Sam Amick @sam_amick Who's the physical beast of this draft? Far and away Connecticut's Andre Drummond: 278 pounds with 7.5 percent ...http://sulia.com/channel/basketball/f/7bf6cce8-70b0-4572-a5b4-27525c6fd792/?source=twitter
That seems odd to me. If I were evaluating a prospect, I'd rather have size that was always there. A 9' reach with a 33" vert seems better than 8'10" with 35". Maybe that's just me.
ESPN U replays a condensed (if 2 hours can be considered "condensed") version of the workout at 4PM on ESPN U.

Seriously? Would they disqualify a guy if he has an occasional beer or wine with dinner? Or even an occasional discreet toke? Also, would someone say yes to smoking weed since he'd be admitting an illegal action? Wouldn't be my question, which I guess is why I'm not a shrink.
John Hollinger @johnhollinger @DraftExpress I've heard this too. You don't reach as high as you can for standing reach, vertical is measured by subtracting from stand rch
Leaving us with Drummond? Shit that has disaster written all over it. But I really think a guy that big and athletic will be gone by 6. I would be shocked if he wasn't.
"disaster" or most upside in the draft? That's how much risk and upside he has. Pick your poison, but IMO if you ever want this team to ever compete for a chanpionship at the #6 position if you can get a guy like that you have to take the risk and pull the trigger.
Chad Ford @chadfordinsider Meyers Leonard the other big riser here. Think his range is closer to 9-14 now. #NBACombine Im beginning to wonder if we shouldnt try to get another pick to get this guy if we cant get Drummond
"Legal experts said the incident is potentially the most embarrassing arrest of a sports league in U.S. history, far worse than the NFL's 1993 arrest for domestic battery, college lacrosse's 2009 arrest for attempting to purchase 400 doses of Rohypnol from an undercover police officer, or Major League Baseball's nine DUIs."
T-Rob is a freak... 6'8" w/o shoes 7'3.25" wingspan 10.5" hand width 5% BF 244 lbs. o0 He has the build of a young Ben Wallace.
According to Quick (2 years ago) Batum is a legit 6'9" w/shoes -- His reach has to be in the 9'0" range.
Chad Ford @chadfordinsider Damian Lillard really helped himself last 2 days. Shot ball well. Competed. Just measured with a 36" inch standing and 40" full vertical.
