Bazz had no choice, too many questions about his athleticism, and character. When guys like that start to slide, its a big fall, they end up with better teams, but it cost them money and time to develop.
He needed a good showing, part of that good showing was competing when others weren't, and looking good from that angle, but also showing he's not the limited player he looked like this year.
Well that's ludicrousness because McNamara himself said there was almost a .1% chance they ever draft Burke!!Originally Posted by Eman5805

These drills probably won't help Muhammad much in that regard. The interviews are probably going to determine everything for him. Muhammad isn't a prospect who plays 1 on 1 ball nor should anyone expect him to blow anyone away in an isolation type of situation.

Backing someone down is a kind of isolation. But what you mean is still valid.
is there a website that has the official results from the testing today? did they do measurements or anything? what did they do today?
Gobert 7"3 with a 7"9 wing span!!!!!!!
holyyyy crap

mclemore 6"5 in shoes
oladipo 6"4.5 in shoes

Nice.Trey Burke 6"1 in shoes
That's a pretty big deal for Burke.
"I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

Same height in shoes as Chris Paul.

..Jonathan Givony @DraftExpress 2m
Rudy Gobert officially measured a 7-8 1/2 wingspan and a 9-7 standing reach. Both records. Gorgui Dieng had 2nd longest reach. #nbacombine
DX has a few combine interviews on their twitter as well.

nevermind gobert is 7"2.5 in shoes with a 7"9 wingspan, for comparison javale mcgee is 7"ft with a 7"6 wing span. Gobert dwarfs him.
thats insane, his length is unheard of.
That's what she said.

Gobert just shot up boards.
yup, guaranteed top 10
man if we could get the #1 pick and trade out of it and land something like gobert and bazz that would be something.
That extra inch by Burke is a big deal.
Who has two top 15 picks (projected) in the first?
Yeah, I'm not sure how that works either...
nobody ha 2 picks in the lottery, it would have to be a 3 team trade or we can make a trade with 2 seperate teams

Random thought about the measurements...
1. Shabazz Muhammad - Measured out well enough imo. 6'6 in shoes with a 6'11 wingspan. Good enough size for a SF.
2. Rudy Gobert - There's no doubt in my mind, he's going to be a top 10 pick. If he shows good fluidity and touch around the basket, Look out.
3. Cody Zeller - Measured out better than I expected. Legit 7fter in shoes. Unfortunately, we have confirmation on his T-Rex arms.
4. Steven Adams - Measured out very well. As expected. He's a much better prospect than his late first round grade people are giving him.
5. Otto Porter is as advertised. Long! He's measured out almost as well as Aminu. That's great for him.
6. Victor Oladipo - I was disappointed. I wish he was his listed height at 6-5. No more SF talk for him.
7. Nerlens Noel - measured out very well. 206lbs is pathetic though. I could see teams shying away from him due to his weight.
8. Ben McLemore - Measured out good. A heair under 6-5 in shoes. This basically puts him in Ray Allen territory in terms of height. I thought he was going to measure out shorter.
9. Trey Burke - this guy keeps answering critics... time and time again.
10. CJ McCollum - 6-3 in shoes? With a terrible wingspan at 6'6. Major disappointment.

I'd hardly call a 6'6" wingspan on a 6'2"ish (in truth, you are as tall as you are outside of shoes, so it makes Rudy Gobert, Durant, Otto Porter, AD's wingspans all the more freakish) terrible. It's just a lil' disappointing because you'd like a lil' more length for a 6'3" combo guard. It's what helps Gordon out immensely.
That's my take on it. If you're projected to be a SG in the NBA and you lack a couple of inches, you should at least have freakish length.
