NBADraft.net has Brackins and WJ becoming teamates again

**hursts** · 01-12-2010, 12:14 PM

NBADraft.net projects Wesley Johnson as the second pick in the NBA draft going to Minnesota and Brackins the 16th pick also going to the T-Wolves. Probably not much chance of this actually happening but it would be interesting if they somehow ended up on the same NBA roster.

No way Brackins goes before Johnson. My bad, thought it said second round for Johnson.

You mean they aren't going to draft 4 guards this year??? It's funny how Wesley Johnson wasn't even in the top 100 of his class two years ago on NBA Draft.net and now he is the top dog...

I would completely give up on the Wolves if this actually happened. I can't handle another terrible draft here in Minneapolis...

how would that be a terrible draft??
if they are smart they will get a good guard in free agency and this would not be a bad draft for them

WJ is over-hyped?

lol

**cmoore_23** · 01-12-2010, 12:41 PM

yaaa.. i wouldnt say WJ is over hyped.. he's pretty much a beast..

**The_Architect** · 01-12-2010, 12:45 PM

[QUOTE=isunorth;1473034]Because WJ is the most over-hyped player in college basketball QUOTE]

Umm, no.

I feel Wes is over-hyped.

Very talented, putting up big numbers, athletic, with a good jumper.

But he's too perfect of a fit in that system NOT to put up the numbers. Syracuse is making him look like much more of a stud than he is, IMO. What position will he play in the NBA? His lateral quickness is still sub-par...I'll probably get blasted for this but I just don't see how the hell he could be a top 5 draft pick. But then again, I'm not scout...

Funny how a change in jersey changes perspectives.

doesn't have anything to do with being bitter about him leaving. He's too slow to play on the wing in the NBA and would get killed in the lane. He's 195 lbs which makes him smaller than most NBA shooting guards. What position is he going to play?

This right here. WJ has always had a problem playing physical, and the NBA is a street fight.

He will get eaten alive until he either beefs up or gets quicker. You think WJ could even score against Kobe or Artest?

Couldn't score on or stop either in the post or on the perimiter. He's soft and so is Brackins. Neither is tough enough to succeed in the league.
