Where will Shabazz Napier be drafted?

[LT Profits]

Not sure when Napier will be drafted but he now has more post-season wins at AT&T Stadium than the Cowboys do.

People need to realize there is a difference between a good college player and pro. He will be lucky to be drafted in the first round. That being said it takes nothing away from the fact that he's having a nice tourney.

i find this post hilarious. " He will be lucky to be drafted in the first round" LMFAO. LIke there is a boat load of talent in CBB.

[Thor4140]

His court presence, basketball IQ, etc. etc. is the highest I have seen in a college player in as far as I can remember.

His age, 23, is not a factor. I am positive he can have a serious impact on a team. If he is to slip to a team in the 20-30 range He could potentially start for the Heat next year.

He has been FLAWLESS against high level competition

i think his age 23 is a big factor and a positive one at that. 4 years of college honing his skills makes me think of the time Paul Pierce and his three years of college got passed over by that phony fuk Larry Brown as he took Larry Hughes instead. One of the worst draft mistakes in Philly history. I will take the kid who has been in the league for three years before the one and done guy.

What does he do thats special any decent pg can play for Cuse their sets are elementary. I like him, his poise and steadiness, but he doesnt really wow in a particular category, he's certainly not better than Napier.

micheal carter williams didn't really show he could do what he is doing now in the NBA. I dont think your logic is even close to valid

Which is what?

Miss a lot of shots, turn the ball over, lose a lot of games.

[jjgold]

Carter Williams was why Syracuse had that deep run in tourney

Napier sticks out all the time unlike any other college player this year

[Bostongambler]

Late first round.

[Bostongambler]

Carter Williams went to Hamilton High School which is not far from Charlestown high school where Shabazz went . Just a little side note. Hola!

[paco]

Close this out Shabazzzzzzzzzz

[TwoWays]

mcw is part of a team with like, a lot of loses. he hasn't proven anything so far.

[paco]

Close this out Shabazzzzzzzzzz

Covered every game in tourney including some juicy ml's

[HustleGetPaid]

He'll get a shot, late 1st rounder or early 2nd. Undersized PG especially when the NBA PGs are 6'3 plus in size these days...

[jjgold]

Guy is a killer which many players do not gave anymore, very intense and a leader which will help him in the nba, he will not be a star but I think an effective nba point guard.

right on point, he is still looking better than going pro last year where he was a late 2nd round or 3rd maybe but he will probably get picked end of second round

The best pg in the nba by a mile is 5'10.

[Goat Milk]

nba pgs are not 6'3 on average. they are 6 feet tall on average....

Carter williams is nothing compared to Napier. Where he is drafted doesn't even matter. Scouts make bad decisions in every draft.

exactly Goat scouts do make bad choices all the time. If Napier goes any higher than mid second round, a scout has made a mistake

Who the fuk names a kid shabazz

College guys do not comment on these issues.

I am an NBA man so I know who fits and who does not.

Napier fits right into the NBA.

If you're a PG in college basketball and you can't weave through and split pick and rolls and you can't weave through the paint and dance around and keep your dribble then you won't be a starting pg in the nba. If you can do all those things you will be just fine at the next level.

How many pgs in college can do that? I watch that guy on florida. He can't do any of that stuff.

[raydog]

he will go after smart and ennis ... they are 2 best guards in the draft.. goat, the kid makes waaay too many hamburger turnovers and, although you dont think so(and you are wrong, as usual), his size is an issue and he doesnt really have nba 3pt range

Size isn't an issue if you are lightning quick and/or an elite athlete.

Napier is neither.

With that being said, I do think he'll be a serviceable pro.

[jbart28]

Where does russ smith go? Before or after Napier? That is the question

ray you know nothing about nba. we already proved that when we were in sbr chat together back in the 2010 days and we were all on that conference call where you all except me took chicago to beat miami in the ecf. silence. go back to ripping off 80 year olds and take their bingo winnings.

27th

24th but the Heat moved up two spots from 26th to grab him.
