Moderators AHF Posted June 4, 2007 Author Moderators Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 After a day or so of voting, I will post the numbers from last week. I just don't want to influence anything in the early going. Just before the draft, I will post a composite of how the board's view on the pick has changed over time (assuming that the Hawks don't trade the draft before draft day).

coachx Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Since Hoford is a legit 6'10'' he is legit center prospect. That caused me to back off Conley in favor of Hoford. Some elite workouts by Conley could change my #3 pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Diesel Posted June 4, 2007 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 You know what you can have is a graph of each player week by week with HS determination. The truth is that some player who I refuse to call by name is only getting votes because of stubbornness of HSers to admit that they were wrong.

exodus Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 The workouts and the combine certainly will influence the voting. The fact that Horford measured taller than expected definitely helps his cause, while Conley's shooting struggles in workouts hurts him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oiatlhawksfan Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 Ya'll seem to be jumping the gun way to early, wait to all the measurement are released, what if Yi is at 7'1, or Noah is a legit 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One inch doesn't make Horford a center, and we already knew Conley had a streaky jumper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a longterm "gun jumper" and "fence sitter", I resemble that remark! For AHF: You can count on my expert opinion changing weekly depending on what I read about who last!

One inch doesn't make Horford a center, and we already knew Conley had a streaky jumper. The fact that Horford is the same height as Okafor is certainly a big issue with me. And the fact that he isn't a center isn't that relevant since there aren't any centers in serious consideration at 3. We knew that Conley wasn't a great shooter in games but struggling in a workout with nobody trying to block your shot, when you have had plenty of time to work on it, is certainly cause for concern.

Horford also is 1/2" taller than Solomon without shoes although skinny Solomon must have higher standing reach because they have similar wingspan.

Some version of that will be done although I am not very graphic savvy so I may need help getting an actual line graph going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrReality Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 I think Conley's sex appeal is wearing thin. The hype machine carried him up to this point. Now it's gonna have to be his workouts. Voted for Horford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troubleman Posted June 4, 2007 Report Share Posted June 4, 2007 I like Horford, especially after he measured 6'10". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now it's gonna have to be his workouts. Voted for Horford. I am still in the Conley camp as I believe a pass first point guard is invaluable. Horford, assuming he is as big as the rumors indicate, is the only other option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
