Heh.

I would also choose Henry, because I think he's as good a shooter as Johnson, close as a scorer, has very good size for a SG, and good size for a SF(not quite as good as Johnson), and has a better handle. He's obviously not as athetic as Johnson, but he's pretty strong.

But the fact that he's a lot younger and we could very likely get him with the 16th pick (or could move up without having to sell the farm) is huge.

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.

Henry definitely has potential, but I see that he has is the tendency to disappear from games, kind of like Marvin Williams. Obviously he's really young and has a ton of room to grow but I could see that being an issue. He doesn't seem to have the killer #1 or #2 option instincts. If he's there at #16 you take him no questions asked because the kid no doubt could end up being a huge value there.

Henry at 16 >>>>> Wes at 4

Yes, you can say the exact same thing about WJ. This should be even more concerning with WJ though as he's already 22(I think) years old. You can pretty much slam the door on this debate though as Devilz suggested.

Henry. Not a Johnson fan at all. Especially at 4.

How many comparison threads do we need? We already have a prospect thread.

Overall:

Johnson > George > Henry

By pick:

George or Henry @ 16 (or trade up to 10-14) > Johnson at 4

Well evidently we need one for every combination. With two rounds in the draft, I think it's something like 1770 threads.

Why not make threads for any single player who could possibly be picked in the draft?

That's like 100-200 new threads on this board.

in my honest opinion this prospect thread is the bestest.


I'm afraid the cat is out of the bag and the X-man will be gone before pick #16. Now if we trade the Flynnster to Indy for the #10. We could pick O'Henry right there at that there pick we would be acquisitioning I reckon.

Big Al -> 7 + Tay P (a Prince 2 MN deal is our d3stiny and a gr8 idea which nothing compares 2.)
4 + 7 -> 2 - Turner
10 - Henry
16 - Sanders
23 - George

Rubio-Sessions
Turner-Brewer-Wayne
Prince-Henry-Prince-George
Love/Sanders
Darko/Peko
