we should target BPA at any position other than PF. And at 6, the only SF I would like there is Porter if he falls. So that leaves C, PG, or SG. Even if they are happy with Rivers, if they really like Burke...
