    How was he not selected? Just because he played at Radford? he really proved himself against some great teams.23 14 and 3 against Duke and 21 13 and 2 against KU?? he dominated all year. im upset about this. and upset for Sharron Collins and Scottie Reynolds

    Parakhouski’s stiffness and lack of athleticism, he wasn’t really mobile, that ‘scared’ scouts..but I agree with you he did dominate and did well against Kansas and national champs Duke, I thought a team should of took a chance..

    Same with Sherron Collins, born leader, born winner, but height and weight seemed to scare teams away..

    As for Scottie Reynolds, not so sure, I dont think he’s much of an NBA at all, can’t really even defend for him. He’s basically an undersized, ball-dominating shooting guard, with little to none play making abilities, defensive liability, and bad shot selection, though he amde a few of them in college, thats not gonna fly in the NBA

    I was so upset that Artsiom Parakhouski wasn’t drafted. He’s such a skilled player that could really help out NBA teams and dominate on the boards and in the post.

    However, at least that leaves him as an option for my Timberwolves to possible sign him sometime in the near future.

    Collins, Parahouski, Scheyer and a couple moreplayers should get interest from at least 20 NBA teams and many many European teams. I still se Collins going to Milwaukee.Parahouski would fit in well with the Spurs or Suns.Scheyer could go to Indiana New York.Lots of possibitllities this Free Agency and Summer League should eb exciting.

    Artsiom Parakhouski will play for Boston’s summer league team in Orlando and then needs to decide who to play for in Vegas.

    He’ll be in the league.

    I see what you mean with scottie. i can see why teams didnt take a chance but i jsut think after all he did at Nova in 4 years and proving himself against solid teams that someone should have atleast taken a chance. guys that that Ryan Reid dude who the pacers drafted are wasted draft picks for guys like Reynolds, Scheyer, Art and many others. i do however think Scottie could possibly do ok as a backup. He has alot of heart and is fearless and that can take you a ways. but im not shocked noone drafted him, just upset. Art however im pretty surprised as well as collins. Glad hes on Bostons summer league team though

    A.J. Ogilvy, a long time first round darling of NBADraft.net, who doesn’t belong in the NBA, wasn’t drafted. Does anyone know if he stayed in the draft or returned to school?

    Reynolds is better than every guard on your team…If you knew anything about basket ball you would know it’s not all about verticals and 3 point range…or wingspan and explosiveness

    Zeke – Yeah, I agree. Guys like Ryan Reid, Magnum Rolle, Jeremy Evans probably shouldnt have been given chances ahead of Reynolds. But it happened, and 30 NBA teams didnt pass on him because hes got baby momma drama.

    ScareCrow – I never said anything about his vertical, 3 point range, wingspan OR explosiveness. I gave legit reasons as to why I think hes not an NBA player, so you might wanna look at what I wrote and actually try and make an argument against it.

    Keep in mind, he went undrafted for a reason…

    ITs funny how scouts & so called experts these days say there too many 7 footers that play like guards..But label some 7 feet post players that clogged the lane and play with their back to the basket as slow & not athletic enough..
