Scouts thoughts on Brackins

I think that actually might be a mistake. I view Craig as a niche player in the NBA. A guy who can run the floor, and draw a big out from the post to help balance the floor. I don't see him as a banger.
This, I think Craig could excel for a team like Atlanta or Phoenix. We never got to see what Craig could do on a team that gets up and down the floor.
Really, other than a stretch during the middle of the season last year where it seemed like he couldn't miss anything, it didn't seem to me like Brackins really had a great long range shot. Maybe I just had too high of expectations and remembered the misses more than the makes.
If he's going to make it in the NBA, he's going to need that outside shot, because I just can't see him being able to handle the inside game. For his sake, I hope its just that McD didn't use him properly, because he didn't look like NBA material to me this year.
Or Golden State..I think that would be a great fit. I can see him as an Anothony Randolph with a little less ball skill, and a better jump shot.
I'll take the under on that one. Stick an elbow in his back and he runs to the three point line like a little girl.
My goodness we are quick to throw one of the best players ever at ISU under the bus.
I agree. If I were building a team, I'd take guys like Damien Staple, Jackson Vroman, Jared Homan and Jiri Hubalek ahead of Brackins. They knew their strengths and gave it all they had on both ends of the floor. I think our team will actually perform better without Brackins next year. They can't do any worse!
The scout's take on CB is completely correct when he stated CB had no help from our guards. So if there is anyone who thinks DG is a good point guard this should give you reason to reconsider.
Yeah, losing NBA talent typically makes teams better.
Apparently the lessons of Mike Taylor and Wes Johnson are soon forgotten.
first of all stlouisclone never said we were losing nba talent
we are losing dleague or euro league talent
and it's not like we were better or worse with mt or wj. we've been very medicore to bad the entire mcd timeline regardless of the players.
