oh. weird. that doesn't seem to make any sense. 

That's why I say it must be for the fact he left the scene.  Had he stayed it would have most likely resulted in a fine for just street racing. It's a stretch to say that his involvement resulted in the death of someone else unless they can prove he caused the wreck. The simple fact they were racing is trying to connect one to the other. A good layer will get this reduced.  I'm not minimizing the other person's death in all this. But street racing is extremely dangerous and there's a reason it's illegal. But the sad fact is theres folks who die form excessive speed and racing everyday.  Now will they try to make an example out of him? They might.

That's an odd thing to say a this point. Teams wouldn't have grades on these guys yet. They haven't finished the combine. They haven't had visits. They have pretty much just started their draft evaluations based on the explanations of how the timetables work for the draft.

 

Now maybe the key point is that they are saying scouts grades and not final team grades or draft boards.

Teams have perpetual grades on prospects as well as a preliminary draft board throughout the season.   Of course that is always evolving with the season and scouting reports and the combine but they dont go into March/April blind

Fitterer said yesterday that they look at prospects in next years class as well. Said they are always looking to the future. They are always scouting for talent and not just the current class.

I would say they already have mountains of data on these kids. The combine is mostly for interviews and to confirm what they've already learned about them. I think they know who they would go all in on and who they could develop over time to be a stud.

Yep the combine is more or less the place they can talk to prospects with unlimited access.  They only have an allotted number they can actually bring in.   I think the number is 20 or so.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
