Message: [QUOTE="General20, post: 3008008, member: 724"] The accepted truth seems to be that Battle was going to be a second round pick last year, but decided to come back to college and slipped to not being drafted. I don't actually think this is true. Battle doesn't have range out to the NBA 3 point line (or really even the college line). I don't think he was getting drafted last year, this year, or next year, in any round, without that skill. 10 years ago, maybe even 5, Battle is a first round pick after his sophomore year. But the game has changed quickly and his skill set does not match what the NBA is looking for. [/QUOTE]
