Ya reckon?

Teams are happy to take a punt with 2 of the top 3 projected barely (and Kanter not at all) playing this season and yet Kemba has done nothing wrong and is taking a huge hit. :confused:

Are teams really that scared of his height even though the draft combine showed he wasnt as short as people were making out? What else is wrong with him? His want to shoot a bit too much at times? Still seems Jimmer is going top 10. Because he has the athleticism, the skills and the attitude that every club should want.

I'm not saying he's a number 1 pick but I cant see the reason he's suddenly taken such a massive hit.

Because his shot is still shaky as, although a good sign is he has improved a lot throughout his college career. He isnt that good of a defensive player he is one of those players that could be but he hasn't really shown it. He would be lucky to be going lotto in a half decent draft, this is a poor draft so prob should go lotto but if you want a slashing guard he is your man.

Oh reason he has probably taken a hit is because other teams picks are starting to fall in place ie. Jazz now not taking Knight so that opens it up for Raptors to take Knights over Kemba and so on. Its not because over night he had a workout and did shit.

Vale Daniel Ortons knees. He should seriously look into getting them insured or something.

Is Harris still contracted? Why take Knight if Devin is still there?

I guess if they're reasonably happy with Kemba in comparison to Knight and think he'll slip to 12 per DX they're going to go for the "best big" available instead at that pick.

Why take a PG with Devin Harris still in Utah though?

Utah don't have a back up PG to play decent minutes and Sexy Devin, although his stats dont spell it out it, was very ordinary after the trade to Utah and only has a couple of years left on his contract. Who knows, they might even be shopping him right now.
 
Walker is far too black for Utah. Need to be Ronnie Brewer black to play there. Like grey-ish.

That's why Ronnie still gets a game at Utah.

Also, if we get Hinrich and Smith, my **** will officially be out. Some Upton

That, and I've learnt that you should have as many PG's on your squad as possible.

I'm just terrified of what David Kahn is going to do tomorrow.

Kahn vs John Hammond talking trades, do you think they know which players are on each squad without help?

Only a rumor at this stage but there is strong thinking that Brewer will be leaving Utah with Chicago being a possible destination.
