Darius Miller, forward for Kentucky
Friday, May 11, 2012
The Grizzlies are a team that everyone (including Zach Lisman) thinks can make a deep run in the playoffs. They are the 4 seed in the West against the number 5 seed, Clippers. Although Memphis always plays good ball at the end of the season I personally believe that they will lose in the first round. They have some solid talent but they could use this year's draft to improve thier franchise and make a deep run in the future. They are 20th in the league in points per game with 95, 16th in rebounds per game with 42 and 24th in assits per game with 19.5. Since they have had a pretty solid season for themselves they will not have they best draft slots. If I were the Grizzlies general manager I would be looking for either a guard or a small forward that could take over Rudy Gay's slot, when his time is finished. Some prospects that they should look at are Will Barton from Memphis, Doron Lamb from Kentucky or Darius Miller from Kentucky. Although thier guards are not the best I still think they should take a small forward. With young Mike Conley at the point they should be set for a little while. The Grizz should go after Darius Miller. At a draft center like Kentucky, Miller did not get to play that much. But when he came off the bench, he made a big impact. This guy has got the size to play with the big boys, standing at 6-8 and weighing in at 225 pounds. I can not realy compare him with any of the star small forwards in the NBA because he is soo much different from all of them. With his ability he could be one of the steals in the draft and add to the Grizzlies young and talented team.
