Everyone knows who he is.

That said, he's A LOT more athletic than I had previously thought. I just figured he was a quick dude, but some of those dunks were crazy. :eek:

I know people know who he is. I feel like most people seem to put him a tier down from the three I mentioned. I feel he is right there with them. Glad this impressed you :cheers:

He looks kinda like a young afro-less kobe.

People are sleeping on the boy Randle, though. If he does become that more athletic Z-Bo, he's going to be a monster.

Embiid better not say another year. Make the draft amazing. :coleman:

Marcus Smart is better than Exum and Anderson. Exum = Parker 2.0

Smart is who? The next Wade?

A bigger Tony Parker > anything Smart can become.

For me prime Wade > Parker at hes best.
And Smart is save pick. Exum has highest bust risk in the draft.

Bigger Patrick Mills? Shane Heal, Andrew Gaze?

The chance that Smart gets to a prime Wade level is at best 0,01%

The only thing Smart has over Exum is his body strength.

You talk about busts yet you think there is even a chance of Smart being Wade. :roll:

i think if he lives up to the hype and become atleast an all star we might get NBA on our national tv stations again :cheers:

Slow-mo :applause:
I really really like his game since his HS days.
Very happy with his production this season compared to his freshman year. I'm not sure how his game will translate in the NBA though.

what about his game reminds you of parker? ive never heard that comp before

If anyone is gonna bust in the top 9, it's Smart. Or perhaps I'm just biased against undersized combo guards. No elite athleticism, broken shot.

Lightning fast and gets to the rim at will. Supposed to be a PG but does his damage scoring the ball.

he has to pull a Kobe and say that only comes to play with nba spurs, with their compatriots mills and baynes

Hard to explain but...he looks so slow until he suddenly looks fast. Perhaps hes just...graceful? Like Randy Moss...cant really tell how fast hes moving until everyone is 10 yards behind him.

A lot of young Australian talent is coming through at the moment. Hopefully they all help to get the NBA back on our tv's.

Ben Simmons is another guy to watch out for. He's from around my area and I have met him before at a party. Nice guy and a great basketball player.

Thon Maker is turning heads as well.

I played against Ben Simmons' school team. He carried that team like I've never seen before.

there is a pretty big fall off after that top 7. any of those 7 could easily be an all-star, after that, going by draftexpress's mock draft, is vonleh, cauley stein, harris, saric, and mcdermott, and i cant see any of those guys becoming all-stars.
