The 2015 NBA Draft Thread: Draft Day Is Here

[Vincent Van Goat]

I know you Knick fans seen that rumor that Phil wants to trade down to get Payne

I didn't see the link posted here though 

 

[awwsome]

I'm not buying any of these rumors, ****** just need **** gossip about.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

im not paying attention to anything till draft day. bunch of hacks making **** up for page views. its disgusting.

 

[carver]

Yeah, we need the 25th to just get here

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I don't buy any of the rumors either I just seen other rumors posted and noticed this one hadn't been 

Everything is smokescreens

[Vincent Van Goat]

Mad Dog Madsen even hyped in these workouts? 

 He never stops Mad Dogging

 

[carver]

That form.. he ain't getting that shot off at all 

 

[johnnyredstorm]

see look at KAT stroke and look at Okafor, that's how you can tell someone that's fluid and capable of consistently making that shot vs just looking good in a video.

Flip just take Towns mannnnnnnnnn!!!!!!

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Like I said in the Lakers thread, I just don't ever recall his set shot looking that terrible 

Asterisk was shocking tbh

Okafor wants to be a Laker so badly. He even said "we" during his media interview.

 

[awwsome]

Jahlil with the 5 second jumper.

 

[essential1]

I started searching some videos from Duke and he doesn't do that hitch at all.

I have a feeling it's off the dribble (shouldn't be shooting off the dribble anyway), shooting from 19 feet + ( Shouldn't be shooting that far away anyhow).

Maybe it's just him not being comfortable and not being able to get his feet set.

[6 Rings G.O.A.T.]

Shot is broken..

 

[nelson999]

He's got a 2 part shooting stroke

Yeah he does 

I hope Flip watches this and sees the same thing we are.. he has his heart in LA for sure.

Not being able to set his feet while a coach feeds him the ball, wide open, with no defense?

Nahhhhh

:x :x

That's gonna need work if not a full overhaul.

I've always respected Cs that have that high release 15-20 footers i.e. LMA, Ewing, Robinson, Olajuwon

Maybe that can be taught.

 

[pmatic]

Yeah, he never showed that hitch at Duke in the rare jump shots he took. Weird.

 

[carver]

If that was video from a TWolves workout I would have thought he was shooting like that to throw the workout so we don't draft him.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Jahlil can't shoot a lick and the scary thing is it seems to be somewhat mental.



I think you have to hope he gets to Al Jeffereson is now with his jumper. Reliable rnough where he can use a pump fake from 10ft out.

 

[Brownstone]

Good luck in LA Jah ...Lakeshow can have you

 

[hypebeast5]

Jay's shot looks broken as hell but does this really hurt his stock? or hurt it considerably? What I'm trine say is that is stock is as high as it is cause of the work he does down low in the post and by far dude has been the best low post scorer to come out in years

 

[nick.]

should still be picked by the Wolves or Lakers regardless. teams know he's not a shooter like that.
