    Looking at the Kansas Jayhawks...

    I think we are looking at 4 or 5 very solid NBA players in the future from this team.

    Aaron Miles is the prototypical point guard and would translate well in the NBA in my opinion. He's a lot like a Brevin Knight. Both can consistently hit the mid range jumpshot and are some of the best at controlling the tempo on offense and defense and can find the open man.

    Wayne Simien is the best big man in the country other than Andrew Bogut. Simien will probably be a very good NBA player and has a chance to one day be a franchise type player. Offensively, he's solid all-around and can even hit jumpshots. He's like a Chris Webber or a Carlos Boozer

    JR Giddens is the wild card. He's got the showcase talent that fits in the NBA. I dont see him being a star though, more of a person to be first off the bench to come in and dunk on someone and knock down key three pointers. He's got good size, and I see him turning into a Cuttino Mobley type player.

    Keith Langford is very good, but he doesn't have the best jumpshot. Although it is improving, he will get plenty of open looks because defenders have to respect his penetration. He's a little undersized, but he's another guy that could play impact minutes off the bench in comparison to a Manu Ginobili with less of a jumpshot.

    Galindo and Russell Robinson are good, but I haven't seen enough of them...

    If JR ever realizes that he's one of the best athletes in Basketball, the sky is the limit for him.He relies wayyyyyy too much on shooter 25 footers.

            I'm not impressed by any of the Jayhawks when it comes to the NBA.
            Miles will not make it because players his with his skills are a dime a dozen. He needs to develop a consistant jump shot.
            Simien could be a NBA player similar to Nene or a poor mans Boozer but by no means is he a Chris Webber.
            Giddens could make it if put on the right team in the right situation. I here he struggles with ball handling so this may cause him problems. However, he can shoot and is athletic.
            Langford will not make it.

                Why will Langford not make it and how is Simien a Nene? You sound like a Mizzou fan.

                    I'm not so sure about the whole 'can hit the midrange jumper' specially when you use brevin knight as an example

                    Simien looks to be decent, but I don't understand how you compare Webber and Boozer a like? Only thing they have in common is they both play PF..

                    Giddens reminds me of a Posey type player with the range and athletic ability
                    I do because I can, I can because I want, I want because you say I can't

                        I watch almost every Bobcats game and Brevin can consistently hit the midrange jumper 2 steps inside the three.

                        Simien is a very good rebounder a la Boozer and has a good jumpshot and good hands like Webber.

                            How tall is Wayne Simien?
                            Just wait till Arsenal moves into Emirates Stadium.
