    Bullock is entering the draft after all.

    http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nba–sources–unc-s-reggie-bullock-declaring-for-nba-draft-021029928.html

    Looks like the SF position at UNC is wide open for a certain SF phenom from Canada. What does Bullock know that we don’t.

    Hate to see him go. He was the most consistent player on last years team, and he is surely going to be missed. Hopefully he finds the right team and gets to play a role similar to another former Tarheel in Danny Green.

    Would be a great pick for the Jazz at 20-21 with the GSW pick they will get.

    That’s why Tony Wroten left last year

    If he knows Wiggins is coming to Chapel Hill, that’s probably the right decision. Because that would move Hairston to the shooting guard and then he’d be getting limited minutes as a senior which kills your draft stock.

    Terrible decision Bullock! Im not sure how good of an NBA player he would be, but that shot of his and defense would help him stay in the league, I just don’t see him getting picked until the very late first round or early second, in this weak draft he could go higher maybe than what I thought……….might be str8 to the DLeague, wonder where he got his info from, hopefully he will withdraw his name soon enought but if not I wish Bullock the best.

    I was hoping to see a lineup with McAdoo, Wiggins, Bullock, Hairston, and Paige…… That would be an extremely athletic team that could really put points on the board

    I know its not a good thing comparing a Tar Heel player with a Blue Devil one,but i see Bullock as a Shane Battier kind of player…

      lol if you say so. Bullock is like Battier without the leadership skills, intangibles, IQ, and defense.

    UNC is going to miss that 3pt shooting; that’s for sure. Good luck to him.

    I’m willing to suspect the reason for him leaving is not because Wiggins is coming, but for personal reasons (such as having a kid) an because he thinks he’s ready. Remember guys, Bullock was a highly touted all-american that came to UNC with guys like Barnes, Marshall etc. You can argue how good or NBA ready they are, but they all had (NBA in 1-4 years) written all over them.

    Personally, I think if Wiggins is going to the ACC, he’ll go play with his best friend and parent’s former school FSU, but we’re all still speculating here.

    Bullock is a very solid player. I’d definitely take him at the back of round 1. His length, defense and 3 pt shooting will play in this league for a while.

    I actually think Hairston shoul’ve come out. I think he would’ve shot up the draft boards after a closer examination.

    He’s as ready as would be next yr outside of an extra yr of weight training. His skills are polished and he’s already experienced in the role that he’d be playing at the next level. He can defend, shoot, handle the ball some and is a fine passer. Whoever drafts him will be getting a rotation player unless they’re already deep at the wings.

    its a shame Roy’s offense wasnt better structured. you didnt get to see the best of Bullock at UNC. rarely any plays were ran in the half court set….for anyone, him or Hairston. he’s a much better prospect than Wayne Ellington although he may not be picked as high in a weaker draft.

    I always say if there is an NBA player I compare him to, its a less athletic version of Rip Hamilton. he is a good sized athletic wing who can shoot and defend. the one dynamic he is missing that Hamilton did so well is movement without the ball. if someone works with him on that, he is going to be a good player.
