Re: The best player in 2009 Nba Draft
[QUOTE=wang4three]Do you know how hard it is to get into the NBA? You need to have ridiculous talent to get into the NBA, so much talent that they could play on their off hand and be better than everyone not in the NBA. Outside of UNC and possibly [SIZE="7"][B]UConn (possibly)[/B][/SIZE] there aren't many colleges that really consistently pump out NBA stud after NBA stud. The fact that Duke even produces players that make the NBA should alone attest to their ability.
I don't like Duke. I really don't, never really have. I'm not the biggest Coach K fan, I think he's a bit of a phony..but I have the utmost respect for him and the university's basketball program.
It's just hard to make the NBA. Seriously.[/QUOTE]
UConn fanhood/homerism in effect.
Williams/Ollie
Allen/Hamilton/Gordon
Gay/Butler/Marshall
Villanueva/Boone
Okafor/Armstrong
If I am correct I'm pretty sure all were first rounders, I think I may be missing a few. Upgrade that possible to sure thing.

Reason I wrote possibly is because of length of tenure like a UNC. UNC has been pumping out stars forever.
No university is a "sure thing" though. None.

True, but UConn has been going pretty strong since 94ish or whenever Allen/Marshall were drafted.

[QUOTE=utahjazzrock]Rubio could be another Baragnanni.
Overseas player. Seems amazing. Goes high in draft. Plays fairly well but not worth as high if a pick as we was taken.
Harden, I think Hasheem Thabeet will do well.
Tyler Hansbrough could be real good on the right team.[/QUOTE]
to be fair - bargnani has just started to scratch the surface though, we dont even know what his ceiling is yet
rubio looked real solid playing hurt in the olympics - not flashy, just a cool character with the ball in his hands
i dont really see a team where hansbrough makes a difference

[QUOTE=InspiredLebowski]so if he leaves a guy like Curry could definitely be the pick. [B]But if it's over Monroe then I'm sending some really nasty emails.[/B][/QUOTE]
