    whew, gotta love the Manute Bol reference. dude was 7'6", i don't think you need much arc at that height, eh?

    agree, that GT will likely be a pick-up after the draft and then make a team as a role player. sure hope he makes it. great young man from a great family. there have been many role players that eventually cash in - would love to see that for GT. if teams really feel he is the best they are seeing during workouts for the lower round players though, why not take a chance with a 2nd pick?

    Sure there is a great need for lock down defenders. But those guys, at least Bell and Bowen are established 3-point shooters that can hit it when left open. I just don't think Garrett can score consistently enough to get playing time on a team. His defense and athleticism are definitely NBA worthy. Let's hope he has a great summer to work on that shot and impress some scouts. If guys like Dahntay Jones and Courtney Lee can make it, then Garrett has a good chance.
