    The 29% FT is enough to keep me away from him.

    ^Shav Randolph used to make me nervous. He'd curl up in the fetal and rock back and forth........ right there on the damn plane.

    Anyone concerned about Lillard's camp not letting him do any workouts with other prospects?

    Status quo. It's what he did by playing at Weber State.

    Somewhat, but everything that really concerns me about his game isn't going to be resolved in a 1-on-1 setting, it would take 5-on-5 or at minimum 3-on-3 to see if he can actually set people up and make them better. It would be nice to see how he stacks up individually in man-defense drills and whether or not he can hang and compete with other top guys, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see if he A) ends up a Blazer and B) can hang in the league.

    Thanks for post (repped because of risk involved?)

    With this tier group 6 and 11 kind of suck. I mean it is good to have 6 and 11, but if BPA is the theory going into the draft, there is a drop right at 6 and at 9.

    I hope Ford is wrong with his groupings . . .

    Edit: got to spread the rep around I guess

    Wasn't a lot of this a part of what happened at the combine? He worked out both days against the whole pg group. I'd be more concerned about the other guys skipping the first day.
