Kentucky fan here, looks good to me...

Good to see two Baylor guys in your top six.

Not sure if PJ3 will play the 4 in the pros, though. His frame doesn't really put on a lot of weight.

CadBane · 12-09-2011, 04:21 PM

Most underrated player in the country.

McDermott's a great college player (im an SDSU fan) but he has the size of a 3 and is weak athletically with handles of a big, not sure that translates to the NBA.

Perry is list at 6-11 (probably closer to 6-9/6-10) and 235 (probably more around 225) but with his super leaping ability I think he can play the position in the NBA.

Could be a Mike Dunleavy type. With a better post game.

My dream is for us to somehow land steven adams for the 13/14 season. That would be the best day of my life

Kidd Karma · 12-12-2011, 03:49 PM

Barnes overrated, think he's closer to 7. Had a tough time creating his shot against Kentucky. I think Austin Rivers will be better than 19 by the time the season's done. He's been pretty impressive the last week or so. Creating his own shots, silky outside jumper. If he were another 2-3 inches, he'd be top 5 easily.

CadBane · 12-12-2011, 08:30 PM

Rivers is way overrated, IMO. Barnes may not create as well, but his shot is way better.

mavs777 · 12-13-2011, 03:05 AM

Not a big fan of Rivers attitude but he can play made some updates including putting Mike Moser in top 50, he is the best rebounder in college basketball (think UCLA could use him? he is athletic but has very little back to basket game and is undersized, so a tweener, but his athletisism and rebounding ability make him intriguing).

Beal, Gilchrist, Rivers, Leonard, and Doron Lamb moved up, Myck Kabongo is the only one i dropped.

Kidd Karma · 12-14-2011, 04:02 PM

Boy these guys take their press clippings very seriously, noticed Teague's FT% is 58 and Anthony Davis was at 52%.

CadBane · 12-22-2011, 10:28 PM

Doug McDermott is now putting up 25/9 on 63/58/83 shooting. This dude has an NBA future.

tcat075 · 12-23-2011, 09:44 PM

JIMMER.

Oh crap never mind.

I like Perry Jones. I've heard one person compare him to Kevin Durant. Obviously it's not a good comparison, but once you think about it a little, how far off it is really?

OneLove22 · 12-23-2011, 10:06 PM

Where's Robbie Hummel?

They have similar body types (Perry a bit stronger) but im not sure thats a great comparison, Durants a much better shooter, and really Perry has good range for a big but isn't a good shooter off the bounce. He does however have good handles like a 3, I actually think the closest comparison to him is Lamar Odom. He has a very unique skillset, not the passer Lamar is however.

Just dropped 44 points, and those numbers you posted over two weeks ago are still hovering around the same place. He's on some kind of tear.

Yeah, I was just coming here to post that, actually. I think 34 of those points were in the 2nd half as well. I know at one point, he made 10 straight shots. Kid's numbers are sick. I could see him as a Dunleavy/Ryan Anderson hybrid in the NBA.

mavs777 · 01-17-2012, 02:27 PM

Some changes Drummond back too number 2 as he is playing harder of late, Thomas Robinson moves up to 6, he is great at sealing defenders, slight upword movement for Terrence Ross and MKG, Cody Zeller moves into top 15

twistaeffect2004 · 02-08-2012, 11:23 PM

Is Austin Rivers talented or what? Sky's the limit with that kid. What a performance tonight against the Tarheels.

mavs777 · 02-09-2012, 12:12 AM

Yeah he is, will probably create a new thread and just do a top 20 in a couple of weeks. With Drummond and Jones inconsistency 2 spot is up for grabs.

When you have the ability to create, you're going to be in the league for a long time. I mean all game it was Curry setting up the offense, but at clutch time, Rivers became primary. He had a rough start and it's definitely made him hungry and practice is beginning to show.
