and I officially punked him its going to be Rudy Gobert.. Also James Ennis when he comes back from Australia--hes going to be a really good NBA player--better than Hardaway.
Just saw a few clips on Muscala avg 17-7 in the Spanish league in 23 minutes per.
But Gobert looks like he could be a top 3 player in this draft. Steven Adams--another guy I punked also looked very very good.

by the way BRIGGS (and others), i forget where i posted this on the internet but overall i feel that the NBA is LONNNNG over due for an OFFICIAL MINOR LEAGUE system. The D-League has been shown to have some decent talent that can be called up to the NBA. I know there are problems with the D-League (only 17 teams for the 30 NBA teams - yes that means some teams share), but there is potential there. Its a shame, 1st rd draft picks like Muscala and Nogeira needs to go to Europe to improve their skills. Imagine if youre a Hawks fan living in Alabama (i just made that up), it would be nice to have to have a farm team since close by to watch youre 1st rd draft pics.
PS Steven Adams looks VERY good. double double machine in the preseason. Looks like Collison 2.0 with more quickness and defense. I still havent given up on J.Lamb from that houston trade. i still think the harden trade will work out for them

The NCAA made sure in order to keep the college pro game( plantation) profitable, there will never be a talented effective minor league system of the NBA....book it !

You were really down on him. Trashed him and said it would be years before/if he became an nba player.

Gobert is athletic for his size wanted the Knicks to draft him.

This guy might be the best player in this draft from what I have seen--atleast in his potential. If he came out of college for 2 years he wouldve went #1 he obviously did not get enough time wherever he played. He might ve been considered a player who can be a franchise player unlike almost any player taken because there was none. I think we couldve used him just a tad more than Hardaway JR:(
Look at that lefty hook shot he made--soft beautiful stroke. Chandler hasnt hit one like that in his 13 years. This guy can be seriously good.
