no doubt, Turner & Holiday got big potential that's for sure... both kids seem like they're hard workers too & aren't the type to get all diva on anyone... not sure if Holiday is a better prospect than Jennings tho.
As far as Stephenson, though, I think we were looking for players in this draft who could compliment LeBron or Wade.
With James at the point, you want intelligent players surrounding him and enough shooters to open up the floor. Rautins can shoot, no question about that aspect of his game, and even if he has trouble with the PG position, you can always use a great shooter. Fields is just an intelligent, all around player, who, if you read the DraftExpress write-up of his Portsmith games, does not force things when he plays.
High BB IQ, well rounded games, unselfish, and mature- qualities that allow them to fit in. Hobson and Johnson, two players we did not get, but wanted, are similar players, as was Vasquez, who I think you liked (although his shot is inconsistent).
I would have taken a chance on Torrance, despite the heart issue, by the way. Smart-good size- and he did well in the shooting drills.
Just have to wait to see how our SL guys perform.
