    Was reading somewhere that often times teams won't bother if they are already planning on having the guy in for a visit.

    Shane Larkin drops to #38? He was a freak at the Combine, and he falls out of the first round? I'd trade up to get him early in the 2nd, if that's the case.

    Glad S2 are seeing the potential in Larkin.

    Pretty much anybody who picked Miami to win the tourney saw the potential in Larkin. Not like you're breaking new ground here, Fez.

    Whats the new fascination with under 6'0" guards? Every year there's plenty of them that thrive in college. Then they can't hang in the league.

    That's the same thing people said when they didn't want the Blazers to draft CP3. And there were of lot of them as I recall.

    Chris Paul is 6'1" with a 6'4" wingspan. Larkin is 5'10" with a 5'10" wingspan.

    Other than Larkin, which guards in this draft are you talking about?

    Chris Paul is listed at 6' in every site I checked, which means he is at least a hair under. And I am still pissed we passed on him. (Even if he is a whiny little bitch)

    Larkin would have a specific bench role like how Dallas used Barea. He won't be guarding the CP3's or Westbrook's.

    Lillard will, but I can't imagine Larkin being any worse than what Lillard showed last year.

    Has anyone seen any workouts scheduled with Portland?

    I know Wolters has already worked out with the Lakers.

    Karasev is in play at #9 -- I thought Kahn was fired?

    There's a guy from Iowa State who's a lot like Barea - Aaron Craft.
