Why did you think that?
Jah will be capable of 20 a night by year 3.
i just thought he was overrated. Didn't like his game in college. He looked lazy to me. Wasn't impressed with his offensive skills.

I should have put a disclaimer that while Green was second rounder, I don't think in most drafts there's a significant gap between early second rounders and where the Thunder and Heat will likely fall in the next draft.
Draymond was 2nd round, but Harrison and Ezeli did pan out, so your right
I just can't see 4 1st rounders all panning out

What?? Never been wrong before?
Who would have ever said Beasley would suck in the nba. You can never tell sometimes.
Say something outlandish on NT and people criticize. Say you're wrong and NT says why.

some people were iffy on beasley but it was the attitude that turned them off not the skill set. dude should've been a solid pro with the way he dominated that 1 year at k state

Beasley never sucked, in fact he was a solid starter at times and a quality role player as a good scorer. It was his off-court troubles and personal problems that scared teams off (except the Miami Heat every mid-season).

I don't typically look at college and think it will translate to the nba. Especially big men. He was a man amongst boys. Thought he wouldn't be that man at the pro level.
I also thought curry would just be ok. Never saw him being at this level. But I also thought Tim Duncan would be the best big man in the league when I watched him his freshmen year at wake Forrest.
What can you do.
I learned to never admit wrong here. From here on out, I'm always right

Hard to compare them two, Bridgewater is a top 5 pick surprised he doesn't get slander probably cuz he plays for Vikings
. Clarkson is a 2nd round pick, can't really have any expectations for him especially playing for a lottery team.

what? Teddy B was nowhere near a top 5 pick. I think he was the last pick in round 1?

Draymond used to be a fat boy lol.
He really worked hard and changed his body. A 6'7 unathletic PF who wasn't a consistent jump shooter is why he was a 2nd round pick.
However, he was a flat out winner. Even in college, he displayed the same hard nosed defense, rebounding and intensity we see today. That combined with his bball and Izzo's coaching made him very intruiging as a prospect.
Brendan Dawson is going to be the next 2nd round steal.

My bad meant to say he was a top 5 QB picked in the draft. Think he was 3rd or 4th

I don't think Dawson is going to be on Dray's level more like a Faried style caliber.. which isn't bad at all, don't get me wrong
Pels lost if Dawson pans out. Gave him up for cash

I just hope Doc gives him enough playing time to help him develop. I mean, one wiuld think he would since we bought the draft pick but it is Doc we're talmbout...

I think everyone does, except Steve Ballmer. Unfortunately, he gets to decide.
And it's not just that the new ones are bad in comparison with the old. It's also that there were so many better options out there.

What happened to that dude who was supposed to be a lottery pick at one point but his stock dropped so much he went undrafted?
Did he get picked up in summer league?
