    Perry Jones will be the best player that comes out of this draft. If you don’t feel that way please give me a thumbs down, because when the time comes that it’s proven to be true, I want to see how many people were nonbelievers

     because I agree he as the most or next to the most upside in this draft…..could be a matchup nightmare…..but it could easily go the other way as well…..alot of times a low motor can equal a low work ethic…..the two aren’t exactly hand in hand but could be related……if he doesn’t give it his all on the court he may not give it his all in pratice or in the weight room either…..

    I can name 5 guys I KNOW will be WAY better than him

    Anthony Davis- if he puts on 20 more pounds and gets buff and stout, meet the next KG with guard skills, essentially a 25pts-12reb-5ast-2.5blks-1.5stl

    Michael Kidd-Gilchrist- ultimate basketball player, his stats wont tell his career but he will go down as one of the best winners in the NBA I can see him having the most rings out of everyone in the draft 15pts-9rebs-2.5stls-1.5blks

    Harrison Barnes- more athletic, better overall, more range version of Luol Deng 22pts-6rebs-50%-40%-90%

    Jared Sullinger- beast power forward 18pts-10rebs- 55+% from the field

    Quincy Miller- KD-lite 24pts, very efficient and effective

    When is this huge upside gonna start showing? He’s tall, athletic, can dribble and has a nice looking shot, but if you dont show up in games then what good are you? I’m tired of seeing all these guys who can run and jump and people assuming they have "potential". The guy is 6’11 and has skills, but he constantly disapears. Idk how people can think hes going to stop disapearing if the level of competition keeps going up.

    I agree with 4 out of your 5. Personally i dont see anything that will tell me Quincy Miller will score 24 per game. He is not even close to the athlete Durant is. He cannot Ballhandle as good as him and he definately doesnt have the range as him. Miller has a PF’s skillset and he isnt as tall as Durant is. Miller is 6’9 210. I could see him playing PF but i dont know how that would work against the powerful players in the nba. Miller is very slowfooted and gets no height on his jumpshot. I know he is just coming off ACL surgery and hopefully he can get some athleticism back but for now i dont see it.

    I think Barnes can get to 22ppg in his career but definately not at the level of efficiency you have him at. Maybe 45-36-85. Barnes is slow footed but is really explosive jumping and with hard work i feel like he will be unguardable in the midrange because he can just shoot over the top of everyone.

    I feel Kidd Gilchrist will be better than you think he will. I see him as being a perrenial all star a Pippen clone. When have you seen a player with his heart and determination combined with his athleticism and tools not turn out to be great?

    Wich is why his team is in it. The system does not suit him but he plays to win not prove do doubters that he is number 1. Nothing is certain but I don’t take any of these guys before him. Austin Rivers sacrificed his game to and scouts see that.
