SDSU's Leonard shooting up draft board

ESPN’s Ford is sold. He initially had Leonard in the middle of the first round, but that was before he went to Las Vegas.

In his ensuing draft analysis, Ford used phrases like "blown away" and "big-time prospect" and "it's hard to figure how he misses as a 10-year NBA player." On Tuesday, he called Leonard the draft’s "biggest sleeper" and in his post-lottery mock draft had Washington selecting him at No. 6.

Good for Leonard

But I think you also have to give some of the credit for Leonard moving up to the fact that a lot of players stayed in school.

I am a big time Jazz fan

And I am hoping that Leonard slips to us at #12. Unfortunately, I just don’t see it happening. But I can dream!

the jazz never wanted andre miller or keith van horn. they could have gotten those guys as free agents

plus with sloan gone i see the jazz being at the bottom of their division for a long time. they will pick a european player in the 1rst round. just watch.

Jon " Bones " Jones new UFC light heavyweight champion. Even if Jones got struck flush in the face he would recover and defeat whoever is in front of him. I told everyone the fight would be easy. Anderson Silva would never fight "Bones". He is too scared to fight the real P4P champion. Nick Diaz, the man who will prove to the MMA world that he is the best WW in the world.
