I'm not saying his shot is perfect by any means, i'm saying it is not totally broken like MKG who doesn't even look like he knows how to hold a ball when he shoots.

Jalen Brunson is an underrated point guard prospect at Nova. Had some huge games for team USA this summer, just a freshman.

As did Murray with 21 pts. To me, Murray is a better shooter, Dunn is better defender.

Im bored so just looking around at the draft sites. I came to a conclusion, unless the Mia or Okc picks end up in the teens (highly unlikely right now) we wont drafting a PG in the 1st round.

Our only hope right now is for Dunn to start playing outta of his mind, or the Lakers pick drops to 7 or lower

Definitely needs to stay in school. We'll see how he does running the show when Arch graduates.

Set your DVRs for the Michigan State / Providence game tonight. Kris Dunn against Denzel Valentine should be sensational. Valentine is a senior and will be 23 as a rookie, but his draft stock is soaring. For those not paying attention, he might be the best player in the country right now averaging 20.3 pgg (including almost 45% from 3 on almost 8 attempts a game), 9.3 rpg and 9.2 apg for the #3 ranked Spartans.

We definitely have the assets to trade up to 15 or so

It takes 2 to trade. We had the assts last year to trade up and Hinkie couldn't make a deal

Valentine beat OSU at the buzzer last year. I think he may have had some other clutch moments as well

OKC/Miami picks should be for two euro swing players/sharpshooters. Furkan and Lavergne(?) are the two that intrigue me.

I know he's another big, but I really like Dragan Bender. Looks more athletic than Porzingis.

I really want us to get PG this summer, and if its going to be a rookie it better be Dunn or Murray, I personally really like Murray, he's long quick and can shoot.
Ideally I want Kobe to put emotions aside as he announced retirement and just enjoy the game witch will help them win some games and we'll get their pick which will be Murray or Dunn.

Been a fan of Dunn his whole career. I see a little Dwayne Wade in him.

Murray is more a 2 then a 1. He can play the point but not full time

Kentucky is weird. Last year they had a ton of front court players. This year they have a ton of backcourt players.
