It is impressive that everyone made the NBA... and yeah it seems like Telfair will end up as the worst player there. I don't count Livingston due to that nasty injury.

shaun livingston might not be the same player after his injury though, so maybe telfair is only 2nd worst

Didn't know how good this class was but I think that Telfair can turn it around and just be the second worst player to Big Baby

Boobie is greater just because he helped get Cleveland in the Finals.

Gibson's better because he serves a purpose. He's an elite shooter.

Telfair is below average at everything.

Is that the entire list, or is this the team with Malik Hairston and Joe Crawford? They may have been the year before, but I thought it was 04. Watching these two play in the PSL Championship (Detroit public schools) on the same team was insane. I was hoping for more out of them in college.

That's a valid point. I think that means he's better than Rondo, because Telfair did more to help turn Boston around than Rondo did.
