    I dont see that as a criteria for drafting him. People commented about the same stuff after Martell Webster's predraft workout and Greg Oden's. I like that hes mature but care more about his skills.

    You cant be too enamored with his physique and ability to dunk, even with one hand.
    I personally would take Murray, Sharpe, Griffin Jr over him at 7 form what Ive seen.

    That looks insanely high at the top of his vertical with his reach. Imaging trying to shoot over that.

    feel free to ignore my posts as i have yours. you are the most disrespectful poster here and in my decade plus have never been responded to with curses and insults like i have by you.... for literally no reason.

    i don't need to keep on getting insulted from you for basketball opinions. add me to your ignore list.

    i'd rather take another break, tbh. was trying to do that after the season and broke my knee on essentially my first day of vacay. recovering from my fracture has me in front of a computer all day, and diving deep into this draft is one of the few things keeping me engaged. unfortunately there's a few people here who sit behind a screen and toe the line on lax rules for personal attacks on this forum every chance they get.

    i don't like participating in that kinda shit and try to keep my opinions focused on basketball.

    whatever.. back to regularly schedule programming.

    How do his measurements compare to Spicy P? Seems like a smart dude.

    Can dish it out but can't take it I see. I often respectfully disagree with posters, but your condescending crap on top of redundancy has me responding in kind. So sorry that you don't see it that way. Also sorry, but no one is on my ignore list.

    Ive never called any anonymous posters "fucking idiots" like you have to me. That is in kind? Thats not dishing it. Thats just disrespectful and the level of discourse on this forum was supposed to be above that. You want to stoop to that level... Go ahead. Im not above ignoring disrespect.

    your posts are regularly condescending... you reep what you sow. Acting like a jerk and then like you've been wronged when someone comes back at you... grow up. I loved your bit about others toeing the line

    Aren't you the savior that this forum deserves... You are the first person to call me condescending. Good to know.
