Nice late game between Stanford and Oregon State.

Joe Burton is a skilled dude offensively, wish he had an NBA body because he is fun to watch. Eric Moreland is definitely gonna be an interesting prospect. NBA length, athleticism, rebounding, and shot blocking ability. But is turning 22 and is a skinny guy.

Today was my first Dwight Powell game and I can already say I'd like him as our pick. Fluid moving athletic big man with a good jumper, 78% FT shooter, and 44% 3pt (only around 1 attempt per game though). Have to see more games but his handle looked nice for a 6'9-6'10 guy.

Josh Huestis reminds me of Fields alil.

This is awesome...Radio Announcer doing play by play calls a ref's call cheap foul...the ref comes over the argue with him while he's on the air and he shuts dude down.

A mock draft has us picking him in the first round.

What do you guys think of Jack Cooly or Alex Oriakhi as a mid to late second round pick? Both guys could really help us on the boards imo and could easily be had if we want either of them.

He'd be a bit of a reach first round imo because i think there will be some better wing players and bigs available. But he's a crazy good shooter and I'd be fine with taking a shot on him if we had a second rounder early to mid.

I like the idea of getting a late second to sang one of them, Oriakhi is my favorite of the two.

Otto Porter just introduced himself to the rest of the country. Top 5 pick.

Otto Porter’s the best player in the country man..smh 33 (12-19) 8 boards 5 steals 2 assts 1 TO @ Syracuse..

Nobody does it on both ends like he does, he made 12 of Gtown’s 19 fg’s. He’s quietly been doing it all year though.. Monster

Kendall Williams with 10 treys and 46 points...

Watched a little bit of Wolters VS Canaan... after Wolters took the fall on his back... Canaan looked quick and strong.. really nice handle.. can shoot. Wolters has nice size.. long arms.. moved good and looks like a tremendous shooter.. didn't get to see much playmaking though since it was just a few minutes.

i haven't watched solters player (only read a bit about him), but does he remind anyone of bobby sura? 6'5 200 pg/sg -- used to play for the rockets? they have similar frames, sizes, and a similar skill set (from what i've read) - with solters being a more talented player.

*again, i have not seen him*

Solters is a better scorer... longer arms... they're similar defensively with Sura being maybe a little bit more agile from side to side.. I was impressed with Solters lateral movement.. it's a shame I only saw him after the fall which was brutal.. he was playing with a hurt back and still was their only real scoring threat. I think Solters can definitely play in the NBA mostly because physically he's a little unique.. I wonder what his wingspan is. Like I said I didn't see his PG skills with regards to passing and playmaking. Canaan is really good too... NBA range.. strong... quick... I liked his handles too.

wolters' height in sneakers is apparently 6'4 and his wingspan is 6'3.5. kinda disappointing. i might watch some youtube clips of him when i get bored. haven't watched all that much college basketball this year...too busy

http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/Nate-Wolters-6480/

there's the site, btw. a nice write-up on him from november.

Damn that's strange I was obviously tripping.. must've just been his size... maybe a long torso? Nice size though... The youtube stuff is going to be really poor quality because of the school he plays at.

Another surprise is that he shot 41% from three as a soph but only 24% as a junior. But this year he's back up to 41%.

Damn he was the reason they beat the Lobos this year which when I saw the score was like WTF? He dropped 28, 7A and 5R.. UNM is pretty good though.. so that's a good mark for him.
