Carl Freeking Landry. He just keeps getting better. By next season he should be at 25 PPG, 60% FG, 90% FT. What a find for Houston. Seriously, Blake Griffin is a beast. If his knees don't hold him down he'll be an All Star multiple times over. Where have I heard that before? Evans needs to shoot better from the perimeter to be an "Elite" guy, but he'll be an All Star too. Durrant is going to play in his share of All Star Games for sure, maybe win an MVP - dude is 21 years old (before you criticize his defense and other less refined areas of his game) At 24 years old, Chris Paul will be lethal for years to come, same with Dwight Howard. Geez, those two may still get BETTER! Don't sleep on Brook Lopez either. 19/10/2 are good on ANY team, especially for a 21 year old Center - take a look at the crap him & D. Harris play with.
I already consider some of those players stars like Durant, Paul and Howard. Carl Landry seems like one of those players who will always be a huge help to his team but I just am not sure if he has that "star quality" that gets the recognition. I guess the same could be said for Roy, and he is a star, but I think Landry will have to really kill over a long period of time to ever get the kind of star rep that other stars in the league get. I am not saying he is any less of a player, just that he may not get the recognition he deserves.
Um, yeah I wasn't serious about Landry. Although he is clearly better than anyone outside of Houston thought.
