Edit: Outside of Henson, none of those guys excites me too much. Gates looks like the next Tractor Traylor.


I think Henson is going to shine in his workout. It'd be cool if we could setup a Henson versus Drummond matchup

I like Drew Gordon. One of the best players on the New Mexico team. He has good value in the second round. I think Tractor is bigger than Gates, and probably more skilled as well.
 
Gates is solid big man who is not very skilled but is very physical. Might be an option for summer league and training camp at least. Doubt he will be drafted though.

Yeah, I'm sure we'll have all the top guys in, except Davis I imagine. And maybe Beal given that he is playing "if I don't work out for teams I bbecome more valuable!" games. Then the next place we're looking is for guys in the early 2nd round, so I would imagine be a lot of uninspiring sounding names coming through as we look for a diamond in the rough.

Zeller is up tomorrow...


You know, if I had been bringing Henson in I wouldn't have done any of that stuff. I would just have hired/brought in the biggest, strongest, meanest, ugliest 6'8"+ musclebound thug I could find, give Danny Fortson a call maybe and ask him if he wants to earn a little quick change, and then have Henson play him 1 on 1. If he could handle my thug bouncing his skinniness all over the paint and still find ways of being effective, I keep him on my list. If he snaps in two at the first beefy shoulder into his chest or gets backed right under the hoop by my thug's big beefy booty everytime he posts up, then he's off my list. Its the question erveryone has with him, so might as well get it answered before you bother with the less important details of how his 18 footer looks.
