Looking over everyone that has thrown their name into the NBA Draft hat I have to wonder how good this group of college and overseas players are going to be. Right away you know that John Wall will at least become an All-Star level talent as long as he doesn't get himself injured. You got most of the Kentucky team, Kansas All-league players, they big guy from Butler, and so on. On paper it looks like the 1st round could pay off for every team involved if they pick the right guy for what their team needs.

This certainly isn't the better class then say 96 Class or 2003, but there could still be a lot of quality talent in the 2nd round this year. Your thoughts on the draft and maybe who will make the most out of the draft this year.

It's alright, but I don't think this year's draft is that strong. John Wall at # 1 wouldn't be a bad choice, but the kid has more to work on. Also, when I look at ESPN, I see a kid by the name of Daniel Orton who is 10th on Ford's Big Board. The kid didn't even do anything at Kentucky. Does he have good size? Like B.J. Mullens, right?

I think compared to some of the last few drafts it is one of the deeper drafts. There are a lot of quality big men and a good amount of shooters.

2009 was a hugely underrated draft, largely because out of the first 5 players chosen only one has displayed his lottery talent so far in evans. But after that it got interesting with players like ty lawson, darren collison, roddy b

not at all. I see MAYBE 3 potential superstars. Wall, Turner and Johnson. And Johnson is pushing it. Turner has Brandon Roy written all over him

yeah i think so.....in this year draft you could get really good quality players later in the draft it will be really stacked with good players.
