Following potential 2012 draftees

Defensively, Davis may get after it a bit more than Garnett, but I'm not seeing the offensive explosiveness or deftness around the rim and off the dribble that KG had. That said, Davis looks more dynamic than Camby. He may be a different player if/when he gets stronger.
 
I'm not saying Davis will be better than either. I'm saying that he may become a more overall complete player .. he's THAT dominant defensively and his offense is way better than understood.

If that is the article I think it is .. (I didn't click) .. it's not a good article for Rivers. He didn't endear himself to fans with his "I've had a hard life" pitch.

He didn't say anything like that in this article, the only time he referenced his past was the above quote and this one.

"I just never worry about it. It's amazing: A lot of people always ask me, 'What do I think of expectations?' " Rivers said. "I think people in life always worry about pressure and expectations when basketball is a game, something I've been doing since I was 6 years old. I have no pressure. I go out there and have fun."

I was wondering if John Henson could play the 3 ala ak. Hr grew up playing a guard spot then grew 6 inches. It would be interesting to see. If he could then that would be a good pick up for us although he is not a great 3 pt shooter.

He can't. That experiment failed miserably at UNC. He'd get destroyed in the NBA. He's a shot-blocking machine and a great shot to about 12'.
 
It's probably a year or two early for him, but I think Shane Larkin from Miami is an interesting PG prospect. Undersized, but quick as hell and has a pretty decent shot. Does a good job distributing the ball....also he's the son of Hall of Famer Barry Larkin. Good bloodlines.
