I'm with you on Greene, because he is slow. He can hit a corner 3 but won't ever do anything else or play defense. But Selden and Diallo look so much more athletic, to me anyway. If the argument that Selden's prospects are poor because he only occasionally showed off his amazing skills, I can't argue with that one. But I would think Diallo's ceiling would be pretty high.
The announcers kept talking about what a great prospect Svi is. I'm not claiming they are wrong, but his 3 point shooting was inconsistent. I never thought his dribbling against pressure defense or his drive to the basket looked all that great against college competition. I wish him the best, but am puzzled what NBA scouts see. If he goes this year, where do you suppose he will be drafted?
