C - 7'1 Robin Lopez
PF - 7' Hassan Whiteside
SF - 6'10 1/2 Earl Clark
SG - 6'7 Xavier Henry
PG - 6'4 Goran Dragic

That would be a horrible team next year but fun to watch develop.

What would be fun about watching that team develop?

Zero star potential, zero freak athletes, no amazing shooters. They are all kind of BLAH.

Maybe if there was a Rose, Jennings, Wall, Tyreke or even an Evan Turner or Wes Johnson... But overall there is nothing FUN about that team.

 

[slinslin]

They have a lot of size, especially in the frontcourt you have 3 players who are very long, can rebound and alter shots, baby twin towers.

Xavier Henry and Earl Clark have some star potential.

To get star potential you need a top lottery pick really, we won't get that until we suck a year, suck next year and get Harrison Barnes 6'8 SG or Perry Jones 6'11 PF and there you go.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Xavier Henry and Earl Clark have some star potential.

I have mixed feelings about Henry. Even though he's very young, he's already a well-rounded player but I don't know if there is any single aspect to his game that would sell him as an NBA star. He can probably shoot well enough to sit on the perimeter but his lack of a 1st step is going to make it difficult for him to get his own shot. I think he translates to a Calbert Cheaney kind of career.

[Black Jesus]

Yeah, if Xavier Henry was going to be a star, you'd of seen him on a AP All-American team. He is a good player that will play in the NBA, but he is no star.

 

[slinslin]

He just turned 19 and plays on probably the deepest NCAA team and you expect him to be AP All-American, lol.

 

[slinslin]

Oh 5 Kentucky players declare

Wall
Cousins
Patterson
Bledsoe
Orton

I really like Bledsoe, wish we could get him somehow. He is ultra athletic, can shoot, rebound, defend and pass. I see him possibly become a triple double threat like Russel Westbrook.

If Orton actually declares I see him drop to the bottom of the first or even mid second round. He'd be worth drafting as a project big man too.

nbadraft.net has Bledsoe and Orton at #27 and #28 right now.
