Jrue Holiday is going to be really good though and Brandon Knight and him play nothing alike.

besides D-Will I also heard Marcus Morris say that he's a 3? These kids have to go through drug testing before draft night, right?

I think Jrue Holiday is mediocre and I think he will stay being pretty mediocre to decent starting PG, I can't see a world in which he ever makes an all star team though. Also I totally think they are very similar, both fake point guards, with good defensive tools, and solid jumper. Ultimately I don't think they are true point guards, and they will never be good enough scorers to make up for that.
I just think you take the guy with biggest ceiling in a weak draft for the most part, especially from the raps perspective and to me I'd much rather have any of those euros I just mentioned and if we miss I can live with tthe fact we missed on the next Jrue Holiday.

B knight can't help that this draft is weak, I take him top 10 in most drafts anyway. I think him and Williams are going to be scary good. I like Irving, but he went to duke.

Since Brandon Knight has only been playing the Point for a year...... will he be able to translate and run a team at the position in the NBA
all my UK friends HATED him at Kentucky

I couldn't disagree with you more on Jrue, kid is 20 years old and just played an exceptional playoff series against getting guarded mostly by the one of the best defenders in the league mostly. I don't see what he does that would make you label him a fake point guard cause I don't see that at all. He is big, fast, strong, defends exceptionally, good distributor and once he puts it all together I do see him being on all-star teams. He is stuck on a team that doesn't know if its terying to contend or rebuild and he is force to swtich beteween given roles on a nightly basis and does it seamlessly. Aside from Steph and possibly Ty, I like him as much as any of the PG's in the '09 class.
He is certainly 1,000x the player Ricky Rubio's bum %#@ is

Not to mention Jrue Holiday has to share his ball-handling duties with Iggy/Turner/Williams which take away from him because he's not really a slasher or spot-up shooter, he can do both but he is much better playing the sole PG spot.

82 games he was mediocre, he can't get to the line, he's inefficient and his turnover rate is quite high given how much he has the ball in his hands, I just don't like point guards that are poor decision makers and have limited court vision. Plus getting to the line, court vision, those things often are you either have it or you don't type propositions. I just hate those types of players fake point guards.
