Don't recall them ever doing that....they each have scouting report with stats and insight.

What do you guys think of these players?

I think Houston and Toronto will go after all of those players.

Then we'll go after the players we really wanted.

Just like that sneaky Kerr smokescreen.

Russ is a player. He didn't test well athletically, but he was a demon on the court and he never backs down. Nick Johnson kinda reminds me of Jarreod Bayless. Johnson probably isn't as explosive as Bayless, but he's a better defender and shooter than Bayless was at the same stage. Spencer Dinwiddle is a tall combo guard who can create off the pick and roll and hit a midrange J. He would probably be a first rounder if he wasn't coming of an injury. Haven't seen much of Market Brown but the dude has 43.5 vert. It looks like he's a decent three point shooter.

never seen this guy play but at 6'6"....he looks a lot like Cater-Williams.....The Brian Shaw comparison I guess is fair though

Thanasis seems like a player too....the potential to be a big time defensive/energy guy....Bruce Bowen is a fair comparison....he's 6'6" and probably a small fwd...his wing span is like a 7 footer

Nick Johnson has some good talent...I can see him floating around....in a different draft he would be a first rounder

When marcus smart went down brown avg 23-5-5 for 3 games if they could make him a pg at 6-4 it would be interesting I'm thinking were going to get two of hairston robinson powell or jefferson

No I mean do you think Larkin can be better than those 2? Seems like that's what you were implying and if so I'm one happy camper

Johnson actually impressed me a lot with his explosiveness. I wouldn't mind having a guy like him on the roster.

He's saying there's no need to go all David Khan here. Smith and Johnson do a lot of the same things that Larkin does, so there's no need to duplicate their skills. I wouldn't mind bringing in Johnson because of his defense though. It looks like we're still going to need help guarding PGs next season.

Russ smith dad.. Russel smith SR. used to play on the same basketball team as I did as kids. He lived in the building next to me. I hope his son is drafted.. his dad was a gritty player, played with a lot of confidence..
