Moe and the 2012 Draft

Why didn't he wait as long as he could to declare for the draft to see how the rest of the class looked?

Two words:

NATE BLUE

Sometime... when Im on the bus... or in a car... and I start readin sometin... my stomach starts actin up.

All it takes is one team in order to be drafted high!

“@jeffborzello: Washington's Terrence Ross will hire an agent, enter NBA draft: http://t.co/fN5h2Cxr”

@“@TheRecruitScoop: Syracuse sophomore center Fab Melo has declared for the 2012 NBA Draft, according to @DraftExpress.”

Guess law school not an option!

Paultzman - two things- love the screen name, I met The Whooper a few times when I was a little kid, was great..!!

Who gets drafted higher..  Fab Melo or Moe Harkless.?

I know your question wasn't directed at me, but DraftExpress does a pretty good job and is up to date with who is in, who is staying.  They have Harkless going #22 and Melo going #34.  So much can change between now and then but hopefully Moe has some great workouts.

IMO Fab

Good athleticism?
No question he improved tremendously from Fresh to Soph year in that category but to me he still has aways to go there.  And competing vs NBA big men is light years tougher than the challenges he faced in College.

Completely agree---   I feel like Harkless is really in a touhh spot. He is solid at a lot of things but not exceptionally at anything at this point and needs a year m ore of development.

Also, he was showcased this year in a fashion that might not have been available to him at other schools. He doesn't put up thosse numbers this year at other schools and I don't think he puts up those numbers this year if we had all of our players eleigible at the beginning of the year.

I wish the kid all the success in the world and I hope he gets taken in the Lottery but I just think he is going to end of a border line 1st round pick.

NBA teams may wish to select another available 7'1 center. Who that might be I have no idea.

Leonard?

Leonard has a better overall game, and I'm a big fan of his. I just don't think his frame will fill out enough for him to dominate in any part of the NBA game. I think Melo can be a dominant NBA center on the defensive end. Leonard is a good comparison. Both players made tremendous strides from last year to this year.

“@PeteThamelNYT: Texas's J’Covan Brown will officially leave and declare for the NBA Draft, according to the school.”

When will Malik Stith be declaring for the NBA draft?

Coach Casey won't let him

As history would have it, stith will land in a mid to low major conference in 2 years and avg 25 plus. Lol. But on another note this is a really strong draft.

Nah he will land in D2, next year and not have to sit out.
