NBA Draft/trades

[ARyan]

Okay, let me just say, I heavily dislike the NBA, but I do follow ACC basketball due to the fact I went to Clemson, and follow all Tiger sports like a diehard.

So what do you NBA experts think of Booker heading to Washington?

It's way easier to manhandle college PFs than NBA ones, but he's a good jumper so he might be able to overcome being an undersized 4. I think he's a poor man's Paul Millsap. He'll hang around the NBA because of his athleticism and strength, but there's nothing that special about his game to make him a starter IMO.

Draftexpress has him listed at 6'7" 215.

You know what kills guys like this is they cant shoot FT's. As an undersized guy he should be able to use his quickness and athleticism to draw fouls from bigger slower players. But what good does it do when you are shooting 50% from the line.

the German guy just got traded like 12 times.

Nevada really had two players good enough to be drafted this year and couldn't even dominate or win the mighty WAC?? That coach must stink.

They lacked the depth they usually have, had a new coach, and the WAC was pretty tough this year with NMSU and Utah State in there. No shame in a T-2nd in that league.

He's heavier than that. Closer to 240.

That kid from Butler really went 9th? Do the Jazz hate black people or are they just retarded?

They had him at 236 at the combine. Not sure why they didnt update on his page.

I cant even keep track of who Washington has anymore. I dont think Booker is good enough to get much time in the NBA. Has skills of a guy who needs to be 6'10" and he measured at 6'7".
