the guy's projected to be a mid first rounder. I dunno, I've seen some of his games and nothing he does impresses me. he doesn't have an amazing outside touch, isn't completely dominating inside, he's athletic but not an eric gordon type athlete. He looks like antoine wright to me, an nba player that can do lots of things but nothing great. I'd pass on alexander.

Nikolas Pekovic looks a lot like Tim Duncan of now. I want him for our second round pick and store him away.

His defense is atrocious, mean realllly bad. As for Pekovic, I wonder what his buyout situation is. Krstic's buyout was so complicated and onerous that the Nets might shy away from taking him. I have seen that DeAndre Jordan clip a thousand times, but not much else of him. It should be used by high school coaches to encourage boxing out.
NI you've probably seen more footage than I, so correct me if my initial impressions are way off: Batum has more of a three-point shot, but lacks the confidence to consistently take over the game, while Danillo's game is focused on driving to the hole (not the 3-pointer), but plays with much more intensity and heart that Batum. It's hard to really gain an accurate picture of a player when all one has is youtube clips and draftexpress articles.
