Marquis Teague is gonna be a steal


Seeing the combine results, I am now hoping for a pick in the 20's to get him and use our others on bigs or a SG

couple things that stood out to me. Kendall Marshall actually slightly faster that Lillard in the sprint but a lot slower in the agility drill. Myles Plumlee incredibly fast time in the agility drill (Drummond too), beat many if not most of the guards!

I believe that's lane agility, and most of the big men do well because it's one step for them. Plumlee would be a decent pick in the second round

Harrison Barnes jumped 38 inches flat-footed. That's by far the best result this year and the 4th best ever in our DB:

not necessarily, compare some of the other bigs times. Sullinger was simply awful in the agility and sprint times. Plumlee was Top 5 of all tested, only a few guards beat him

As many suspected, there was an issue w/the original measurements the NBA released. Standing reaches were off by .5 to an inch. We're fixing

I'll take heart over height any day.

This is such an important point. All things equal, take the guy with the drive and confidence to will his team to win. Even if all things aren't equal, there is a certain continuum where heart and killer instinct trump natural ability. It's not always clear where to draw that line, but if two players are even close in value, take the guy who will eat his opponent's heart on the court. And chase it with a nice Chianti.

To me, Bayless was that guy, and everyone here hated him

Bayless has drive and a little talent, but he's not a starter for a good team. There were a lot of babies getting thrown out with each bucket of bath water in our PGOTF search.

He could be had for a reasonable price I'm sure. Would you trade the 11 or the 6 for your man crush?
 
Lillard will have trouble finishing in traffic as well.....

No, but I also wouldn't rule out that he would be better than what we get at #11
 
O'Quinn previously had a 9'3 or so standing reach, now he declined 5 inches?
 
From the combine #'s, Tony Wroten's results kind of stand out. Long wing span, agile, and fast.
 
Some odd results on the sprint and agility. Overall, I thin Marshall came up with some decent numbers. Not great, but not as bad as some expected. Barnes was also more athletic than I thought he would be. Drummond was amazing.

In the end, I think this helped Barnes and Marshall the most. Teague, maybe, but we already knew he was a good athlete. The question is can he run a team.

And zero reps on the bench press. Not exactly the end all for a PG prospect, but . . .

Also, Henson probably dropped himself a bit. Couldn't jump in either test. Only 5 reps on the bench. Even PJIII hat 11 reps.

Barnes has a higher standing reach than Leonard????
 
I think these results will keep Barnes from falling out of the top 5. Not sure if that is good or bad.

not higher standing reach. Higher max, including jump.

0 bench didn't seem to hurt Durant much.

You'd think that as Blazer fans especially, we would not care about this.

Wroten might find himself in the late lotto with these #s.

Dude has a "broken shot" according to scouts. He will be lucky to go in the first round IMO

I don't know. Marshall's agility time was very bad, sprint was okay
