'15 NBA Draft/Offseason Thread

Ahhh ...the ole "white guy to white guy" comparison game. Nevermind the clear differences in their style of play, or the three inch size difference, or the fact that there are more accurate comparatives out there, gotta stick to the white guy to white guy rules.

 

Other than being white how exactly are their games similar?

 

Hey, come on, one guy made 12 three-pointers in a four-year college career, the other guy made 103. It's the same thing.

 

"Kristaps Porzingis" sounds like a scary-looking brand of Eastern European pork rinds.

Meanwhile, Nigerian princes everywhere are frantically dialing Phil Jackson's number: Phil Jackson defends New York Knicks' first-round selection of Kristaps Porzingis

 

I have a feeling Frank is going to be better than a lot of people think. He's pretty crafty with the ball and scores in a number of ways, both inside and outside.

 

I think with their shifty speed they would both make great possession receivers. Good to match-up with scrambling QBs like Byron Leftwich.

 

Agreed. And definitely better than Cody Zeller. But how do you pass up Justise Winslow if you're Charlotte?

 

We'll see.... Keep in mind that Zeller and Kaminsky were in the same class in college. During those first two years when Kaminsky was an unknown benchwarmer Zeller was earning All American type honors. He certainly was not better than Zeller the last time they competed against the same competition at the same time.

 

That was all part of Bo Ryan's plan. He likes guys to suck for two years so he can keep them for all four.

 

Beats one-and-done'ism though it won't get you many titles.

 

Damnit, quoting Fly's post apparently displays nothing.
That one [Detroit's pick] definitely surprised me.
