    If we get the Craptors pick, should we draft him?

    IMO, he's somewhat of a poor man's Dunleavy, as he doesn't have the handling and passing skills of Mike D.

    However, he can shoot lights out.

    Nope

    he's too small to even get his shot off in the NBA

    6'6 and slow don't go over well at SF
    not unless you can overpower your man

    Casey Jacobson is a player who will probably go late in the first round. I don't think you would want to overdraft him.

    It is probably a wait and see with him depending on his workouts. At first glance, he would seem to have just as much skill coming out of college, if not more, than Sczerbiak or Mike Miller. Will his height be an issue? Could he play the 2 guard? I don't think he is the ROckets SF of the future or anything though.

    I think he'll be a great back-up two guard for somebody. Matching up with the other team's second string backcourt, he should be able to provide instant offense. Flashbacks to St. Joe's Marvin O' Connor making Casey Jakes his b!tch in last year's tourney make me doubt his ability to defend in the NBA. I think number 14 is a bit high for a backup 2 guard, though.
