Re: Gary Harris
I like him a lot, but he's the guy this year that will be associated with "safe/NBA ready" all draft process, when like everyone there's a legit chance he's neither safe or NBA ready. Still if his 3pt shooting is great in the NBA he'll be a starter

Re: Gary Harris
I love the way he plays and I was really high on him in the beginning of the year.. But Appling really outplays/overshadows him sometimes and it makes me think twice about how good he really is.

Re: Gary Harris
I'm a Michigan fan, and he was great the other night.
He can run off screens really cleverly for a young player, create his own shot, play tough D and shoot the 3. Considering how weak the NBA is at SG, I think he makes sense as a top 10 pick even if he's not the most exciting pick.
Cleveland-Denver-Detroit are picking 8, 9 and 10 as of now, and I think Harris would be a nice starter at SG for any of those teams. Chicago, too, since they'll need a wing and Rose-Harris-Butler-Mirotic/Gibson-Noah and whatever FA they sign with the 7-10 mil available after amnestying Boozer and bringing over Mirotic looks nice.
He's up to 2.2 steals a game (great indicator for the pros), his FT% is up to 81 from 75 and I think his drop in 3PT shooting from 41 to 35 this year is mainly attributable to an injury from what I read (and should climb by the end of the season).
Like Beal or Thompson, he projects as a guy who will never be an all-star, but for the 4 years you get him on his rookie deal, you should get a nice starting quality SG.

Re: Gary Harris
I like the Beal comparison, seems like the two are very similar players.

Harris had a solid debut yesterday in SL hitting 5 threes and dropping in 33 points. He already looks a lot more comfortable taking his man off of the dribble. A lot of teams are going to regret passing on him.

When did he in the half court? Not like blowing past Malcolm Lee is convincing.
