    The last couple years someone that was projected to go in the lottery leading up to the draft and then either had some medical problem (Dejuan Blair) or was a lot more of a raw talent than people thought after going through workouts (Hassan Whiteside, DeAndre Jordan).  Does anybody see that kind of fall from anyone this year?

    No one from the lottery, but I think there will be some underrated players taken high in the draft.

    Well, Jeremy Tyler was projected to be the no.1 pick before his decision to go overseas. But I honestly believe that if the Heat are able to get Jeremy Tyler, Josh Selby, or even Nikola Mirotic to fall to them, then byebye decade.(Or in Mirotic’s case, half decade, because of his nasty contract situation) But, I have a gut feeling Sam Presti will show us his briliance and snag either one of the three at 24. Imagine if Jeremy Tyler really is a no.1 pick worthy player, that is a dynasty.

    Tyler might have played in Tokyo, but you also have to remember he was being coach by Bob Hill, a former Nba coach, who i am sure taught him a few things. So you might be right if he still has all that potential we will find

    Jeremy Tyles, Nikola Mirotic, or Josh Selby will not change a decade of basketball. Thats overrating players at its finest.

    Trey Thompkins was a projected top 10 pick a few months back, now he’s a projected late first to early second round pick. Draftexpress has him going 40th.

    First off, its ridiculous to say Jeremy Tyler or Josh Selby is going to SWING THE DECADE for the Heat. Secondly, the Bulls own the Heat’s pick, so it doesnt matter anyway.

    No, the 1st round is too weak as it is.  Selby is not projected in the lottery but I dont think he slips to 2nd round, no way.

    the closest thing to a Dejuan Blair as in being a shocker I would have to say is Fredette….he just could slip, but even thats hard to imagine.  Next guess would be Markieff Morris.

    After measurements came up a little short he looks like a bit of a tweener, add the fact that he just isn’t a finished product, and I could see him fall quite a bit.
