So some are saying Graves leaving the Draft and others saying he is staying. These reports out there are useless. You might as well wait to actually see what the player does. We keep calling these guys kids but heck they are grown. Heck I had my first job at 10, my first above board at 14. I played sports and kept a job all through high school. These 20 plus year old people are no longer kids. Yes they will make many bad and good decisions. But we have to stop with that stuff. These people are millionaires. These people are making crazy money.
They have their cake and are eating it too. I am young and confused / oh pay me more / oh I like option a or b today b or a tomorrow. Horse crap.
We will get who we get. It will be guys that came to Kentucky. We will play with those guys on the floor. Can we win. Have to wait and see.Proverbs 25:24Comment

I wonder if maybe we are underestimating Potter? He might be able to give us 12-15 minutes as a stretch 5. Dude can shoot the ball. 40% career 3 point shooter. Gives us a totally different look offensively than Moreno.
He may struggle defensively, but on offense, he could be a floor spacer for us. Diallo and Wilkins are guys that can get to the rim. If you have a 5 that can pull the opposing 5 man away from the rim, that greatly helps drivers.
Put Diallo or Wilkins out there with Morton(40% last season from 3), Kam (39% career from 3), McBride (40% last year from 3), and Potter (40% career) and there’s no way teams can pack it in. Diallo/Wilkins should have a field day with their abilities to drive and their size. That lineup might not be able to stop anyone defensively, but it could be fun to watch on the offensive end.
And if we could somehow add Momcilovic (49% from 3 last season), then we would really have a dangerous shooting team.Comment
