Where is Sam Young projected to go? I haven't really kept up close with the draft this year.

Also, just wondering what you thought about James Harden? Last I heard he was gonna go somewhere in the 7-10 range. I've always enjoyed watching him though.

Young is projected to go somewhere in the 20s.

In a bad draft, Harden is easily one of the ten best players.

Patrick Mills will be the steal of the draft. He can really play.
He will be 2 times the player Stephen Curry will be.

I haven't been able to figure out why Terrance Williams is going so low. Especially as athletic as he is.

I agree, I like him too, but athleticism isn't everything.

there were rumors that GMs are worried about his attitude because he calls the spirit of is dead relatives before games.

Quote:
"The last line of Williams' pregame monologue is a request for all his dead relatives -- his father, Edgar; his grandparents Mary Jackson and Bobby Perkins; and two cousins -- to 'watch over me as I have fun.' Their names are tattooed on his left arm and concealed by a compression sleeve that he says he wears to keep connected to them, spiritually. Williams may well be the only player to wear a sleeve solely for that reason, but he has always been sartorially idiosyncratic. He often wears custom-made photo T-shirts as tributes to teammates and coaches (his Pitino shirt has a shot of his coach playing point guard at UMass in the early '70s), and he sometimes shows up for practice wearing two different-colored shoes. At Seattle's Rainier Beach High he would wear socks emblazoned with childhood icons (from Barney to Big Bird to SpongeBob) during games and carry his books in a Barbie backpack, just to be different."
