    Default Which Incoming Rookie Would You Like To See Succeed?

    Hard mode: not your own team's rookie


    I'm going with Mario Hezonja or Stanley Johnson. Super Mario has infinite attitude and swag. He's not the same tier of prospect that young Kobe was, but he has that same intensity. Stanley "Big Johnson" is exactly the type of guy I want on my team. Tough, athletic, skilled but plays within his abilities.

    Kristaps Porzingis, but not for NY.


    Just for their stupid booing during the draft

    Mudiay. He's an explosive guard with potential.

    I would also like to see Towns or Okafor become a stud.

    Porzingis. Not only to succeed but become the next Dirk

    Justise Winslow will be a star by year 3.

    Towns (always on the lookout for a dominant big), Mudiay (for his elegant style of play, first step, speed changes, and deceptive hangtime), Winslow (one of those do-it-all team players who seem to be everywhere on the court at once).

    I have my doubts about Okafor but I'd love to see someone with his style of play dominate.

    Oh, and Porzingis is practically expected by everyone to be a bust... It's always nice to see someone prove critics wrong, so if he pulls it off that'll be something to enjoy.

    Stanley Johnson mostly because I picked him to be the better player than Justice Winslow.
    We'll see how that works out.

    All of them. The future of the NBA is at stake. We need to see some great competitive teams especially in the east.

    Stanley Johnson definitely. He has the tools to be a great player in the future and I've always been a pretty big fan of the Pistons. A core of Reggie Jackson, KCP, Johnson and Drummond will be fun to watch

    Porn and Russell. Give NY and LAL a future.

    Payne would also be interesting.
