NBA Draft thread

Post by LA_Mustang »

Sterling must be having great workouts because he is showing up in the second round of mock drafts now. We have a legit chance to have two players drafted in this year's draft.

Kent Bazemore would be a great professional for Sterling to learn behind

Semi is almost nowhere to be seen in first round mocks - dare to dream that he'll change his mind and come back since he hasn't actually signed with an agent yet?

Today's Washington Post has a lengthy profile on Bob Ferry, the former Wizards (then Bullets) GM who is now a scout for the NJ Nets. It described his 50th year scouting at the Portsmouth Invitantional event for graduating seniors. He likes Sterling --

Southern Methodist guard Sterling Brown, perhaps the top prospect at the event, got hot. Ferry watched closely as Brown scored a few quick baskets in the first half, including one off a ball fake into the lane. Ferry had a gut feeling about Brown in that moment.

"That's another pro move made there," he said. "I call them pro moves. That means, the move will work in the pros."

just read that despite modest season-with one good game-that Ted Kapita is staying in NBA Draft. Probably doesn't have a choice due to academics. Anyway that "bridge" probably wasn't going to help next year either

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.
