We would all be considered brilliant if we moved to the Antonio.They must have 15-20 Walmarts in that area alone.

He is 10th I think. He is 7 feet tall and a really good athlete. Kind of raw but may develop into a Tyson Chandler type.

KIND of?
He is sushi raw.
He has not been born yet raw.

Holy crap.
No hands.
No basketball sense.
No pivot moves, no offensive skills whatsoever.
I watched him multiple times this year.

Reclaimation, reclaimation.
He will be a true project.

Fransisco Elson is a better athlete
thatn Jordan and he is just flat out
a bad basketball player that happens to
be an athlete.

Is Mel Kuiper doing this rating also?

He is 19 and 7 feet 260. He can run and jump. You can teach guys how to play basketball but there are very few with the physical tools that he has. I have no idea if he will work hard enough to become a good NBA player or just be a second stringer but the guy has the physical parts.

Doesn't UCLA already have daily pick up game filled with former stars that left early and flopped? Love needs to stay and increase his first round value after his 4th year and a degree.

All schools have pick up games with ex-Iwannabeapros playing.

With Love I think you got a guy that is what you see is
what you get. Because he is not athletic, he does not
have a tremendous upside (such as a guy like Jordan at ATM
might have).

So staying... I dont know how much it helps him. I think the question
is this a weak year for Centers. I dont know how many foreign guys
are being looked at. If Hibert at Georgetown is considered the gold
standard (which I hope he is not), then Love would be a lottery pick. I really dont know what kind of "Center" year this is.

What is clear to me is that you dont find guys that
large with that kind of basketball skill level. He is smart
in so many ways on the court that a lot of what he does
lack, jumping, speed, he makes up for.

I can only speak my opinion for one pro team. Imo the
Spurs would take him in a heartbeat. As I stated earlier, he
is better than any "Center" they have now. The only question
would be if he could handle the very quick switching defense
one particular pro team requires. I also think he is better than
Splitter who will be with the Spurs most likely next year.

Beasely is obviously the first pick in the draft unless some team
has found a really good foreign player.

Love is not an NBA center. Hibbert is not highly coveted either.

He is with Duncan the Power forward.
If Curt Thomas and F. Oberto are Centers
than tell me why Love is not?

Again the Center Power Forward thing is all messed up.

jeeps...

The Stanford twins leaving.

Lottery picks get lottery money. Staying hasnt helped Hansboro move up. Who has stayed 4 years lately and has benefited?

I completely dont get it.

Walmarts do well in San Antonio
because this is not a well-to-do city.
Because the Republicans drink the blood
of the poor? Right? So you actually feel
sorry for those that have to shop there... yes?

No. I'm not a fan of any team in the tournament. I just know an overrated player when I see one. He does have teammates and they are overall a good group.

He'll be terrible in the pros.
