ok ill admit im not the most knowledgeable about college basketball. in fact outside of maryland games i only watched NCAA tournament pretty much but i was looking at derrick rose stats. 15/5. that doesnt make me jump out and say wow first overall pick right there. please enlighten me.

He played on a damn good roster, he led his team to the championship, he plays like Deron Williams, and he dominated every other PG prospect in the tournament.

deron williams college averages were like 11 and 6. chris paul's were like 15 and 6..

wow really...

it must be tough as **** to draft a pg.
i just didnt see the amazing play that makes him number one overall pick. i mean what i saw from him, he was good but i wasnt amazed or anything.

yeah thats how different college ball is from NBA..

There's almost zero chance he'll bust.

Dominant athleticism mixed with a high-level understanding of the game, and he'll have just turned 20 when the season starts.

I think, once he comes into his own, the worst thing you'll be able to say about the guy is that he's not a Top 5 point guard. And that's a worst-case scenario.

well im not knowledgeable on the subject so your probably right. people in general must be seeing something im not cuz he doesnt look like a future franchise player as of today.

His athletic ability, but then again I have been pretty lukewarm on him for most of the year. He has a lot of fans on here though

i disagree that worst case scenario is him being just outside the top 5 pgs.

i think he's gotten overrated and will be a mild disappointment as a top two pick(as will beasley) because i don't see him really having superstar ability but he's definitely going to be a good player.
