I actually think Wiggins caught a good break. He'll be able to develop his talents better with Rubio who's more of a distributor than with Irving and can be one of the Wolves' main weapons. Wiggins lacks aggression at the moment but that will grow with Rubio passing to him constantly.

I hope Randle does well. He's already showing some promise.


Ya, much better fit for him. He's currently a finisher...a guy that isn't going to break many people down off of the dribble, but can shoot, score around the hoop, and draw FTAs.

Minny's highlights are going to be must-see TV this year, even if they aren't an especially good team.

Stauskas and McBucketts are going to be very solid pros.

Marcus Smart likely will be a very good role-player at best..... he doesn't look Impressive at all.

Parker looking really good.
Bucks got lucky that the Cavs didn't pick him.

Clearly the most skillful player in the draft.
The way he plays gives me the impression that he has the ability to control the pace of a game and take over it. I don't see that in Wiggins. Not yet anyway.

Parker will be ROY. His offensive game is so polished, and he's only 20.

McDermott is a killer shooter, but I can't imagine him playing defense or rebounding with the Lakers current roster.

At least he has Noah and the length of Gasol behind him.

Randle. 24 minutes. 17 points. 8 rebounds. 7-10 fg's.

And the guy can take it coast to coast.

Instead of a PF, he reminds me more of a Lebron type big body SF style of play.
