Did Parker come to a decision today? Haven't been near a TV or espn.com today.
Do you think any of it has to do with final placement in draft order?  Like maybe he's waiting to see if the Lakers make the Top 5?

No. Too many people say he isn't your average player that would look for a money grab but that he truly sees value in returning to school another year. He needs to make the right decision for him and I think that decision is to stay in school, play with his friend Okafor and win a championship or go pro, regardless of where he would end up. He doesn't appear, at least in the descriptions I have read about him that he's the type of guy that would do what you are suggesting to try to maneuver himself to a specific team, though, I don't know the kid and anythings is possible

And boom goes the dynamite.  Now we can officially get a Tier 1 guy with any Top 4 pick (if you count Exum in there, which most people seem to do).

Also, did he really delay his decision so he could give SI an exclusive?  Guy's already working the media like a pro at least.

This is good news for us, and excellent news for all of us that have been obsessively concerned with whether or not he will maximize his career earnings.

High five to my fellow NCAA haters!!!

Think it's bad for Smart, look at how much money Mitch McGary's gonna wind up losing.  From likely lottery pick to likely 2nd rounder if he declares.  And if he doesn't, there's another year of earnings gone.  Could easily cost him $10 million+ when it's all said and done.

Poor Glenn.  He returned in part because Mitch returned, and they're best friends.  Mitch's injury forced Robinson to play out of position all year, which hurt his stock as well.

Dario Saric's agent is saying Saric will declare in the next week (so 6 days from now since this came out yesterday).  I hope either we draft him with our second pick or he goes ahead of us.  He should be a real talent in a couple years when he gets here, but if he pushes someone else back a pick instead that's fine too
