LOL

 

Oh, I didn't know you could tell the future. Who's going to win the world series this year, NCAA baseball, basketball, and football championships next year?

Don't forget that the Cavs have 2 early first rounders, seeing as they get the Clippers pick coming up for the Baron Davis deal. Right now, if everything went in order (which it won't), the Cavs would get the first and the 6th picks. And I'd be willing to bet that Jimmer will still be on the board after Cleveland picks again.

The cavs might not pick him but I would bet he would go top 5

Is this a joke - he's going to be a Eddie House type. He lacks the athleticism of the average NBA point guard. His ball handling ability is efficient but lacks flash. Lacks the athleticism to finish at the rim. Yeah' date=' his speed is very good at the college level, but no way will it be good enough against NBA level athletes. His lateral foot speed be a liability and I don't think he will be able to create shots for himself against longer and more athletic players[/quote']

 

Who said he would be a point guard? :dunno:

I just checked 5 mock drafts, one put him at 10th, 2 put him at 13th, one put him at 14th, and another put Jimmer going 17th. While the mock drafts are obviously not clear predictions of what will happen, considering the draft order isn't set and people might not go to the NBA, I think it's clear that Jimmer won't be going top 5.

Let me see the link of the one with him going 17

Kyrie Irving isn't coming out.

Terrence Jones isn't ready to come out and if he did he would only get drafted on potential.

Are they serious about John Henson coming out?

Brandon Knight is ready to come out either.

Travis Leslie is staying for his senior year.

Jimmer needs to get stronger

I didn't say that it was 100% accurate, or is going to happen, but between the 2 extremes, I'd see Jimmer going 17th before I see him in the top 5. If I had to predict I'd say right around where the drafts are saying in the 10-14 range.

Kyrie's coming out. He's a true point guard in the weakest draft in recent memory. He is a top 2 pick.

A 6'2" shooting guard? Please, child. Can you imagine a 6'2" Jimmer at the SG position going against a 6'6" Kobe Bryant or a 6'4" Wade or 6'7" Joe Johnson or 6'8" Steven Jackson? I can't. He is a PG in the NBA. He is not a natural point guard but is developing his skills. He came into college as a shooting guard but has steadily developed his point guard abilities and decision making. He's just going to be instant offense coming off the bench in the NBA, nothing more, nothing less.

Jose Barea is 6 foot and is a PG and SG

Iverson is 6 foot SG

Eric Gordon is 6'2''

House is 6-1

Ehh those are bad examples

He will be starting somewhere sometime in his career

I don't understand Arizona's offense. The 3-1-1 makes sense against the zone, but they would be much better off with Williams at the foul line than running the base line. It's a lot easier to get him the ball there than on the baseline, and if the defense collapses on him he's in a great position to find his teammates.

Why couldn't Gus Johnson do the SEC Tournament instead of Brad Nessler? I like Nessler and everything but Johnson is better. I know CBS owns the rights of Gus Johnson and the SECT is on ABC but still

Williams didn't get the ball in the last minute of OT...ISIAH THOMAS!

 

Due to what I think is a huge flaw in their primary offensive set, but so be it. For what it's worth, the play call on Arizona's final offensive possession was perfect.

Also' date=' you've gotta think that Louisville wears down UConn in the second half after having to play five days in a row.[/quote']

 

 

It sucks to do so much and still lose in the finals, but oh well, at least Uconn would lose to a team that I somewhat like in the Big East, whereas losing to Syracuse would have felt much worse. Although that'd make us 0-3 against Louisville on the season.
