:lol He is undersized for PF and not quick enough for SF. Very good players don't typically go undrafted.

In college, he took games off. Consistency and work ethic have been his problem.

Bruce Bowen...

Hmm, well I guess he's not very good, but I mean you can find a decent player and work on him like Bruce.

Bookout was the better, more consistent inside player for OU. Taj reminds me of Wayman Tisdale (for some of you old schoolers). In the big games, he showed up...in others he played like a salted-slug.

Huh? Bowen is one of the best at moving his feet. Gray is too skinny, he's not tall enough, and has the work ethic of a sloth.

Well I'm just saying, Bruce went undrafted and you never know what could develop from and undraftee.

I live 30 minutes from OU and consistently make fun of their basketball team. They call him "Mr. Invisible". He dominated against players like Kevin Pittsnogle. But against a more true post player he just wasn't there.

A better undersized PF would be Brad Buckman. Not a whole lot of upside, but hes pretty NBA ready. But because of that lack of upside (and some old knee problems) he slipped out of the draft.

Buckman slipped out of the draft because he sucks.

Anyone who slipped out of this draft likely will fall off the face of the basketball earth. Hell, half of the second round will likely fall off said earth. That's how bad this draft was.

As for the Bowen comparisons, if this cat goes overseas for 5 or 6 years to work on his game, give him a call. Bruce never quit and basically WILLED himself into the league. Not a valid comparison at all.
