Perry Jones is about to make a lot of people look stupid. Sullinger too probably.

**King Sancho Fantastic** · 07-09-2012, 04:38 PM

Ugh...wish the Lakers could have found a way to snag Jones. SMH.

**Wade County** · 07-09-2012, 04:39 PM

I'm still annoyed the Heat traded their pick. He was right there!

**R-Star** · 07-09-2012, 04:40 PM

Brooklyns future is looking bright. That Morrison kid is going to be pretty dang good.

Could be worse. Could have passed on him for PlumTree.

**Wade County** · 07-09-2012, 04:43 PM

Plumlee had Indiana Pacer written all over him.

Yep. If they ever run out of white guys late in a draft, I'm declaring.

When asked about my strong suits I'll say "Hustle!" and when they say "what?" I'll reply with "Hard nosed!"

Who wouldn't want to play as R-Star in NBA2K14?

As long as Sullinger stays healthy he will, no doubt. But Jones isn't as good as everyone thinks; he couldn't crack 14/7 in either year at Baylor in 30+ minutes per game. He'll show flashes, but be wildly inconsistent and frustrating for fans and coaches. Maybe he'll dominate the summer league though; Tskitishvili did one year too.

Got the tools to be a really nice player, his fluidity with that height is extremely rare, but most players of that type usually either have knee problems or they just have trouble finding consistency. He could be the next Tracy Mcgrady or he could be the next Anthony Randolph/Jonathan Bender. I have a feeling he's going to be more like Anthony Randolph/Jonathan Bender then Tracy Mcgrady/Kevin Durant.

If he can pull that off somewhat in the NBA I'll be happy.

**Wade County** · 07-11-2012, 04:23 PM

Plumlee actually MIGHT be better than i've given him credit for. He should be able to carve out a niche as a banger, and he's the kinda guy who could have a Jeff Foster like career. Pacers lose one Foster, add another.
