Wolfson's lost all credibility with me as of late. Couldn't care what him or Zgoda have to say anymore.

I'm curious how he's lost credibility for you.

I would be interested what turned Cam off as well although I am not surprised he would feel that way. Wolfson is a worthwhile follow but you have to take what he says with a grain of salt. Every once in a while he can be a jerk too but I am sure those guys get a lot of crap from idiots. Today was kinda funny someone commented on his retweet about Salty getting DFAed by the Marlins and said Suzuki has been solid for the Twins. Wolfson responded and said Solid is overstating it Suzuki has been ok. I guess his bat for solid is kinda high. Lol If nothing else it's good to have a guy like Suzuki that puts the ball in play when you have an offense full of strikeout dudes.

FROM FORD

Porzingis is the wild card in this draft. International scouts swear by him. GMs still are trying to figure out exactly what he is at the next level. Is he the next Dirk Nowitzki or the next Jan Vesely? Based on the conversations I've had with numerous scouts with great track records in Europe, he's closer to Nowitzki than Vesely or -- my favorite analogy -- a more athletic Nikola Mirotic. He could go as high as No. 3 or as low as No. 8.

I think Wolfson said that because Chad Ford said in his chat, that if the Wolves fall to #3 or #4 and Towns/Okafor are gone, that he thinks they'll lean towards either Russell or Porzingis, who Ford said he thinks is closer to Dirk than Vesely.

I think it's curious that Wolfson seems so convinced that the Wolves have Okafor as their top guy. Towns seems more of the type of player Flip has targeted because he is 2-way player.

I think its about matching with Rubio. Okafor and Rubio would be such an efficient combo and would free up a ton of space for Wiggins on offense. Those 3 together would be pretty amazing. Towns fits the two way, but Okafor is guaranteed efficiency on the offensive end.

You act like Towns didn't just post a TS% of .627 in college...

(Okafor's TS% was .635; not saying Okafor won't be more dominant offensively in the beginning, but if we're talking efficiency... you absolutely must take free throws into account)
