Um, McGary is also the same age as Favors. That changes a lot of things.

Not true. Favors born summer of 1991, McGary summer of 1992. WCS summer of 1993. His age makes a difference, yes, but can you name me 5 players that have played better than he has this tournament?
 
Who's tourney is helping his draft stock more?:

Burke:
36% FG
27% 3PT
2.3 FTA
1.3 REB
8.0 ASST
0.67 STL
4.3 TOs
15.7 PTs
One super comeback win

MCW:
49% FG
50% 3PT
5.3 FTA
5.8 REB
5 ASST
3.3 STL
2.3 TO
13.0 PTS
No comebacks, but key reason Syracuse won all games comfortably

I don't think either are really doing anything out of what they showed they were in the regular season. Some others who were previously in front of them may have dropped though.

Me too.

Today's line: 12 pts, 11 rebs, 5 asts, 3 steals, 2 blks, 2 TO's, 4-9 FG, 1-1 3pt.

I get the feeling that with his attributes & athleticism, things will come a bit easier for him than Burke in the NBA too. I know Burke has a lot of heart and determination, no question about that. But I also see a "fighter" in MCW - he's a score that looks to pass first which to me is a great sign.

I think he'll have a decent NBA career.

MCW shoots 39% from the floor while being an oversized athletic PG. I struggle to call him a "scorer" when he has about as much natural scoring ability as Kendall Marshall.

It's not a popular view, but I'd think MCW is having a better tournament overall at the moment. His length is really causing havocs with solid steal numbers and solid rebound numbers.

He's always going to be scary good when he starts to hit those 3pt shots and that's what he's done. Because of that he's able to drive to the lane, finish over shorter guards and dish it if need be.

He's scary good if he can hit that 3pt shot. Scary.

I'm just basing that comment re scorer on what DX wrote about him coming out of high school:

A highly-ranked guard with tremendous scoring abilities and instincts, Michael Carter-Williams (#30 Scout, #16 Rivals, #32 ESPN) is in a unique situation on his high school team, which requires him to shoulder a massive burden of shot creation responsibilities.

He has transformed himself into a pass first PG, but he was a scoring guard before he joined Syracuse.

So he could score in HS......

He can't score in college efficiently.

I don't see him scoring in the NBA efficiently.

Poor man's Jason Kidd at best, more likely Shaun Livingston.
