Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted June 24, 2011 Ummm. Stretch tweener 3 and 4? Yeah, something like him, and Ryan is/was the better prospect. http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/draft2011/insider/columns/story?columnist=ford_chad&page=DraftGrades-110624 Harper has more athleticism. and for gods sakes people, being able to shoot threes doesn't immediately make you a tweener. Is Dirk a small forward now? How about Okur? Christ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about Okur? Christ. Actually pretty much everything I've read about this guy says he's a tweener.

Shine88 80 Report post Posted June 24, 2011 Nothing like him. Yeah, Harper is more athletic than Anderson, and can also put the ball on the floor, unlike Anderson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Read up on his intangibles and his game and tell me how he compares to Ryan other than playing the 4 and being able to hit the 3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Def 1 Report post Posted June 24, 2011 Did you know that turk played SG for Sacramento? Nothing personal, but do you have any idea what you are saying, because Turk is a true SF and comparing him to Anderson or Harper is pure ignorance. Saying Justin Harper can't play defense at the SF because he lacks lateral quickness makes as much sense saying that Turkoglu can play defense at the SF position. I didn't say Turk wasn't an SF. I'm just saying Turkoglu's defense is awful... GET IT? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted June 24, 2011 JC, perhaps that's true with this cat. I'm really hoping for the best. I'm more worried about his defensive abilities. I just know he's gonna have to guard people like Lebron, Smoove (unless we get him), KG, Bosh and Gasol, and it was tough to watch our current 4s get toyed with by those guys. EDIT: Bottom line for me, we need some big time trades in the next few days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jareth Cutestory 678 Report post Posted June 24, 2011 Orlando traded two future second-rounders to Cleveland for No. 32 pick Justin Harper, who fits the Magic system like a glove with his long-range shooting and general indifference to rebounding and contact. On another team that's a liability; as long as Dwight Howard is around it won't matter much in Orlando. Hollinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And, yeah, I love when someone pulls out the Dirk card Ok, you win, Dirk, kevin love, charlie villanueva, Jamison, anderson, matt bonner, brian cardinal, and troy murphy are all small forwards playing out of position because they hit threes.
