    Maybe y'all can draft Lance Stephenson from Lincoln High School in two years and get another underachieving headcase like Telfair.

    Anderson was my favorite player for years. Cool to see him at number one.

    Can't forget Omar Cook and Erick Barkley on that list of former NYC high school studs.

    I loved Kenny too when he was here for those 1.5 years. One of my top five all-time Blazers even. Good character guy, clutch player and just played the game the right way.

    I've come to the conclusion I hate NYC point guards. Very few really encapsulate what a great PG does. Instead, they're all about making the flashy pass or crossover dribble.

    And other than Cousy, there isn't a PG on that list that could be considered an irreplacable cog on a championship team.
