"The Official 2013 NBA Prospect Thread 4 Thruthiness and Justivity"


  

          

finals are over. people happy (duke fans, lebronians, knick haters, etc.). lotta people mad (they know who they are...they the ones reading this and mumbling "whatever..i ain't mad. what i got to be mad about?")...BECAUSE YOU MAD, SUCKA!

anyway...

time to go on record about the next crop of players whose NBA adventures will be making us happy or making us pretend to not be mad.

let's get it...

Nerlens Noel
Jun 21st 2013

Worst case scenario: Camby. Which is pretty goddamn good.
Jun 21st 2013
5
Thats worst case or best case?
Jun 21st 2013
18
Assuming health? Worst case.
Jun 21st 2013
22
      Dunno how you guys keep underrating Marcus Camby.
Jun 25th 2013
160
           I'm not underrating Camby. I think Nerlens can be that good.
Jun 25th 2013
167
you can't extrapolate pro careers like that from freshman yr comparisons
Jun 27th 2013
233
      Obviously, but you can extrapolate potential IMO.
Jun 28th 2013
248
           potential sure, not expectations though.

Noah/Serge hybrid
Jun 21st 2013

Where will he rank among other stretch 4s in the league?
Jun 21st 2013

He is a good pick in the teens
Jun 24th 2013

Jun 28th 2013

Jun 21st 2013

He makes me nervous
Jun 26th 2013

Jun 21st 2013
43
solid starter...worry about his scoring ability at NBA level.
Jun 21st 2013
71
yeah i think he is a 13-17 ppg guy, not a huge scorer
Jun 21st 2013
74
agreed. something like 60+ percent of his shots
Jun 24th 2013
141
      he likes that corner 3, GOOD, now get AUTOMATIC with it
Jun 25th 2013
186
           considering what he was in high school?
Jun 25th 2013

Only lottery pick I like.
Jun 24th 2013

I like the fact that he worked on his handle. His D is a given
Jun 24th 2013
144
A Jerome Kersey. Won't be very good, though.
Jun 25th 2013
157
He's gonna have to work HARD on offense
Jun 27th 2013

Otto Porter

Stud defender, efficient high percentage scorer, instant starter.
Jun 21st 2013

Jun 21st 2013
80
      Do you know how All Star voting works?
Jun 21st 2013
83
           i know how voting works you condescending prick.
Jun 23rd 2013
123
                I didn't predict multiple ASGs.
Jun 25th 2013

like his completeness, dont care about numbers and early exits
Jun 21st 2013
44
oh, you know i think he's a star
Jun 21st 2013

I'll only care if he goes to the Wiz
Jun 21st 2013

      except he only had 2 single digit scoring games
Jun 25th 2013

           and one of those <10 ppg was still 25% of the team's points
Jun 25th 2013
177
                that was one of the worst competitive events ive ever witnessed
Jun 25th 2013

You ain't the mod in here. I asked a fair question.
Jun 21st 2013

      i'll answer. they happy because the knicks lost. and to a lower seed
Jun 21st 2013

I'm a fan, think he could have a Hibbert like progression
Jun 21st 2013

I think he'll be more than respectable, eventually.
Jun 21st 2013
54
      that's only slightly stronger than how i feel about him, i think
Jun 21st 2013
64
           Ah, gotcha, respectable felt like an undersell, thought I'd clarify, lol...

I know the "Jameer ceiling" is the hip thing to say...
Jun 21st 2013
57
we are misusing the word "ceiling" a lot in this post IMO
Jun 21st 2013
65
      I don't think Ba made people underrate Burke.
Jun 21st 2013
82
           CP3, AI, Lawson, et al ... there are counterexamples to all that
Jun 21st 2013

           Jameer's had a really solid career.
Jun 22nd 2013
98
                nothing to scoff at all
Jun 23rd 2013

                I agree wholeheartedly. Hence him being the ceiling imo.

better than his brother. so solid starter and at least 1 all-star team

A project... but the PG project with the highest ceiling.
Jun 21st 2013

people are way underrating his bust potential
Jun 24th 2013
127
      Naaah.. he is a bad shooter, but his defense will stop him from busting ...

Jun 21st 2013

A good gunner. Fills it up with authority.
Jun 21st 2013

i think he has the tools to defend well, just not the interest
