I'm convinced that Rex is a HUGE Kentucky fan. Not only does he hate Kaminsky as a prospect he also hates him as a person. He's sees Kaminsky as the worlds biggest Douchebag.

I also think that Stanley Johnson is getting too many suspicious votes and should be disqualified from the poll. Namely that insane poster from Russia who's banned numerous times in the past. He clearly has an access to multiple IP addresses.

People are just scared of Euros.

I think a lot of voters Aren't aware that Mario Hezo played for a Barcelona team that is top 3 in all of Europe and would smoke the best NCAA teams.

Anyway Stanley is a good pick too, he's my #2.

BTW Results can still change, it's an open poll so anyone can change his vote at any time by clicking on another option and then clicking "submit vote" button.

You no like Booker? :noway:


No I wouldn't take him top 10, probably not even lotto.
I know I'll get flamed for saying this, but he can't create his own shot; not an elite athlete(he's decent athletically though), not the best finisher, and has limited upside. I understand the Klay comparisons, but Golden State is pretty good at developing talent and we're absolutely awful at developing players. Not too mention guys who can just shoot, haven't had much success of late, Ben McElmore; Doug McDermott, Nik Stauskas, and Jimmer are still struggling or have struggled in the NBA.

If you're high on Booker and want him at 10, more power to you, but I just don't see it with him. If Devin turns out to be a great or even good pro, I'll gladly eat crow, but I'm not a believer in him right now.

I hear you, I'd preffer Stanley, Hezonja or even Oubre for the upside - but we desperately need elite shooting.

If Stanley falls to #10 I find it too hard to pass on him even though I feel he's missing something. I can't put my finger on it. Is it the fact that he's not an elite athlete? Is the fact that he's not that great of finisher around the rim? I'm just not sure.

But I like the thought of getting the kid from Texas or Booker even though I haven't seen much of him.

I agree with you for the most part. Him being that huge for his position but not being a good finisher is highly questionable. Maybe it is his mentality. He has good ball-handling for his size and a bit quicker than his size suggest, you would think he would just slam it each and every time but not everybody can be LeBron James lol. But his defense thooooo...

Stanley Johnson won't be available at 10 most likely. I can see Booker and Oubre still there, but even some teams above us are looking at both. I like Booker and Stanley Johnson. Not a fan of Hezonja or Oubre. I think Booker is a better prospect than Hezonja and more skilled. Hezonja is just taller to me. Thats it.

I kinda didn't realize this until now but Booker's like about the same height of Winslow and Stanley..Those two are probably gonna get moved to the 2 once their handle gets to that level.

James Ennis is athletic too. I care about ball skills and IQ the most. Booker has a great off ball catch-and-shoot game as well as a good dribble-drive-and-pull-up game. He will help the Heat immediately. He is 3 years Hezonja junior, so that is significant as well. Booker is quick on his feet and displays some athleticism as well. He can play above the rim as well, and foesn't have the character issues Hezonja has. I like Booker over Hezonja easily. Hezonja moves too vertical.

Hezonja's only a year older than him though, and might be just as good as a shooter. There's a gigantic difference between Mario and Ennis...

This was pretty much his role for that team. Ball skills and IQ aren't a weakness for Hezonja. The only thing I hear about as a negative is "Oh that guys an international he's not gonna be good "(I'm not gonna go into detail over how stupid this is) and attitude. I wanna hear specifics about attitude before judging a guy cause that's a pretty broad definition. A player could be an ultra competitive **** or be a pothead like Beas.

This was where Oubre started to pick it up after being in the doghouse for the beginning of the season. I do like the other wings more but this guy is kinda tempting despite the rawness of his game. Situation can really affect player development, and having him play with a fast paced drive and kick PG in Goran and the length he brings to go with our long wingspan frontcourt is intriguing. He's gonna have to show Riley pre-draft that he isn't that guy from the beginning of KU's season.
