    Oh, I misread it. That's even worse. Thanks for the correction

    Well, hopefully he grows a few inches. He's still young. I noticed he was much shorter than Jae Crowder last night when they were lined up next to each other.

    If Beal only measures in at ~6'4" in shoes this spring, he's not worth a Top 5 pick, IMO.

    Yeah, he is about the same size as westbrook and Jarrett are.

    Rivers is declaring to go to the draft. As is MKG.

    This is huge. I expect Rivers to kill it in workouts. He is tailor made for the NBA.

    I think Rivers is a tweener. MKG denied reports he had decided

    Kidd-Gilchrist will wait to announce until after Kentucky's season is over, I'd guess.

    Rivers reminds me a bit of Devin Harris, but even less of a playmaker.

    someone is gonna slip to the late teens and be a super steal, maybe we can pick up a later first somehow, and then use it wisely for once

    Just outside the lottery I'd say the intersection of risk and reward would probably tilt in his favor.

    Wow -- Drummond is shooting an atrocious 29.5% from the free-throw line.

    For comparison sake: Oden shot in the 60% range with his LEFT hand during his freshman year.

    Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

    I really like the highlights that I have seen with him but one thing that I have noticed is that his shot release seems really low. I dont how much of that is attributed to seeing LMA's very high release on a regular basis but it does look very fixable to me but Im certainly not an expert.

    Well, Harrison Barnes hasn't helped his stock at all in this tournament.

    I really like Tu Holloway of Xavier.

    This game is showing just how important Kendell Marshall is to their team.

    Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

    Barnes' stock free falling. Gotta think Bradley Beal, John Henson, Terrence Jones, Jeremy Lamb have jumped him in the rankings or have made up any gap Barnes had on them.

    Perry Jones equally unimpressive though. Seems like the hype machine revolving around this draft is fading quickly.
