Saw Cook listed in the 40s in a recent mock draft. I’m assuming he’d go if that’s accurate.

tensile strength? wat

The NBA should really look into incorporating more Armstrong maneuvers into their evaluation process. That way athletes similar to Durant can really display their natural tensile strength....

NBAdraft.net is notoriously terrible if you follow the NBA Draft very closely. They once compared DeShawn Stevenson to Michael Jordan

e: it has Nassir Little and fucking Bruno Fernando going before Jarrett Culver, good god

 

[KitKatApples]

Well they are both basketball players

He's pretty much off the radar now but Horton-Tucker is generally projected as a first rounder, and I've seen a lot of people grade him as a lottery pick. I don't totally get why, I feel like you need to have a lot of faith that his jumper and defense are going to improve pretty dramatically

 

[Hawkstrat]

Any proof to the rumor I just started that Wiggington blames Prohm for his sharp drop?

 

[KitKatApples]

No way

Yeah, ESPN's guys (formerly Draft Express) don't have Cook in the top 100.

Yes, I realize that. I was just providing the link for @Hawkeye_Pierce's statement

I think it was like the first website ever that did a mock draft and has been around forever (and they haven't updated their site design since 2003) so "Average Joe" fan still use it as a go-to. It is something my dad would e-mail me since it came up second in an Ask Jeeves search.

Yeah they're good at SEO, and for a long time it and Draft Express were pretty much the only independent NBA draft sites out there.

I really miss DraftExpress as it's own thing, their site was so much nicer and easier to find stuff on than the mess that is modern ESPN.com.

Agreed.

The ESPN version of DraftExpress is as bad as it gets.

RIP

Ahhhh.... shit. I heard he was sick for a while. His parents lived next door to my parents for years. He actually bought the house my uncle built.

Mousecatine basketball legend.

I have definitely met that guy

 

[tallperson54]

I played against that dude in a tournament in Mousecatine in 2009 or 2010 with a bunch of other 22-25 year olds. He was very good still at 40.

 

[Pinehawk]

Very sad. Didn’t realize he was related to some of the listed family. Very nice people.
