Following potential 2012 draftees
- Thread starter Dr. Jones
- Start date
He has the speed, the handles, the overall athleticism, and the STRENGTH .. not to mention he's not a bad shot.
Marshall, on the other hand, is a truly gifted passer .. now we just have to see if he can make the pass as well when he's got a better athlete guarding him (I suspect he will, but eager to see it).
Anyone interested in Mike Moser? Dude rebounds and plays hard.
Some meaningnless stats/trivia coming into the Dec3 matchup (underlining if there's a notable difference);

In fairness .. both of these guys have a tremendous amount of talent around them. If anything, I think you have to give more of an edge to Teague because not only is Kendall a year older, in the same system, but he had the same SG, SF, PF, and C in the starting lineup all year.
At this point in the season.. Knight was averaging 17+pts, shooting lights out, averaging just shy of 7 assists per game, and had begun to rarely turn the ball over.
In short, I'd rather have Knight, as a sophomore, than Teague or Marshall (this year), by a mile.

I second the notion.
I did a loose comparison .. it's not even close. Knight has Teague bested at everything.
Catchall: Yeah, I really like Moser .. I could see him getting some mid-1st love.
With better bb IQ.
I'm trying to find PGs to get excited about... I thought Tim Hardaway Jr. played some PG last year. Maybe I'm thinking of someone else.
Could be wrong, but I thought jr was more of a SG? There's not much out there to be excited about. I predict, that 3 years from, PG's will be few and far between in the NBA (good ones). There will be the handful of stud vets, but the young talent .. ouch.
I told everyone we should have picked Knight over Kanter...............

And miss out on the Marshall sweepstakes? I'm disappointed in you, Cy.
I just have this terrible feeling Kanter is the next Darko.
THJ mainly plays SF and a little SG. I am already seeing a lot of improvement from last year - he seems to have more of an all around game. Wish Morris (pg) would have stayed one more season instead of going to the Lakers. That being said, the freshman PG Burke is filling in very nicely.
