I'd love this guy...he is a great fit with Big Al.....while teams guard the post with Al, this guy

can pick and pop even from 3 point range.  Would make us very hard to defend, and the perfect

guy for Kemba to dish to.. 

 

 

Adreian Payne

 

Ht: 6-10

Wt: 240
 
An explosive big with shooting range to the college 3-point line ... Shot a very impressive 42.3% on 3.4 3-point attempts per game as a college senior ... Payne should be a quality "pick and pop" option in the NBA because of his toughness and shooting stroke ... Very good free throw shooter (about 80% in his final two seasons at MSU) ... He comes off as being a bit stiff in his movements, but is as explosive off 2 feet as they come ... A banger on the block. Has decent post moves and a good stroke ... Improving feel around the basket and in the post, especially when it comes to making a counter move and passing out of double teams ... Known to be an "intangibles" guy who is a good leader and hard worker ... Physical. Has toughness you'd expect from an Izzo coached player ... Wiry strong -- entered MSU with a slender frame but has filled out well ... Appears to be the type of player that is even stronger than he looks ... Really showed off his athleticism in the college dunk contest, where many agree he had the most impressive dunk of the event, doing a 360 while bringing the ball down to his feet mid-air before throwing it down with authority.

I don't think he'll be there.

 

 

Yeah I can see him going in the top 20 now.

Yeah Chad Ford's latest mock (espn.com) has him going 13th to the Timberwolves.  I think that's a reach, but still...gotta co-sign on him being gone before 24.

      Thielen traded

      By electro's horse · Posted

      i wouldn't say that yet. I also wouldn't say he's done anything that makes me think he's particularly good. i think that's about right for compensation both ways for thielen considering the state of the vikings and Panthers.  The weirdest thing is that technically the panthers should be adding veteran salary cap right now; they have a high cost first overall qb on a rookie contract; that's the best advantage in the NFL in this day and age. It hasn't worked out because, well, the qb they drafted isn't good and they've ignored other parts of the team to try to bolster him.  so what's morgan really supposed to do? Are they tanking with a rookie qb in year three that the owner probably personally wanted drafted? Are they actually trying to win games this year with 80 career catches between their top three receivers? The defense is probably going to be terrible. What kind of jump are people actually expecting from Coker, Bryce, XL, and performance from a rookie to overcome that? It's not realistic.  At the end of the day I don't think Thielen wanted to end his career here and I don't blame him. Minnesota is going to compete this year and Carolina isn't. I also think this is to toss Bryce to the wolves and be done with him one way or another. There's no way this works. This is not a move you make if you're trying to win football games.

      If he helps them win a super bowl the individual award is irrelevant.

      Love the way Duke came out and dominated Elon in the second half. Did not love the way they played at all in the first half. Got a lot of missed tackles on film for this week and the next game's not gonna be easy at all.
