    He is what he is. His ceiling is a defensive anchor who won't hurt you on offense. A valuable asset no doubt, but someone that should be taken in the top 3, even in a weak draft - i say no.

    Seriously? He has no moves to speak of. He often gets the ball and has no idea what to do with it. His hands are average at best. He doesn't box out. He's a very good shot blocker with good instincts there, but aside from that, gotta say I actually have a point.

    Defense may be very important here, but despite how many capital letters and exclamation points you type a lot of people are not going to be convinced that Thabeet is the answer to that problem. Despite the fact that he is huge, if he looks uncoordinated and lost in college on a consistent...

    Griffin or Rubio????

    One aspect to consider in the Rubio debate: what will be available at the position next year. With the position becoming increasingly athletic going forward, will Rubio be able to hang? And if that is in question, should we take Griffin this year and then John Wall next year? I guess the...

    Harden is nowhere to be found right now. He is being extremely passive; standing around and just being all around ineffective for his team. If i didn't know any better I'd say that he looks uninterested. I've liked him when I've seen him this year, but not today.

    Griffin or Thompson

    well first of all, as they were talking about above, i was saying that griffin would be drafted above those guys if he were in their drafts given the prospect that he currently is. but regardless of that, id still say griffin will be much better than gordon or love. (i didnt mention brook lopez...

    Griffin or Thompson

    Are you serious? in the '07 draft you would have taken jeff green, yi, corey brewer, brandan wright, noah, and spencer before griffin? thats wild. Furthermore, you would have taken kevin love, gallinari, eric gordon, and joe alexander before griffin? im glad you're not running the team! But in...

    Rubio articles/discussion (merged)

    Q. Will you declare yourself for the upcoming draft or will you wait at least one more year? R. That's one decision I haven't taken yet and that I'll talk with my parents. I want to focus now in my team (DKV Joventut) with whom I still have a contract, and when time comes up we'll take a...

    Ed Davis

    Anyone seen much of this kid coming off the bench for North Carolina? Hes a 6'9" freshman PF with length. In 19 minutes hes putting up 6.3 pts, 7 rebs, and 1.7 blks. (this being scouting for a future draft)

    Rubio renegotiating buyout may enter in 2009

    In regard to the original topic of this thread (that Ricky may be entering this draft): Ricky Rubio, PG, Spain Rubio isn't dominating in Spain, but he's getting better and better by the game. A number of NBA scouts and executives are just getting back from Spain and, after watching Rubio play in...

    Rubio renegotiating buyout may enter in 2009

    So you watch that video and one of your main complaints about him is lack of foot speed? Do you think the Euro's are just that slow? Also, with his ball handling ability he's going to be able to beat his man in the NBA.

    Mccants & Diogu

    Wow I saw a lot that I liked in that video. And while anyone can look good on a highlight video, that was A) all in the nba B) all in one year and C) he doesnt get much playing time so there was a lot to like from a relatively small sample..

    Teague vs. Rubio

    Alright first of all, i never said he was a great defender, I was only trying to push back against you saying hes a horrible one. Second of all, no he didn't look that great against CP3 which is what I stated in my original argument. Third, hes not as quick as Paul and Rose so he probably...

    Teague vs. Rubio

    First of all, why on earth are people accepting as a truth that if you have a pass first point guard then that means in the end of the game he has to be the guy to shoot or get someone else a shot? That is simply ludicrous. If a team is going to be at the contending level there is going to be...

    ESPN taking note on JT's crying

    Does anyone here ask JT questions on Twitter? Someone should ask him if he posts, or if he would post on KF.

    ESPN taking note on JT's crying

    Haha that is pretty telling.. Seriously though I find myself telling my TV to stop whining about the calls at least once every game. It's my least favorite part about JT right now.

    Greg Monroe - Power Forward from Georgetown

    can we turn this into a "top PF's aside from Blake Griffin b/c everyone knows his strengths and weaknesses already" thread? How do people think Monroe stacks up against Hill, Brackins?
