WatchedcKentucky last night. Fox very interesting.
The refs made that a tough game to watch.  Fox is my favorite prospect to watch but he's got to improve his shooting.  Fultz and Ball will go ahead of him but I'd definitely take Fox over Smith.

The guy is so tough. Never afraid to absorb contact. I don't care if he can't shoot. He have the winning mentality and toughness of Smart.

edit: He's playing Smart's team. LOL
Jackson is definitely though but I don't think he is anywhere close to smart.

Yup....Smart is a special type personality ,  like kG ,  insane competitor.


 That's why drafting Jackson would be sweet. Operation Wolfpack.

Thanks Tazz, TP. There is a lot of prospects playing today, I think I'll watch the fultz game since I haven't been paying much attention to him
Warning: I am a Marucs Smart homer

I'm not giving up on my guys Harry Giles. I still have faith that he will be a top 3 pick come draft time. I'm hoping for a 20 point game for him today

Watching Kansas/Texas, and the most impressive guy on the floor has been Jarret Allen.  Lean, agile 7 footer, he's got 19/16 with 3 blocks with 10 minutes still to go.  6 turnovers though.  Obviously a work in progress, but he's shown a good mid range game and the ability to put it on the floor against close outs.

I'll have to try to catch the game in replay.  Jarrett Allen started the season as a late lottery projection in the DraftExpress 2017 mock but he played so poorly that they pushed him back to their 2018 mock.

Agree. He was a non-factor in so many games that we stopped including him in the prospects to be watched. He was , I think 13-14 on nbadraft.net.early in the season.... then his play made him deservedly disappear.

Not impressed with Tatum's defense or ball awareness.

If this continues there will be real separation between the top 4 and the rest of these guys.

Duke actually looked like a good basketball team in the 2nd half rather than just a bunch of talented players.  Coach Capel putting Allen, Kennard and Giles to the bench was a great move.  Makes no sense for them to start their 3 worst defensive players.  Giles and at least one of Allen or Kennard need to come off the bench from now on. 

Tatum looked much better in the 2nd half.  He made some aggressive drives to the basket.  Bolden played by far his best game both offensively and defensively. Finally showed why he was projected as a late lottery pick.  Giles continues to look bad.  Plays lousy defense and fouls a lot while doing it. 

Isaac continues to look better and better.  I would not be surprised if he ends up being the top non-guard in the draft. 

Fox is definitely the key cog for Kentucky.  Their offense collapsed when he went out with a twisted ankle in the 1st half.  Monk showed some aggressiveness driving to the basket a bit rather than just settling for jumpers.  Hopefully he keeps it up when Fox gets back. 

Only caught the 2nd half of the game but Patton was in foul trouble again.  2nd game in a row where I've seen him pickup a stupid 4th foul.  He did make a rather acrobatic, for a 7' center, catch and layup on the fast break.  He moves well defensively but he's not an imposing defensive presence.   

Robert Williams probably had his best game (18pts, 12rebs) so far.  I'd really like to have a late lottery pick to take him.  He's a raw prospect but further along than I initially thought.  Excellent defense, good rebounding and a surprising post game. 

Getting old.  Fell asleep during the UCLA/Arizona game and missed the last 10 minutes.  Ball and Markkanen both looked good up to that point.  Not sure how Ball's shot works but he gets it off quick and it goes in so that's all that matters.  Ball showed he could drive the lane successfully a few times.   Markannen's shot looks great and it goes in like you expect it to.  He's more Dirk than Porzingis.
