    A couple people on here said landesburg was damn near a lock to go first round or maybe just maybe very high second round. Of course they were higher on him then scouts we’re. Not suprising. I never really watched Garcia so I didn’t say much about him but I said landesburg would be lucky to go second round. I am suprised s.Collins wasn’t drafted or the Torrence kid. Or Reynolds although I heard there are a couple teams saying they will
    most likely sign him

    I wasn’t shocked that Collins didn’t get drafted. He came to the combine overweight, and being overweight at 5’11” in the NBA is not a good thing at all, remember Khalid El-Amin. That’s not to say I don’t think Collins would make for a good backup point guard b/c I think he would, but he needs to lose weight. Torrance really surprised me, but I heard he has a heart condition that showed up in his physical.

    You were right about Landesburg. Pack yourself on the back.

    I said the week before the draft Collins wasn’t getting any love because he came to a NJ workout at 222lbs.

    I think if the Clips wouldn’t have traded for Bledsoe they would have considered Collins with their late 2nd round pick, but gaining 5 pounds of fat in a week because you tweak your groin and can’t run as much is about as big of a red flag as possible. I like Collins, he is a feirce competitor and has improved his point abilities every year in college, but he’d always frustrate me when he showed up to summer drills at KU 20 lbs overweight, I thought he had his head on straight, but it’s the same old stuff with SC4 ( great comparison Cole, haha, that was so dumb ) I still think he’ll make a roster, but his continued weight issues really make me a lot more skeptical than I was a month ago.

    I hope it is nothing serious that would not allow him to play in the long term. I would think it may be an irregular heartbeat or something. I think if that is the case he will get signed somewhere and fill a nice role.
