    actually brandon developed a sweet short jumper that he hit consistently this past year. his ball-handling skills are questionable at best for the NBA regarding his position.

    dont laugh. he probably has more upside as a TE. he'd get a bigger signing bonus too after how gonzales and gates have panned out.

    maybe bass is fooling us all and this is his backup plan

    the above linked website also had this to say about bass

    "No matter how much he improves his skills, his height will always limit his game to that of a role player."

    the kid is a great player. I dont feel like he coulda improved his stock playing in college. he already dominated the sec, I mean... the only way to get better is to play amongst stronger competition like the nbdl. I dont understand what this guy should do? I know he's a tweener and always will be. besides.. what's wrong with being an nba roll player? brent barry, robert horry, lindsey hunter, antonio mcdyess....the list goes on... those are just 4 guys from the finals that are making a PRETTY GOOD LIVING doing what they love.

    he just gave away a free college degree for a CHANCE to be a role player. 3 of the 4 you listed were drafted pretty high btw.

    agree. i think he will be a semi-star in the nba eventually. great strength, great work ethic, smart and a good midrange shooter.
