All those bigs are good. Sheldan Williams will end up top 5 in the lottery. Paul Millsap is a Ben Wallace type C, undersized, probably play the 4, but he is rugged, an Oakley Wallace dare I say Rodman type rebounder. Jason Smith is a guy who will come on this year and has an outside chance at a 1 pick, but so do a lot of guys right now, there is no clear cut 1. I noticed Smith watching Bogut. He's the same height as Bogut, but he's more athletic, but with less skill and weight. One of the first things you notice is that the guy gives 110% and he can do things at 7 feet+--like handle the ball,we'll have to see. Id expect him to be in the 20-10 range this year and people will know his name by the end of the NCAA year. A lot of these guys you can classify as 4-5. I like that kid from Indiana DJ White too, but hes more power 3.
Briggs, what are your thoughts on Josh Boone? To me, that kid looks like the next Duncan/BWallace player on the defensive end. totally raw on offense, but he seems like a game changer on D to me. Just wondering what you thought, being a lot closer to the Uconn world. I would love to get that kid. I'd suffer through another 30 win season to get him...
i need another year to evaluate. he has all the goods, including the potential to be a very good offensive player with a soft touch and his 7-5 wingspan. he started out the season looking like HE could possibly be pick 1 in last years draft, but really fell off when he got sick and was having problems with asthma and his meniscus flared up. So he was probably playing at 75% for 2/3rds of the year. Both him and Armstrong put on a lot of muscle this offseason. People tell me that Armstrong is 7-0 260 right now, and if he is, he could easily sneak up into the late first round area since he will be getting abundant pT
