DJ to enter the draft

He won’t be hiring an agent, though. Again, this makes financial sense for the young man, but he has to be concerned with this year’s guard crop. The following lead guards are all likely to be taken in front of him: Rose, Mayo, Bayless, Eric Gordon, Collison, and Westbrook. If DJ performs poorly in workouts and/or the other lead or combo guards kill it in workouts, I could see guys like CDR, Jamont Jordan, Kyle Weaver, and Mario Chalmers jump DJ based on size and athleticism. There’s no doubt DJ can come in and run an NBA team, but his lack of size is a huge risk factor. Another year at Texas would help his draft slot based on supply and demand alone.

    I think DJ has the skills to make up for his size, but I don’t think he’ll ever be any better than, say, TJ is right now.

    Still, I wouldn’t bother with school if my first paycheck was going to have a 7th zero on it.

    But has Augustin ever hit a game-tying 3 pointer to send the championship game to overtime?

    I totally deserve to go higher. Game, set, and match.

    Would DJ be the highest drafted PG never to have attempted a post entry pass?

    I dont know the best place to say this, and it is probably total spam, but can someone write an article about Barkley Shut up and Jam: Gaiden?

    I would love to do that. Need to play it first but that just made the docket.
