    should we do a thread on the tier thingy with bpa and whatever? (remember something like that from last year

    as in if a player from tier one falls, we take him regardless of position, but when choosing in a tier, you take the best fit

    tier one?
    len
    noel
    oladipo
    mclemore
    porter
    bennett
    burke

    Good luck coming up with a consensus on more than one tier. While #1 might be better than #20, there will be huge disagreement on where the cutoffs are in between.

    According to Haynes (via Courtside) Adams and Gobert will be in town this week.

    'Tone loves Adams.

    In addition to Burke, you've got Len who is either #1 or still available at #10, so I disagree. And the order to most of the top 10 is more or less random from one mock to the next.

    No way Len is there at pick 10. If you want him then you would have to trade up to get him.

    guess i have interpreted the mocks to, in general, have those 6-7 guys higher than the rest

    Tier 1 is Len, and only Len.

    You want me to start posting?

    1 year, 10 days, 21 minutes to go to the next one!

    When we have no pick. Olshey got us bad subs so we'd be in the bottom 12 this season, not next. Thanks Olshey!

    Don't forget Len has a broken foot. That's serious shit for a big man.

    Deadline to withdraw from the NBA Draft is today. Rudy Gobert's agent texted me that he's staying in the draft.

    Draft Express analyses the Point Guards:

    Situational Statistics
    Just by the numbers

    Things that jump out:
    Eric Green is a great scorer (and not a great distributor) without shooting a bunch of threes.
    Myck Kabongo draws a lot of fouls. Shane Larkin does not.

    Starting today we're doing a comprehensive overview of the 2013 Draft from an analytical point of view using both boxscore and Synergy stats

    Jonathan Givony ‏@DraftExpress 3m
    We first start with the point guard crop. Situational (Synergy) Stats: http://www.draftexpress.com/article/Situational-Statistics-the-2013-Point-Guard-Crop-4268 … and boxscore stats: http://www.draftexpress.com/article/Just-By-the-Numbers-the-2013-Point-Guard-Crop-4269


    Having read that Erick Green might be a nice little spark off the bench for someone.

    Interesting read. I love McCollum but in no way shape or form should he be listed with the PG's. Well maybe he can fill in as the 3rd string one.

    These Stats are interesting to read, but you always have to remember that they are based on young players who are still developing their game. I want an advanced stat that tells which ones work the hardest and will improve the most. Because they all have to get better.

    Reggie Bullock seems like a solid all around talent at SF. Did any of you get to see him play?

    Not much, but seems like a 3 and D guy. Needs to get stronger though. Don't think he'll be there when our second rounders roll around though.

    Ha! I noticed that too. He finished everything, even from the left side, with his right hand. That won't work in the NBA.

    I didn't realize Withey wasn't expected to go in the 1st. If he's there with our second pick, I think that would be a solid pick.
