Any idea guys what's gonna happen to Juan Pablo Vaulet? Billy King caused us multiple 2nd round picks for that guy...

Funny how we got one of the most athletic picks and one of the least athletic picks

he's a below average athlete by NBA standards, playing almost entirely below the rim.

Even though he can barely jump over a phone book

he lacks athleticism in a serious way

a guy who shoots 68% from 2 and 40% from 3, wonder why he got benched unless he can't play defense worth a lick. just watch some videos and he has some post moves (against smaller players) as well as NBA range face up shooting. why wouldn't you bring him in unless you are thinking you have Hamilton one more year so unless Hamilton is traded, you give this guy another year abroad.

Check the thread. You'll be surprised. He's a good prospect.

I will definitely do that. I just wonder if he will ever come over to the league similar to the other stash player (who's name escaped me because he is still overseas).
OKC Thunder fan, too.

He'll do his damage in the undrafted market. Also, we have Prince Ibeh. I suspect he's got a shot at the roster as well.

Hey, it's not necessarily a knock on him. It's just what it is.

He can score and shoot, that's obvious, like Bogs. It's defense that might be the biggest problem

I don't want Harris, Hamilton and Kilpatrick on the roster for next year. Please get rid of them Marks.

Last I heard, his team basically said in public that he's better off with the Nets, which tells me that we can choose to bring him over this offseason if we want to. But he's such a raw prospect, I'm not even sure if he could handle the D-league. He can't shoot at all, 3pt, midrange, or from FT line, and he's not a very productive player in the league he plays in. So yea, it's more probable that Billy King cost us two second round picks.
