Agree with Pgardn here, think Rubio has huge upside. Hans is a classic "tweener" but with his work ethic and maturity, I think he will easily match Lee's numbers, he showed signs of having a good mid-range jumper, on Rome show he talked about that, he gets it! Lawson is way way underrated!

Point guard is not a position where you can be " a project" like center. At least with a center, a guy has size and can clog the middle and defend and grab rebounds while he is learning. That isnt the case at point guard. In order for a point guard to play, he has to be ready to run the offense. Do you really want to trust a slow 18 year old that doesnt shoot it well to run your offense? Do you really want to invest a top 5 pick on a guy that you hope will develop into an NBA guard? I ask again, how many "projects" have made it at point guard? |

I'd rather have Lawson over Rubio. Rubio might turn out to be a star but I've seen enough of these highly regarded foreign players that don't pan out. Guys like Zoran Planinic and Nikoloz Tskitishvili and Darko Milicic Yaroslav Korolev and Saer Sene and Yi Jianlian and Danilo Gallinari. I'd rather take a guy that excelled at the highest level of amateur basketball night in and night out against future NBA players. Rubio does look really good though and anyone that passes him up may regret it later but I'd go with Lawson. That guy is a real player and you know exactly what you'll get with him. It's sort of like do you want the horse that will run you some consistent 100 Beyers and win the occassional grade three race or do you want the one that will be like Discreet Cat or Commentator, have the potential to be brilliant but for some reason, never sustain it.

And I still think that Lester Hudson is going to make some team happy that they drafted him.
