Again, not saying it'd be the right decision (although with about the 10th pick, it wouldn't be all that bad)
like Nowitness said, kids like him don't fall out of the lottery
Lakers fans, if I remember weren't happy with Bynum's selection, or him in his first year....I think they've changed their tune now, to say theleast

Believe me people will always try potential.
Darko was taken over Carmelo. That was on potential.

Beasley
Rose
Gordon
Lopez
and probably Bayless at this point....
I could see an NBA team taking Jordan at any time after that

3-15 and 3-13? Flynn and Green? I heard about shooters never seeing a shot they dont like but these guys gotta work on gettin some better shots, seems likenothing has dropped for them over the last month, besides Gtown. would be a crazy dangerous team if they shot just a bit better

Yeah, I don't think we're saying he's going to turn into a great player. (maybe he will)
That's up to him and the coaching/guidance he'll receive
but that potential could give him a spot in the lottery

Edwin Ubiles, 24 more tonight
Jared Jordan and my man Louie Flores couldn't make it, but Thompson and Ubiles - 2 future NBA players from the MAAC
and Ubiles is only a sophomore

Yeah, Q really seemed like a tank at DePaul... Didn't he average over 10 boards a game?Originally Posted by allen3xis

And Q was a better shooter than Harris is... But I definitely see where the comparison can be drawn. Seems like a pretty good one, IMO.

^ I think if Thabeet came back for one more year (highly unlikely)...and worked on his offensive game, he could possibly #1 overall...
when you look at next year's relatively weak freshman class, and if all the top guys leave this season.
Crazy to think he'd come that far, but I think it would be possible.
but he seemed to want to leave last year pretty bad to help his mom and family out
anyway if he keeps it up and has a nice tournament, he's a Top 10 pick this year.

Your right Allen, dude improves every time he steps on the court, may not show it, but something gets better each game, but his family situation is bad news sothere is about a 5% chance he stays

The most prestigious postseason all-star game is right around the corner, with theMcDonald's All-American Game slated to take place on March 26 in Milwaukee.
While the rosters will be out on Tuesday, here are our predictions for the 24 spots. When the names come out next week, we'll see how close we came byposting the actual rosters.
NOTE: Adam Zagoria, the New York/New Jersey high school hoops expert, has already reported that four players from those two states - Samardo Samuels, KembaWalker, Mike Rosario and Sylven Landesberg - have made the game. The selections are supposed to be kept quiet until Tuesday, but we'll trust Zagoria'ssources on this one. Samuels and Walker were no-brainers and Rosario was a near-lock anyway. The only mild surprise would be Landesberg, even though he'shad a great year against some great competition.
EAST
G - Tyreke Evans, American Christian (Aston, Pa.)
The best guard in the country, Evans has played through off-court distractions to earn this spot with ease.
G - Elliot Williams, St. George's (Collierville, Tenn.)
The Duke-bound Williams can fill it up against anyone and future Blue Devils always get love from the selection committee.
G - Kemba Walker
The lightning-quick Walker has proved his mettle against the nation's toughest competition, New York's CHSAA.
G - Sylven Landesberg
Like Walker a product of the CHSAA, the Virginia-bound scorer is a borderline pick, but certainly deserving.
G - Mike Rosario
The best player on one of the nation's best teams, Rosario is everything an All-American should be.
G/F - Scotty Hopson, University Heights (Hopkinsville, Ky.)
Smooth-shooting Hopson is one of the nation's best players and will be one of the game's few unsigned prospects.
F - Samardo Samuels, St. Benedict's Prep (Newark, N.J.)
The nation's top player, this bruising big man has put up great numbers against top competition. A no-brainer.
F - Al-Farouq Aminu, Norcross (Norcross, Ga.)
Had a signature performance against fellow top big man Greg Monroe, leading his Norcross squad to a nice win.
F - Ed Davis, Benedictine (Richmond, Va.)
Davis, an automatic double-double, will give the East squad another dominant power forward.
F - Henry Sims
Maybe a bit of a reach, but Sims has had a huge year, including a 30-point performance against Oak Hill.
F - Rashanti Harris
Another player whose stock has skyrocketed this year, Harris netted 28 points and 12 boards against fellow All-American Greg Monroe.
C - Ty Walker
Walker might not have the offensive numbers of his fellow All-Americans, but he can change a game with his dominant rebounding and shot blocking.
WEST
G - Jrue Holiday, Campbell Hall (North Hollywood, Calif.)
One of the smoothest players in the country, Holiday has put up big point totals all year.
G - Brandon Jennings, Oak Hill Academy (Mouth of Wilson, Va.)
The California native is easily the nation's most exciting player, combining no-look passes, killer crossovers and long-range 3-pointers.
G - Malcolm Lee, J.W. North (Riverside, Calif.)
A consummate point guard, there's no doubt Lee can score, but he will have no problem getting his teammates involved.
G - William Buford, Libbey (Toledo, Ohio)
The sweet-shooting Buford is nearly automatic from downtown and a threat to win the game's 3-point shootout.
G - Iman Shumpert, Oak Park-River Forest (Oak Park, Ill.)
Shumpert's all-around game has the Georgia Tech-bound guard ready to play on the nation's biggest stage.
G - Willie Warren, North Crowley (Fort Worth, Texas)
After a brief stint at Oak Hill, Warren came back home and has been more effective than ever, sharing the ball but still putting up big point totals.
G/F - DeMar DeRozan, Compton (Compton, Calif.)
The high-flying DeRozan has carried Compton to a great season and is a top 10 player nationally.
F - Greg Monroe, Helen Cox (Harvey, La.)
One of the country's most talented players, he's struggled a bit against elite bigs like Aminu and Samuels, but still one of the nation's best.
F - Luke Babbitt, Galena (Reno, Nev.)
The Nevada-bound Babbitt has proven to be the real deal with a monster senior year. Can score from the paint or beyond the 3-point arc.
F - Mike Dunigan, Farragut (Chicago, Ill.)
Dunigan has been a one-man wrecking crew for Farragut, scoring down low, rebounding and blocking shots against top Chicago competition.
C - BJ Mullens, Canal Winchester (Canal Winchester, Ohio)
Mullens netted 62 points in one game this year, and he's consistently proven to be the best pure center in the country.
C - Tyler Zeller, Washington (Washington, Ind.)
Zeller is an athletic big man who has improved greatly over the past year, earning him a coveted spot on this team.
Henry, Greg
EZ Pass
Elliot Williams..although a Dukie
Dunigan
official list comes tomorrow or wednesday

did work on Greg Monroe... You concerned Allen haha..
. I still don't know what to really think about him,yet.
From what I've seen, he appears to be passive at times and almost a little soft until someone really gets him mad....kinda like Jeff Green in a way.
But he fits the system perfectly, really looks like a great passer, can handle and should be a presence on the defensive end.
I'm hearin that Henry Sims might actually be as good or even better when its all said and done
We'll see though, they'll both see the floor a lot next year.

ya, i always look forward to watching the maac tournament. me being from buffalo, i get all the games. it be unreal if niagara made it back 2back. if you remember last year, i was the crazy one who ridiculously thought niagara could compete with kansas.the competitiveness lasted about a whole 2 minutes. still though, it'sexciting to see a local team in the big dance (i'ma bonnies fan).if niagara does miraculously go back 2 back it would be amazing, and at least i can be rest assured they wont be in the insulting play-in game again.
