    Best PG prospects...

    I was wondering who everyone thought was going to be the better prospect coming into the 2011 draft.

    I know Kyrie Irving if healthy is #1 but who finishes out the list.

    Between Brandon Knight and Kemba Walker. Knight has a considerable size advantage and is younger but Walker has been lighting it up this year. But which ones skill set translates better to the pros. I havent watched much of Brandon Knight this year but I have seen Kemba Walker put up some amazing games scoring the basketball. so I was just looking for some opinions.

      Re: Best PG prospects...

      I'll throw a few more names:

      Josh Selby and Jimmer Fredette.

      It's honestly a crap shoot in the PG field this year. You just don't know how any of them will pan out on the next level.

      I look at all of their skill sets and I honestly can't really make any pointed predictions.

      I believe all of the names mentioned in this thread will go in the first round. That's about as bold as I'll get

          I could definitely be wrong on this, but I'm gonna say Walker will be the better of those 4 (not counting Irving). That's about as bold as I'll get lol. I haven't seen any of Fredette this season and I've seen very limited amount of Selby and don't think I've seen any of Knight either.

                  None of these guy are really true PG prospects imo, guys that can score but I don't see them being great passers/defenders. I haven't seen much of Irving tho to see what he can really do.

                  I haven't watched a whole lot of Knight in UK this year but I went to see him play in HS last year and he has a very nice outside game.

                      The only one I've seen play is Jimmer Fredette. He's a great shooter, but I don't see him making it as a pure-PG in the NBA. He's fun to watch play, tho.

                          Irving is about as pure of a point guard as you can be.

                                  Knight has a long way to go as far as being a PG goes. He's a scorer first and is just now learning now to run a team. In high school he averaged 32 PPG and only 4 APG. He has tools and especially the brains to be an excellent PG, just needs to bring them all together. When I watch him play, I see a carbon copy of Jamal Crawford

                                      to me a player like kemba walker is a dime a dozen... he'll probably put up decent stats on a bad team at the next level but really i don't think he'll ever really do anything

                                          I think the biggest problem with this years pg prospects is a majority of them are small 2s. Irving has probably the best situation to improve being at Duke with Coach K and a good cast around him. Knight gets Calipari who's dribble drive system translates well to the NBA. Walker can flat out score but how well will he dictate an offense surounded by other scorers. Jimmer is an excellent college player but I don't think he can athletically translate to a good defender. Selby skills make me see more of a D Wade type then a pg.

                                                  Do you really see Fredette over those other guys with his athletic limitations. Besides Kemba he can probably outscore the others but what else are you gonna get from him?
