Most of this kids are one and out. The top high school prospects are usually always the top picks in the draft. Unless you make a name for yourself in the NCAA

I wouldn't say 'way better' in regards to his jumpshot and range. Still a long way to go in that area. He also needs to get a lot stronger to be able to finish in the paint. No doubt he's electric, but still a few years away from being ready.
I truly think we can a playoff team next year if we stay healthy the whole way through and Devin has a good grasp on what Ty wants to get done out there. If we miss it and land in the lotto, I think there will be other options besides Kabongo (I doubt he'll go pro after his frosh year anyways).
For whatever it's worth, Brad Beal will be my favorite player in college next year. He is a future all-star. He's going to be a freshman at Florida, and I'm assuming one and done.

Usually but not always. I'm just saying, we should wait a while before we have stupid speculation on players that we know almost nothing about.
Epic fail. First, never 'tank.' Second, of all the players in the next draft, why would we target the guy that's about the 15th best player that year.
I've said for 6 months that our next PG should come from FA, I'm willing to bet that's the case.

Do you think it's possible that the age limit to when someone can enter the NBA is increased again with the next CBA?
I'm not so sure that we should be already proclaiming next year to be the "best draft class since 2003", quite yet. The new CBA may add a slight twist to the status quo.

LOVE Brad Beal.
Most speculation I've read is it would not pertain to the 2012 class, but rather start with 2013 .. we'll see.
I did a quick research on the PG crop coming out for 2012, pretty underwhelming quantity. Only two PG's who seem to have lottery potential, Kabongo and Teague. I'd much rather have Kabongo. From what I've read he seems to be a true PG, which I like.
I also like Kendall Marshall in the 2nd round possibly. True PG who averaged a ton of assist as a freshman and didn't have to many TO's.
I think the Jazz will probably try to package their 1st round picks and a player to move up into the draft(assuming our pick isn't already high) to nab one of the top players.

Just my opinions ..
- I'd take Kabongo over Teague
- I'd take neither in the lottery in 2012
- There's minimal drop-off between 1 and 12 in that draft. Stacked with studs .. I could just about make an argument for 10 guys going #1.

Ok I will admit I'm a big fan of Brad Beal. And since I'm sure you follow recruiting and I know you follow college bball, what are your thoughts on Rodney Purvis? I know it's early in relation to the NBA, but I like him quite a bit too. You should start a college bball thread btw, something to keep us busy.
