After seeing this, I don't mind at all if the 76ers get the 4th or 5th pick because this guy will be likely available.

Is it just me or can this guy shoot very deep 3s, while at the same time possessing extreme athleticism?

Embiid, Noel, Saric, and Hezonja?

We're talking EL ball here, not Australian high school ball, which Exum dominated.

Also, it's not the league, even though the EL is a tough and physical league which plays Fiba rules and full blown zones. You also have to see his Gordon Hayward skill set, with Zack Levine freak athleticism, and good size, and length.

I mean, when Lebron was in high school, no one said, it's just high school ball.This is an extreme example, but you get the point.

to clarify:
the highlights of that video are 99% from the ACB, which is the second best national/domestic league in the world (EL is a continental league).

I watch him every week Mario is easily a 3-5 pick (and after the NCAA finals I'd say he's easily top 1-3 talent), thing is though, he's full of himself, and it shows in his game, that might change once he arrives to the NBA though.

Okay thanks for that. I agree about Mario's draft placing. Not many would agree with this but one famous media personality in Philly named Spike Eskin has him no.1 on his big board with Mudiay going second.

I heard he has some defensive issues, but nothing that a tough, demanding NBA coach can't correct.

BTW, they say 76ers GM Sam Hinkie is always in the stands for Super Mario's games.:applause:

I fear he'll get over-hyped and go somewhere 4-7 in the draft. I think he could really blossom on a team without high expectations from him. His talent is undeniable, but adjustment to NBA is never easy. Could end up being a better Rudy Fernandez, but they also share diva complex, at least for now.

Not exactly. I say Philly goes for Mudiay, if he's still available.

I'm just saying it's unpredictable, and if we end up with this guy, it's all good. We can get our PG later on, and maybe even free agency.

Agreed. I will admit a few of the plays were quite eye popping. I wish more high school players went to Europe at times to see how they handle themselves with former NBA or top European talent.

Unless he's hiding Stocktonesque ability somewhere in that 6' frame, no, 76er fans are still looking for the franchise PG.

To be fair, Ish has been effective, and has made Noel even better than say, an MCW. Ish might stick around next season as a backup PG if he can improve his shooting.

Mudiay is a way truer PG than Russell. Russell is all flash IMO, Mudiay actually looks to pass way more on the break than score himself. In that way, he reminds me so much of Rondo. But for the Sixers, I think Russell is what you guys need. He gives you guy the needed jumpshooting, something that is sorely missing in Philly's backcourt. Mudiay has more potential and upside but he also has more negatives as a teenage prospect. I do think Russell will outshine Mudiay for a few years until Mudiay takes off in his 3rd or 4th season.

Good analysis.

This is a tough one. Hinkie normally goes for the highest ceiling so he may go for Mudiay, but yes, Russell would bring the quickest route to becoming relevant.

I bet that's your best shot for some info on them, as few posters here have watched their games this season (I'm no exception).

From what I've read, he's a cocky kid, so that's where the "attitude problems" start and end basically. He doesn't try as hard on defense if he feels he doesn't get enough touches or playing time. Doesn't have a great wingspan, but can play D the times he truly engages. Not lockdown, but he has enough physical talent to not be a total liability.

I'm intrigued by Mario, but haven't take a big look @ Kristaps for this draft.

It was actually clips from Euroleague, Spanish League, FIBA World Cup, and Spanish Cup.

Anyway, he's a very talented player. But he's honestly not that good right now. He proved to be really bad when the games got important. He could not handle the level at all of the Euroleague playoffs against Olympiacos and he was pretty much horrifically bad in that playoff series.

He has a lot of work to do. He is a very talented player, but he's a project. Those highlight clips are misleading.

Thanks, man. Just took a look at Draft Express. Lot of good information there.

Not really. I looked at Hezonja's strength's video and laughed at the defense part. They must have spent days compiling those clips, searching the whole season just to find those few........

He is a horrible defender. Draftexpress is basically doing what they always do. Just putting out a lot of bullshit nonsense to generate hype to get revenues.

"Rubio is next Steve Nash"

"Mirotic is next Dirk".

and numerous more such examples.

blah blah blah blah

And no matter how many times someone like me called out their bullshit here, I was always called a "liar" and a "hater" and a "troll" by basically the whole forum for doing so. Even though every single time I am proven right and they are exposed as just hyping and nothing else.

Hezonja really is a very talented player and I would take him high in the lottery if I was a picking, but he's getting absurdly overrated. Especially how people talk about his athletic level, which honestly isn't even anything special in Euroleague at all.

There are all kinds of players in Euroleague that are much more athletic than him. But people are talking about him like he is some kind of super freak athlete or something. People really need to stop basing a player's level on YouTube highlights and watch actual games. Especially for players from Europe that they never saw play before.

You would think people would have learned already from Rubio.

Vesely is a good player though in his own way. The Wizards just did not know what the hell they were doing.

He did OK when he was in Partizan, I never thought he was that good, but OK. He is doing pretty good now in Fenerbache, although he still has some issues. But his coach there is using him better. Still not exactly the way he should be used though.

The way his national team uses him - that is the proper way I think to use him. He can be a very effective player if he was used that way. The Wizards and the Nuggets for that matter had no freaking clue what to do with him.

Really, I don't even think the teams he has played for in Europe have much clue how to use him either. He just gets more playing time.

He can't shoot and his free throw problems are a huge liability. So if you have him in your team then you know that. So why the hell select such players then if you don't want them? I don't understand teams that select guys like that. Don't select them then.

You know the guy can't freaking shoot and is a liability that way so then don't freaking select him to your team if you don't want guys that can't shoot.

But I do think he can be very effective as an offensive rebounder and a pick and roll defender and weak side and off ball shot blocker. That is how his national team uses him and he is very effective. They just accept that he can't shoot and can't really do much of anything other than dunk.

If you wanted something more then don't take such a player. But if you take him, then use him in a way he can be effective. Vesely can be extremely good at certain things, and he gets a bad rep and bashed on for no reason other than having some incompetent coaches.

Stop trolling. And stop being a moron.

He is simply getting more playing time and has a somewhat competent coach and a point guard that can get him some open looks on dives to the basket.

If anything, if he was used how his national team used him, he could average way more than that in any league, and he still could not hit a shot past 5 feet.

Giannis can't dribble, can't create a shot, can't score, can't shoot, etc. As of now, he's a total POS player.

Hezonja is a project and is struggling like hell, was second worst player of his team in the Euroleague playoffs, got a new asshole torn for him by Spanoulis in those same playoffs, and he's already better than both Mirotic and Giannis are.

Vesely has major flaws and those are always there. But he is not as bad as you clowns claim. He is actually very good at a few things. Just as he is very bad at some things.

To say he is not, just further proves how horrific the lack of basketball knowledge here is.

oh, so I assume you watched a bunch of his Wizards games:rolleyes:

He had two skills. Offensive rebounds and PnR defense.

He:

-was too skinny to defend post ups
-too dumb to defend 1 on 1 (always fouled any quick big)
-Too weak in his lower body to get defensive rebounds
-0 shooting ability
-0 dribbling ability
-couldn't finish around the rim because NBA players aren't going to let him finish over them. Foul, Whistle, Bricks

He was a liability that you could attack constantly. Whoever was "defending" him just left him alone, because he couldn't shoot and even if he got the ball around the rim, unless it was an alley-oop he was going to get hacked and sent to the line. So he ruins your offense, then gets attacked by every big with an ounce of scoring ability or strength.

I watched 3/4 of his games for the Wizards. I'm assuming he can see the floor in EL because in that league he can actually finish plays that people create for him, instead of panicking as some athletic beast flys over to smack the shit out of him.

Mirotic is exactly what I said he would be. A mega softie that Thibodeau would only want to play if someone threatened to break his legs.

Giannis can't dribble, can't create a shot, can't score, can't shoot, etc. As of now, he's a total POS player.

Hezonja is a project and is struggling like hell, was second worst player of his team in the Euroleague playoffs, got a new asshole torn for him by Spanoulis in those same playoffs, and he's already better than both Mirotic and Giannis are.

Lay off the drugs clown.

Going by this logic prime V-Span would dominate the NBA.

Spanoulis is way better than Curry. So yes, he would easily dominate the NBA.

And all this "prime Spanoulis" talk here is absurd. He gets better every single year idiot.

Those are the only two skills he has in any league, along with wide open dunks and off the ball shot blocking you idiot.

STOP TROLLING

IGNORE LIST

LAY OFF THE CRACK PIPE

I know you won't ignore me, you love the attention.

The difference is, in the NBA those two skills couldn't keep him on the court, whereas in EL he can play because those two skills outweigh his weakness at that level. He was a constant liability in the NBA, FACT FACT FACT FACT. I ****ing guarantee you I watched more Wizards games from that period than ANYONE on this forum

I dare you to ****ing tell me you were streaming wizards games in bum**** Arkansas when they were a 20-26 win team

Looks kindof Lebronesque, how big is he?

6'8 I believe...

Now I haven't seen him in a real game, but just from those highlights, he looks like he is blessed with tremendous talent. Heard from another who is a scout in Europe that Mario was given limited playing time during crucial stretches in the playoffs so he can drop from the NBA lottery and force him to re-sign in Europe.

Interesting hypothesis, but same scout said that mario can't wait to get out of Europe and play in the NBA. He says he is a very confident young man to the point of being cocky.

Who wouldn't be cocky with that type of athleticism?

He's a really talented player and he has the talent to be damn good. But some of the people in this thread are bat shit crazy.

Dr.J4ever continues to prove with each post, that he has always been, along with gabepizza and Rooster, one of the biggest trolls of all time in this forum.

Anyone comparing him to LeBron, or claiming he was benched by his coach because his team did not want him to get drafted, or saying he has one of a kind freak level athleticism, is certifiably insane.

Damn.. the kid can jump out the gym off of one leg. :eek: But aside from that he's not super quick, agile and not too sure about his first step. Could be the next Demar Derozan (which isn't a good thing).

And why not? Not everybody is going to be a Curry/Bron/KD level player. If he can get to a Dizzmar level that is pretty excellent. He would be in that tier of players that has the potential to be great, while still being quite good - that is all you can hope to expect from a drafted player.

Just so we're clear here:
You are going on record saying that Vassilis "32%" Spanoulis is a better SHOOTER (amongst other things) than STEPHEN CURRY?

When I see Curry start getting 3-4 defenders assigned to him the whole game in every game he plays, then you can bring the question up again. Until then, it's not even a discussion.

So V-Span has 3-4 defenders assigned to him at one time ? Wow he is better than I thought. :bowdown:

How the hell is he anything at all like Rudy Fernandez? They play nothing at all like each other and Rudy is much better on defense and much more athletic. Also, Hezonja is a much better shooter than Rudy is.

If you think Hezonja is "Rudy 2.0", then your basketball IQ is clearly in the negative range.
