Like I said, everyone has opinions, but hahahahahah @ some of those names. Perry Jones? really? Anthony Randolph 2.0? Jonas V? Who hasn't proven ANYTHING? Please...


What has Knight really proven other than being able to stoke fanboy desires with his size for position and being a super-hyped HS recruit?

This sounds like the love for P. Jones lol. Knight has shown he's a competitor and a gamer.

Boy, part 5 of his thread and I've read some of the stupidest **** ever.

Perry Jones not a top 10 pick?
Barnes not a top 5 pick?
Irving not the best PG in the draft?

Someone even talked "highly" about Rose and Westbrooks PG skills in college. Did you even watch them in college? LOL.

I have a request, this kind of stupidity should've happened in one of the early threads back near the start of the season, not this close to the draft. It's ridiculous to read this kind of stuff in March. Wow.

He's 1.5 years younger than Walker, not 3 or 4. Walker scores 7 points a game more than Knight and has a much better A/T ratio and averages 2 steals per game to Knight's 0.5.

In the biggest games of the year, Walker's only gotten better. Walker averaged 26 points in the Big East tournament against a bunch of top 25 teams focused on stopping him because UConn only has an emerging Jeremy Lamb as any other sort of offensive weapon. In the tournament Walker's averaging 29. Knight had a great second game in the tournament scoring 31 but he scored 2 points against Harvard and is having another poor night tonight.

Current ability wise, they're not comparable at all. Knight is about size & future potential. Kemba is a better player.

No one spoke highly of Rose and Westbrook's PG skills in college. If you were referring to me, I said their PG skills were restricted in the college game much like Brandon Knights.

NO ****ING ****, I never said better, I said comparable. We're projecting to the next level, that's the entire point of the draft and the reason for my preference for Knight over Walker. And I don't think I ever said 3/4, did I? Kemba's a junior/Knight a Frosh, which is why I said two years.

Anyway, I don't hate Kemba at all, he's a great player, just stating my preference.

Barnes not being a top 5 pick is a possibility and most likely FAAAAR from being the stupidest thing you've heard here


Irving
Williams
Sullinger
Valanciunas
Perry Jones

can go top 5
