    Default Anyone notice Michael Beasley one upping Durant so far?

    I know it's only three games, but he's averaging 30/20 for K-State.....30/20.

    I claimed during Durant's freshman season that Beasley would be better than him...I don't even know if I was being entirely serious or if I meant college or NBA....but this guy is at least playing like another Durant right now.

    I will say right now as an NBA player I do like him better. He plays inside more and thus won't go through as many horrible shooting nights to start his career which most likely will be next season.

    I might have to put him above Rose as the best prospect in the world soon.

    If the Sonics got the #1 pick, I'd hope they would pick Beasley (if they do plan on playing Durant at the 2). He's 235 and will only gain weight so he can play pf at 6'9" (especially if they play up tempo).

    Having a lineup featuring:

    pg: ?
    sg: Durant
    sf: Green
    pf: Beasley
    c: Wilcox

    Would be crazy with time to grow. Yes, Drafting Rose to run the point would be swell, but I like the size on this potential team.

    Despite the kid's apparent sh*tty attitude, his mix of size, strength, shooting, rebounding etc makes him the #1 pick if he continues playing even half as well this year.

    I do worry that he won't get the coaching and discipline he needs this year, like he would have if Huggins had stayed at K-State.

    Man...I wish Kansas State was coming to Texas A&M when we play them but they arent. I was really looking forward to this future NBA star play. I will have to settle to watching DeAndre Jordan every game which isnt bad.

    I wouldn't want Wilcox starting on a good team period....but there's nothing else right now unless Petro or UWC step up.

    The pg situation is much more of a question, hence me leaving it blank.

    Wonder if this is the sickest start any college player has ever had.

    Game 1: 31/24/4/2/4 on 60%FG
    Game 2: 30/14/3/1/0 on 63%FG
    Game 3: 28/22/2/2/1 on 63%FG

    Doesn't get much better than that, even if it has been against crappy teams. Seems like he could easily end up averaging over 20/10 in his rookie year.

    uwc? unidentified white chap?

    i think collison is a fine starter. good defender. can hit the midrange shot and has post moves.

    luc longley and oberto aren't all that either.

    Ugly White Creature actually. I forgot about Collison. He's serviceable I guess.

    The sames teams Durant started out playing and didn't average 30/20?

    He is beasting it, plus there is Roy Hibbert, Kevin Love, Kosta Koufas, Brandon Costner, etc.


    And, My Favorite of them all and I would like to see him drafted by the Timberwolves.

    Serge Ibaka

    turned 18 in september
    playing pro ball in Spain but entering the draft is confirmed pretty much, he is from the Congo.

    6'10" 225lbs

    his vertical could not be tested at Reebock europe, maxed the machine out

    First funamentally sound African bigman prospect, he has 3 pt range, a sick help shotblocker, he even keeps the ball up after getting it and rebounds and puts it up, I think he is going to be sick. A great tandem with Jefferson, compliment eachother well.

    Watch that pick somehow be used to get someone to take on Marbury.
