good read on how Green looked yesterday:
Green Excels In First Day Of 2013 NBA Draft Combine - Gobbler Country

sounds like Green had to sit out today after bruising his knee
Erick Green Injured At Second Day Of NBA Draft Combine - Gobbler Country

I wouldn't look much into his combine workout. The NBA combine is even more useless than the NFL's. Really the only thing that you can put any kind of value in is the measurables since college teams lie all the freaking time about a player's height/weight/wingspan, etc. You can't really do anything to improve your stock unless you're a foreign player that teams haven't seen in person. On the flipside, you have to do something really fucking poorly to hurt yourself. Green's chances to impress will be where we can't see, the interviews with the teams there. I like seeing that some are saying he could go late 1st. That strokes my ego a little bit after researching other 4 year PGs to see how Green may pan out and I pegged him as late 1st round worthy (I still think he more than likely goes early 2nd).


BTW, I loved Fran's line "He's a basketball player!". LOL. Wonderful analysis there.

Let's hope the scouts don't see this video, it could hurt his draft stock LOL

Joking aside, it would probably help his stock. Shows character imo.

Guess he'll just go to Kansas, Memphis or an SEC school like all the rest.

Clark didn't have a snowball's chance in hell of getting in from Day 1.

I'm pretty immune to this type of thing by now.

Not like he was going to get good coaching and develop anyway.

Lol at VT for having Brad Stevens on their list of candidates to replace Greenberg a year ago.

Erick Green on tonight at 10pm on NBA TV
Summer League Nuggets vs Bucks: Time to see the growth of the young guys - Denver Stiffs

Donte Clark enrolled at UMass.

Anyone want to take bets that UMass makes the tournament?

Erick Green puts Denver's first points of the game on the board with a mid range J.

 

[Ragingcroc]

So basically they've had Green bring the ball up, park at the 3 pt line and nothing else.

Stat line read 2-12, 4 pts, 1 assist, 1 reb, 1 TO in 22 mins. Yeesh. I don't get NBA TV. Was he really that bad? Rough start. He'll need to do better if he wants to make the roster. Hopefully its just rust or something

I lost interest after they subbed him out in the first quarter. He didn't' really get the ball much when I was watching.
