I agree with pkm. I think this draft is stronger then people think.
Where would these guys go in a normal draft?

You're making me work a bit here...
David Thorpe: Irving...is a heady point guard who's fundamentally sound. He's a vocal floor leader who uses a quick first step to penetrate. He also has a solid jump shot that can stretch defenses. While he doesn't have the elite speed of a player like Wall or Rajon Rondo, he's a more sophisticated scorer than those two were at this point.
Jonathan Givony: He is a complete offensive player at the age of 18... Now, he's not quite as athletic as Derrick Rose or John Rose, but is more advanced... This guy is a sure-fire NBA star and a player you can build a team around.

Cool. I would take Irving #1 everyday of the week .. I'm higher than most anyone on the kid .. he's special. No John Wall. John Wall will prove to be an "All-Time" great ... most agree there's no comparison. Having said that, Irving will be an all-star.
