Jeremy is probably the best big prospect that we will see when it's our turn to pick and I'm tempted to take him. There will be a bunch of guard prospects available later in the draft. It might be in our best interest to to try and snag another pick and try and pick up a guard later.
He is a big ass baby, but maybe he has matured some since leaving high school, although I doubt it.
Tyler Honeycutt weighed in at 187 pounds. His trainer could've force fed him some Myoplex before the combine.

The guy is running up and down the court pretty easily and he's not getting too winded. I can't say it's clear cut who the number 1 overall will be.
speaking of wingspan: "The most intriguing thing about the 6-foot-3 (PG Reggie) Jackson is his 7-foot wingspan". Rondo-esque.
After watching the clip from ESPN those were canned responses from each of the panel. Not saying that none of those players didn't show something worth noting but....Killa had his analyst hype order mixed up slightly
Penn was on the panel for hype prospect Faried
Elmore was on the panel for touting the prospect he probably saw more of throughout the year Brooks
Fran was on the panel to tout the foreign prospect because that's his mojo he scouts foreign players so he talked up Katner
Ford went with basically who was left drawing some attention Singleton
They all ironically/coincidentally chose a different player to hype.....hmmmmmmmmm. Duh they're trying to sell the draft because for some of these guys this is how they make their name(Ford & Fran) and also probably trying to put stuff out there in an effort to exercise follow up with NBA execs on what they saw.

Durant couldn't bench press 185lbs 1 time, wouldn't put too much stock into his build at this point. You got Tayshawn Prince who was a stick man too.
The panel is getting way too much tv time for me. Why do we need to watch them talk? Can't we listen to them while we watch the guys do the drills? Damn.

Yeah, but Durant is much taller and is much better shooter. Not saying that Honeycutt won't eventually be good (I think he will), just surprised at how skinny he is.

yeah theyve got the whole format screwed up. Showing guys shooting, but you can't see if it goes in.
Cutting away from plays doing drills so we can look into Chad Ford's eyes. I really don't get it.
