Zombie A 'Vanderbilt' player I think we should look into

[Blazer4ever]

#3, Festus Ezeli, 6-11 Center from Nigeria. Sets very good picks, plays excellent defense and can score inside.

 

[MickZagger]

meh. I like Jeffrey Taylor more.

 

[Blazer4ever]

Taylor is #44, right? He's a very good scorer but I like what Ezeli can give us. I see him as a Center in the Joel/Camby mold in the way that his focus is mostly on defense/rebounds and helping his teammates on offense by setting smart, hard screens. He's a smart, TEAM player, on both ends of the floor, and has a good combination of massive frame and good atheletic ability.
I respect your opinion, especially when it comes to college players, and if you get a chance to watch another Vanderbilt game, I recommend you watching him more closely. I searched for his stats online and they're far from impressive, Taylor fills up the stat sheet, he doesn't. Mostly because he doesn't play too many minutes. His +/- numbers should tell the story but I couldn't find them. I think he could be a guy that wouldn't go very high in the draft, maybe not even in the first-round - because he stays under the rader #s-wise, but could be another Dante/Armon for us.

 

[Blazer4ever]

His numbers from the game against Marquette: 5-7 FG (12 points), 4 Rebounds, 3 Blocks and one steal in 20 minutes.

Enes Kanter please.

 

[BrianFromWA]

If we trade Batum for a PG or young big, then Chris Singleton will probably be available for one of our picks

 

[MickZagger]

I'll keep an eye out for Ezeli.

But, yeah, a guy I talk to who knows a ton about college and prep basketball told me that if he had the #1 pick he'd take Enes Kanter. I didn't really know much about him until he showed me some video. I'm sold. Guy is a 7 footer who has post moves and range like know other footer in awhile.

I think there's some good gets in this draft.

 

[Blazer4ever]

Just gonna leave it here

Now that was a good and timely bump.....

There is literally never a good and timely bump.

Unless it's uglies you're bumping.

 

[Sarni]

Can't believe Klay Thompson and Kawhi Leonard were both below #10 in that draft. Jackson and Butler did not even make 20.

Aren't you guys supposed to frown on this BS

Serious question. I thought we weren't supposed to do this?

I'm not a mod. I keep asking them to remove my status but they never do.

What's wrong with bumping threads? Denny pays for the server space to archive these posts for that reason.

Some people don't like it because the get old threads confused with new threads, that why I added the Zombie thread tag so people can easily tell this is an old thread.

I always have found it odd that the mods pick on people, warranted or not. I don't know why, maybe I tend to view them as a position of authority that should be better than that? Not saying you guys should be, just maybe how I have viewed you guys. Like when my kids have a sleep over, as the authority figure, I would never pick on one of the kids. Something I need to work on, I guess?

I have to realize that even though I bump a thread and it gets locked and I get a warning, others can do it with no problem. This isn't a victim post, I'm sure it happens to others as well, both ways. Again, just something I need to work on

Like I don't care that anyone bumps a thread, I guess I just don't understand why some are ok, and others aren't?

It used to be against the rules. I know I've had some locked and told not to do it any longer.

Kingspeed has as well, I believe

If I remember right you went on some rant and started bumping old Kingspeed threads because you were upset.

Nope. I have never bumped a thread after the one that got locked and got me a warning. No biggie. Like I said, I could have sworn I was told it's frowned upon and against the rules. I must be mistaken
