The official LOL Harry Giles thread

Coach K cleaning house. Now he can bring in 3 or 4 more 5 star PF/Cs and hope that at least one doesn't need any sort of developing, so he can play right away.

Who is left for spring signing? Seems like most of the five stars and high fours already signed in February.

Or is K coming for Sarr?
 
Here's a good prop bet.

Will Harry Giles score more than 102 points in his first NBA season?
 
Listen here, H8ers, how many future assistant coaches of the Northtown Forysth Jackalopes (freshmen squad) can say they declared for THE ASSOCIATION?

Not many, I'll have you know.
 
I'll take the under. Not many Dukies improve relative to their peers after they leave Durham.
 
lol, NBA 1st round pick? i mean he only had 3 ppg more than I had this season...crazy!

The #1 recruit signed with dook...and averaged about a basket and a half more per game than cadavers who signed with dook medical school.
 
Dear Chad Ford of ESPN

Most experts have Harry Giles dropping outside of the top 15 picks in this year's draft. Several are now questioning if he will stick in the first round.

Yet you steadfastly list Giles as a lottery pick at #13 on your board. And that garbage keeps running across the bottom of my TV screen while I am attempting to watch my boy, Lammers, who is a better prospect than Giles.

Giles has 2 bad knees and he cannot shoot.

Please help me understand your logic and/or credentials to be an "expert" for the 24/7 Duke Hype Machine in Bristol, CT.

Thank you,

Worst one-and-done ever. Congrats, Big Ticket. A title you'll hold forever.
 
I can hear Giles money hungry Dad saying "don't matter, got paid"

He certainly may! ESPN mock draft 3.3 Harry Giles going # 11

11. Miami Heat

Giles remains the trickiest prospect in the draft to evaluate. He's playing anywhere from seven to 18 minutes a game. When he plays 14 minutes or more, good things seem to happen in flashes. But overall, he still doesn't look like the Giles we saw in high school. It will be hard for teams to draft him over some of the less talented but less risky players above him.

I don't think the Heat (or Wolves, for that matter) should pass on him, though. His upside is as high as anyone's in the draft. He's shaking off a lot of rust right now, but when he gets fully healthy, he has superstar potential.

If the Heat can grab him here, they'll be thrilled. His work ethic and toughness fit Miami's culture perfectly. In a year or two, this pick could be the steal of the draft.
 
Autocorrect is hilarious, changed "stinker of the draft" to "steal of the draft".
