There is a reason all you hear about with this class is depth.  There are a lot of decent players. Just no stars. Boring.

Anthony Davis, but yeah, other than that no super stars..

14 and 10. Meh. I guess he's long and stuff and blocks a lot of shots. Just can't get excited about him. But you're right, he has the potential to be a very good NBA player.

Just looked at a 2012 mock draft for the first time. My goodness what a terrible draft class. College basketball is a joke this year.

You're kidding right?  This is one of the deepest draft classes in years.  Jared Sullinger and Terrence Jones would have been top 5 picks last year.

   this is the weakest draft class in 40+ years.  Get a clue.  For gods sake, T-Rob, who is basically a poor man's Trevor Booker, is projected to be a top 3 pick.  That should tell you all you need to know.

[EMAWmeister]

I feel like there is a difference between an NBA All Star and an NBA "star".  The star-power comes with personalities.  I don't see that in this draft.  But there is still talent.

T-Rob is charasmatic, and will become a "star" if he performs like he should.

is there something more important when discussing the NBA draft?

Usually in a #1 pick you want more than a guy with the potential to become a good player. With the #1 pick you would like an immediate superstar, a franchise type guy. Lebron James, Kevin Durant, Derrick Rose, Blake Griffin. I don't see a guy like that in this draft.

spoke with my nba guy who confirmed that this class is dogshit

[pissclams]

of course you want an immediate superstar.  i want to win the powerball.  guys like kyrie irving, greg oden, andrea bargnani, andrew bogut, and kwame brown get drafted #1 too. 

durant jr's aren't popping into the league every year.

Yeah, about half of the NBA drafts suck. And 2012 is in the suck half.

Clams, both of the NBA guys I know concur that this class is short on star power and long on "solid NBA career guys".  Both also think the forgeign and mid-major crowd has more upside than most of the big name college stars in this years draft...

[HELLHAMMER]

T-Rob will be in Europe or jail in 6 years.

"The most recent in a long line of talented Texas Longhorns guards, junior shooting guard J’Covan Brown, has declared himself eligible for the 2012 NBA Draft.

One of the country’s most creative scorers, the variety of offensive moves Brown has in his arsenal have caught the eye of NBA scouts and opposing coaches across the country. During the 2011-2012 season, Brown averaged a career-high 20.1 points per game, also adding 3.3 rebounds per game and 3.8 assists per game."

Wait, who is T-Rob? I mean I know alot about CBB as someone ITK, and I don't know who this person is. If he/she is indeed projected to be top 3 in this years draft, then JFC this class is dogshit.

This thread blows, because of the shitty draft talk.  But if this dude leaves early and gets drafted then team weak draft will have a resounding victory.  What can Brown do (for your NBA team)?  The answer is, not a damn thing.

He can shoot it.  No guarantees about making them, but he'll shoot it.  I could see him as a SG on a second string for a crappy team

The world wide leader in sports is reporting Austin Rivers is going pro.

Oh I agree, I wouldn't want him.  But I think someone who thinks he can add scoring to a second unit may.

[OregonSmock]

Bradley Beal will be a superstar at the next level.  Austin Rivers could be as well.  Then you've got Davis, Robinson, Sullinger, T. Jones, Gilchrist, etc.  This class is absolutely stacked.  Only a moron K-State dork would think otherwise. 

[sonofdaxjones]

Lotta moron dorks round here.

[MichiganisGood]

lol this guy is a moron..

Davis/Beal are the only POTENTIAL superstars in the class (unless some foreign studs come in) and Beal has not even announced as of yet..

Rivers, Robinson, Gilchrist, Robinson, Sully, Jones are all the next tier of solid 2nd or 3rd options on NBA teams, at best..

[OregonSmock]

This Michigan douche has an incredibly low BBIQ.  What is he even doing on this board in the first place?  Sheesh.

Lemme fix that for you beems.  LOL
