2015 Nba Draft Discussion: Russell, Nance Jr., Brown

Yeah, I see the hype now, and it's all warranted. He's a stud.

 

Great, great, game. Very well played. Winslow is a stud. Okafor came up huge in the end...

 

Major, major props to Jones and Allen...

 

Great game. Wisconsin is going to be second guessing themselves forever though.

 

Both of them showed a lot tonight.

 

Good game. Scratch that, great game.
Duke came out strong to start but Wisconsin hung in there and entered the half tied. Wisconsin came out of the half strong and got a good size lead and all the momentum. Allen and Jones brought Duke back in the game and held on to win it.
Good showing from Winslow, Tyus and Frank. Okafor had two solid runs where he made two big shots.

 

Ok, so now that it's all said and done, Towns or Okafor? And then Russell, Mudiay, or Justise?

 

Yup. Winslow needs to tighten up that handle; doesn't handle well through traffic. Also, has a nice euro step to his game...he's going to be a nice player in the NBA

 

I think Winslow's stock has risen. I put him at #3 with Johnson. Couldn't go wrong with either.

Okafor stays put at #1. He was in foul trouble and Duke couldn't get him the ball, but came through when it mattered most.

 

I hate to be a prisoner of the moment, but it would be real tough not to pull the trigger on Winslow if he is sitting there at number 3 or 4. I still love Russell, but Clarkson-Winslow-Randle sounds like one hell of a core for us.

 

Kaminsky and Hayes were the only ones to show up for Wisconsin tonight. But man, his heart is there and always chugging through.

He played smart defense on Okafor, he took it to Okafor offensively, hit great 3's, but he ran out of gas at the end.

 

I think there will be a lot of talk, but ultimately Okafor still goes number one.

 

Yeah. They didn't feed Kaminsky the ball enough and settled for way too many jumpers and threes.

 

Hayes is a little Stanley Johnson-esque eh?

Big body, strong, shoot the J. Not quite as aggressive as Stan but effective. Hope he can snag him with that Clippers pick.

 

True. I still think he played himself into the lotto though. He probably lands anywhere from 10 to 15.

 

I hear this; although, I had a personal board earlier, it did get changed over and over again. I'm going to wait until lottery night and see where we land, how workouts come in, etc. Still a long ways to go for me to have anything cemented and or written in stone when we don't have our pick yet. Speculation is fun, and I have done a lot of that, but right now, May 19th looms large in our immediate and long-term future.
