Ronnie Brewer!!!!!!!!!!

That guy is a beast.

[exodus]

Thanks mudder. Very interesting. Redick's speed seems to be on par with Roy, which i wouldn't have expected.

Morrison tested about the same as Webster last year.

[Diesel]

Unathletic?

Yeah, Ronnie Brewer certainly helped his draft status. Foye's results intrigued me more. I continue to foster an increasingly high opinion of him.

To be fair - his amazing Bench Press numbers have alot to do with his ranking.

I think his critics are mostly worried about how high he can stretch out his arms. (Note: I think that criticism is a little misguided.)

[Diesel]

I like what I see out of Jordan Farmar, Cedric Simmons, and Shawnee Williams...

Only 2 players beat Redick's time in the line agility test.In the full court sprint he was only .06 slower than Foye, .02 slower than Roy. So Redick is too slow for the NBA?

Morrison's line agility time was the same as Josh Smith. Granted Smith is a little slow to play the 3 but it looks like Morrisons lack of athleticism has been exaggerated. His full court sprint time was only .05 slower than Gay.

Both of their verticals are a little weak, but not nearly as bad as people expected.

Yup, I would love to get Foye. People talk about Shelden because he fits our needs. I say Foye fits our needs too. Shelden's weakness is his size, and there is no remedy to that. Foye's weakness is that he isn't a distributor, but I think that's fine if he's paired up with JJ

There isn't a PG in this draft that would fit our need. Unless our need is to lose.

[Lascar78]

with JJ being a relatively good distributor in the halfcourt, and needing the ball a good bit, our needs at PG are:

-defend PG's

-bring the ball up and not cough it up under pressure

-run the break with the young guns

-ability to penetrate

Seems to me that Foye fits the bill. How does he not?

His first name isn't Salim.

Just as predicted by yours truly, Shelden "Blockhead" Williams posted a TERRIBLE vertical. 29"? Did he have concrete shoes on? That, coupled with his lack of height/standing wingspan makes me even more worried about him as our pick.

We all knew the dude was strong - that wasn't what people were worried about. #5 is too high a place to pick this guy.

[jezmund]

Wasn't it like 34" with a step? That doesn't sound too bad to me for a 260 lb guy. O'Bryant couldn't even do that and he was slower.

[Admin]

Damn Diesel, what happened to your boy Shawnee with the big fat ZERO reps at 185? That is awful. Who the hell can't even do 1 rep at 185?

Brewer REALLY helped his stock with those numbers. Shelden Williams did very good as well, although his standing reach is going to kill him in the pros for any team that would dare consider him a 5.

O'Bryant and Marcus Williams both showed why they are considered to be very risky pros with bad work ethics. Marcus was the very worst of all the guards there. When you let skinny Jerry McNamara beat you in measurables thats pretty damn sad indeed.

I have to say that right now its Roy or Foye among the first tier guards and Brewer and Rondo as the others that can come in and help immediately. Outside of Aldridge and Thomas they are the only players I would consider drafting for the Hawks.

[AHF]

Any know why Rondo didn't participate in the combine or measurements? I would think he would want his numbers (other than bench press) out there.

[exodus]

Shelden's vertical was 33.25. This is the first year they have published the no step vertical. Nobody got over 35" on the no step vertical.

2.5 inches higher than Aldridge with 2.5 times the muscle to get in the air
