I only watched the recap and the breakdown video vs. KY, so I'll take your word for it.  Overall, I'm not sold on him.

How legit is NBADraft.net? They have this kid D'Angelo Russell and they are comparing him to (and I'm like WOW) two names. The first one is Manu Ginobili, the other, that caught my attention, is (WOW) Brandon Roy?

Can anyone describe this kid? I havent seen him play. Brandon Roy? If that's true, give me some of that.

He's slotted at #10 in DraftExpress. I was just wowed when I saw that he was being compared to Brandon Roy at draft.net.

Being wowed by draft.net comparing D'Angelo Russel to Brandon Roy is like being blown away by Tommy comparing Fab Melo to Kareem Abul Jabar

I love D'Angelo Russell. He reminds me of James Harden without the athleticism. Obviously he probably won't be as good as Harden but he has the same craftiness to his game along with sweet stroke. I really think this kid is going to be special and would draft him if we lost out on a top 3 pick.

I watched the Ohio State game last night and it was the 1st time I saw Russell play. I was really impressed. Very complete guard. Showed a sweet 3 point stroke and the ability to drive to score and get fouled. Also appears to be a talented and willing passer. Style wise, the Roy and Harden references make sense because he appears to be equal parts PG and SG.

I'm definitely going to try to catch a lot of Ohio State games from here on out.

This is a strange draft.
Full of players who could be good 3rd options or strong role players. I think some of the more intriguing prospects can be found later in the draft.

Personally, I like Sam Dekker with the Clippers pick, or a guy like Terran Petteway in the 2nd round.

I guess I should as well. I was highly intrigued when draft.net said that that was his ceiling. Ive never seen him play yet but if thats going to be his NBA potential, wow, he would be a pick.

We should keep tabs on Thon Maker. If anyone has a chance to become the next KG, it's him:

Yeah that I can understand.  Turner is a decent top ten pick but will take some time to be a NBA impact player. Probably  another 3 years.

This kid looks good.  I don't see anybody projecting him as a first rounder.  Not even in people's 2nd round mocks for that matter.  6'10" guys who can recover like that on defense and have a good feel for the game are not easy to find.  I expect him to move up as people take notice.  Shooting 70% for Gonzaga.

Young Sabonis isn't expected to declare for the draft until 2016, where draftexpress.com has him late in the first round.

Ahh, that explains it.  Maybe things change between now and draft time.  I really like his game.

We should just draft the entire Kentucky starting lineup... Our picks are positioned where dakari, lyles, and Harrison are projected. Lol.  Whatever happens on draft night, it seems that would be the worst case scenario which isn't too bad
