Let's make this an NCAA turning-pro thread.

 

Arizona's Marcus Williams and LSU's Glenn Davis also are going to turn pro.

 

That works for me.

terrific, another Duke bust in the NBA.

 

Actually, if McRoberts is willing to play defense and rebound, he might make a decent career for himself. If he tries to play a finesse game and stays on the perimeter, he'll definitely fail.

there have been plenty of duke busts, but some pretty good successes too. Brand, Deng, to a point, Maggette. Hill has had injury problems, but was a star before that. Boozer has been solid. Jay Williams let an off court mistake ruin a promising young career. It's too early to judge shelden or JJ

So, does Duke miss the tournament next year?

 

I doubt it-they still have Kyle Singler coming in, and him combined with the people they have right now will put them into the tournament.

Singler, along with what they have already, should get Duke in the same place they were this year - middle of the ACC and in the tourney.

They're completely barren inside though, I can't think they're any type of lock, especially how they seemingly regressed during the year.

Duhon may be the most surprising of them all. He didn't bust after Duke, he was Duke's biggest bust while he was still there. He's turned out to be a rather quality role player for the Bulls.

Just please stay away from McRoberts as far as you can, Pax.

 

Horford Horford Horford.

 

I would love that.

Thirded. Horford's going to dominate.

I think he'll go higher than the Bulls pick, sadly. It looked for a while like a lot of folks were sleeping on him but he's finally moving up mock drafts.

 

Stupid Knicks.

Pacer fans are rooting like crazy to lose right now-their first round pick that is supposed to head to Atlanta this year is top 10 protected, and with this deep draft Pacer fans would love a top 10 pick.

I wish! But with 6-8 McDonald's All-Americans, I highly doubt it. They'll be weaker in the paint, but they'll probably still be an improved team.

 

I wanna know how team with that many All Americans can even be worried about missing the tourney. Hell I wish Mizzou had one on their team let alone that many.
