I'm still Intrigued with Montrezl Harrell if he's on the board when The pels pick comes up. His motor and athletic ability are fantastic. His offense is raw, but having a high energy, physical 4 next to Noel wouldn't be a bad thing.

You just lack knowledge on the player. Kyle Anderson has point guard traits, but he doesn't move well enough to play at the 1 at the next level. He has slow footspeed, slow lateral quickness, and just poor overall athleticism. He would get blown by on every single possession trying to guard PG's at the next level. He's a point forward.[/quote

LOL I have been watching Kyle since the 10th grade, what makes him special is that he's a 6'8 kid who can handle and pass the ball so when you move him out the PG position you basically take away what makes him a unique player. So hes to slow to guard PG but I guess he can guard bigger stronger SF that makes sense lol.

A few spare thoughts on the prospects being discussed:

Kyle Anderson: I LOVE this guy. So underrated as a prospect it's not even funny. His rebound and assist numbers are almost unprecedented and are too good to be ignored. Point guard, small forward, point forward, whatever; the guy is really good at basketball. Not sure I like him for us, though. He seems a bit redundant with MCW.

Montrezl Harrell: Like him too, but I'm not sure that Kazemi isn't actually a superior prospect. He's been out of sight and out of mind, but I think he has a chance to be a huge steal for us down the road. He's a classic undervalued asset: a stat-stuffer who doesn't pass the eye test. Kind of like Kyle Anderson, come to think of it...

I love Exum. Wouldn't be surprised if Hinkie would take him #1.

if we had him ranked 1st we might as well trade down a couple spots and get something extra

How's is Julius Randle not a starter? Embiid also is way overhyped.

It would be nice if you could also include how long it is going to take each one of these players to reach the potential you see for them. Are the all stars going to be all stars 1 year (Jrue Holiday) or will they be selected multiple times?

I think picking the guys that should be the best is easy. Do you have any insight as to which player(s) could be a star not chosen in the top 10 and why?

how are randle and gordon not a lock to be starters lol gordon can start based off defense alone

I was going for multiple all stars appearances with that title, should have specified that.

As for a possible star outside of the top 10: I'm a big PJ Hairston fan and think he has the talent to pull it off. He can shoot, score, and cause problems defensively. If it weren't for him being an older prospect and his off court problems he would be in my top 10

What do you guys think about MCW at PG, Exum at SG, and Kyle Anderson at SF? Offensively that is super intriguing.

Kobblehead · Post #75 » by **Kobblehead** » Fri Mar 28, 2014 1:30 am

42Up is so anti-Randle it isn't even funny.

I like this for the most part. The only serious disagreement I would have is Gary Harris. I don't think he is a starting NBA guard. The other smaller disagreements: Wiggins>Parker and Kyle Anderson is top 10.

SJSF · Post #77 » by **SJSF** » Fri Mar 28, 2014 1:45 am

Randle is probably the most sure thing in this draft. 16/10 for the next 10 years.

I think that may be too many guys that function at their best with the ball in their hands, and no strong shooter. I think it would have to be either Exum or Anderson, assuming they keep MCW.

Zach LaVine needs another year, but my goodness is that kid athletic and fast.

Negrodamus · Post #80 » by **Negrodamus** » Fri Mar 28, 2014 3:53 am

Kyle is having a rough game.

Jordan Adams has an NBA game. He can do everything needed in the game besides the highlight reel dunks.
