Rich man Darrington Hobson...I'm a huge Iwundu fan, because if that three pointer translates to the NBA, I think you are drafting a more capable Tony Snell, just don't see him being available with our second rounder and there are other options I like more at 17

Oh and for what it is worth, Hambone is absolutely going to draft Iwundu with one of those second rounders...about the surest thing I can think of in this draft.

"Official College Measurements" are always flimsy. Thon would have been listed at like 230 lbs had he gone to Kentucky.


It's a little different with Kentucky since they have that combine at the beginning of the year though.

Then again, they measured Monk with a 6'3" wingspan at Kentucky when he had measured at 6'6"-6'7" like 10 times before that so who knows haha

His big selling point was his size and strength though


He's basically an Amare Stoudemire at 19 physically, was Amare small/weak.

Watch his Bucks workout, I bought in because of his nice stroke.
Having a big that will shoot 70%+ FT% is huge for me.
He wasn't joking, he could play some 3 and 4 as well.

Well it's draft day and still no Little Cleo. I think we can safely assume he's dead and someone should probably call the cops.

It's the morbid trainwreck mentality - how many ACL's can a human blow out.
Let another team find out and you can watch the highlights

Still, it would be nice if Jabari had a word with Blair.

Inglis weighed 50 more pounds than Iwundu when he was drafted. So it would have to be a really mini version. Also, Iwundu probably has 10 more inches of vert if I were to guess.

Chad Ford went from saying #17 was Giles' floor this morning to now saying he could go as low as 21.

that was two years ago that he pulled out of the draft. I like him but we can get him as a UDFA, there will be better prospects at #48

Yeah, but the cast on his leg probably weighed like 30 pounds, so the difference is closer than you might think!

Are you just going into every thread and posting Hartenstein stuff? I'm also pretty sure you added like 15 user accounts so you could vote multiple times for him in the poll, but maybe you had those last year so you could pump up the Thon votes

yep, in todays NBA he wont be a 3

but scouting reports say:
"While Adebayo will guard mostly 4’s and 5’s, he has enough agility to spend some sequences on wings and guards. If he switches on pick-and-rolls or the situation calls for it, he’ll hold his own against most small forwards and guards."


he has a nice touch

What do you think about Dorsey at 48 if he is there?

Damien Inglis would be a lotto pick in this draft IMO.
