somebody drop the insider aritcle on Tony Mitchell.
the hell he should :thefucc:CJ lesile should be higher
One guy I wouldn't mind trading up for too.
3 of the 4 worst teams (Washington, Cleveland, New Orleans) don't need a SG, and the team I think that wins the lotto (Sacramento/Seattle) doesn't need one either. The only team that bad that needs a SG is Charlotte.
Defensively, he may even be better than davis. His offensive game is horrible, but his athleticism, bouncyness and passing ability is superb. I've seen him hit some nice nice jump hooks but he seems tentative sometimes to try them during the game. His motor is nonstop, reminds me of MKG. I don't necessarily know about #1 (it depends who gets the #1 pick and WHAT they need) but Noel is a defensive juggernaught and has a lot of potential.People realy think Nerlens Noel is the [URL=http://www.the-coli.com/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=1]#1 [/URL] prospect?

again, his offense is but around the same as Davis was at this point in the season, though Davis had teammates who looked for the lob a lot more often.
My favorite statline from Noel this season is 15pts 11rebs 6ast 7blks 4steals. He's the best stealing big man I've ever seen in my life. He has 44 steals on the season... hes the only dude above 6'5 to have that many steals.
davis offense was trash too.. the difference is that a GOOD big man can affect the game much more than a scorer (in certain situations obviously). NBA drafts on potential, not offensively ability the player has right nowLike you said his offense is basically trash.No way should he be [URL=http://www.the-coli.com/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=1]#1 [/URL]

edit: also it depends on the needs of the team that actually gets the #1 pick.
also hes a low post player only so @Malta should enjoy watching his progression
Noel = Gerald Wallace maybe
I'm one of the biggest stans in the world...I would take a bullet for Cal cause I know he is going to continue to guide young black men to professional careers and change generational poverty, all while giving a poor forgotten state a sense of pride and joy in watching a sport we all love.
That said These UK freshmen are all terrible
I would take Noel on potential I guess as the 4th or 5th pick, but he has no offense and gets beat up by any big with size skill.
Poythress if it wasnt for high school ranking and uk affiliation wouldnt be on a top 500 list. We're not sure he like basketball...Great athlete no heart/no brain does nothing well
Archie Goodwin could be a middle income D Wade/Wetbrook down the line. Right now he is an extremely low iq player who plays out of control. Also takes plays off on D if he isnt scoring...No outside shot at all
Cauley Stein-- can be a good pro and could be better than Noel, but if he comes out this year he will be just another awful 7 footer...Has no offense/poor defensive instincts...A great athlete/kid will not make it if he leaves now....This time next year he can be in the top 10 maybe top 5 right now he should be 240 not 24
