Who has the most promise?

[dossier]

What you player drafted in the last three years has the most promise to you?

To me it's Brandon Roy. His game is so complete and soo smooth. I can see him redifineing the SG position.

Re: Who has the most promise?

Well I highly doubt Roy will redefine the position. I think Durant is going to come up in this thread the most though. He's only 20 and is good for around 24, 6 and 3. He still has so much room for his game and his body to grow. Roy is going to be great but I don't think he has as much room for growth as Durant.

Yup, Durant.

I think Brook Lopez will be surprising.

O.J. Mayo is having the kind of rookie year that Roy had. I'll go with Mayo

Re: Who has the most promise?

Explain what Roy will and can do to redefine the position?

Re: Who has the most promise?

I agree with Durant, though I'd throw Rondo's name in there as well.

Re: Who has the most promise?

I just can't see any young/rookie player redifining any position. Can't see them doing something that hasn't been done before.

Name me other 6'10" shooting guards who effectively played in the league. (Jared Jeffries does not count)

I'm with trob... Durant is a player that will redefine his position, is younger and less developed than Roy (leaving him more room for improvement) and already has a ton of talent. In three years I see Durant being just as good or better than Roy.

Not a big deal, but Durant isn't playing the 2 anymore.

Probably a big reason he's putting up such nice numbers.

Re: Who has the most promise?

I gotta go with Derrick Rose. Once he gets a consistent jumpshot and expand his range to the 3 point line nobody will be able to guard him and he'll be a top 3 point guard in the league. Plus he's a solid defender right now and that's only going to improve.

Re: Who has the most promise?

I think D.J. Augustin is going to surprise a lot of people. Although he is undersized, he is very quick off the dribble, and he can shoot very well. Also, he has one of the best FT% in the league right now. Many people don't get to see him because he plays in a small market, but he is going to be a good player for many years in the Association.

Allen Iverson has already redifined sg position

Re: Who has the most promise?

Roy is outstanding. But wont redifine the position. Neither will Durant who hasnt done anythang along the lines of winning games or making his team any better for that matter. Durant is going to be like Dominque Wilkins somewhat. A scorer of epic proportions with no rings for his troubles. Roy has the better chance of winning chips.

Rose was a good mention. I thank his potential is unlimited.
He plays winning basketball. He looks for teamates 1st.

Mayo is going to be a real force but i dont know if he wins anythang either.

Roy is the best out of these players. Now and Future.

Already is IMO.

I was thinking the same thing myself. Great player...but uh, 'redefine'...?




...waiting for GSW to mention Anthony Randolph.

Re: Who has the most promise?

redifine was a gross exageration.
