How good do you think this draft is? In 5 years or so, when we look back at this draft, will see a lot of superstars or a lot of busts? Will we see some sleepers that not many people though would do good? Will it look anything like to 2003 draft?Me? I think this draft is pretty deep. Oden and Durant top it off, seeming to be automatic superstars in the NBA. Then there are many players behind them that look like they have serious potential to turn into stars. This is definatly an upgrade over last season's draft.Opinions?
Its pretty clear we got atleast two stars(probably superstars) but Wrights, Brewer, Yi Jianlian, Julian Wright...you can go on and on...these players can become stars. Then we got players like Thadeuss Young and Marcus Williams who might drop below the 15th pick, which if you look at their talent, and where they are projected to be picked, it doesn't seem right. This draft is defiently deep...and its because of the highschool rule(reason on weak draft last year). I think this draft can be very good...but then again it can be a bust mania.
This draft is deep in the sense that there are a lot of 2 and 3 positional players that have a chance to be good...I think after the first 3 picks, its a toss up as to who will be good and who wont be though...I dont believe all the hype

well stern nearly double stacked it with the rule change about HS players being eligble.that and the Gators coming back for 1 more year.like you initally said, we'll have to wait 5 years to really have a decision about it.IMO it will be one of the best ever barring career altering injuries to the top players.If say Oden and Durant have Grant Hill, Danny Manning like careers, then it'll be a disappointing draft.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>This is definatly an upgrade over last season's draft</div>well last season's draft was awful
I think this draft has the potential to be one of the top 5 of all time.Oden and Durant are obviously instant superstars. The Florida players and Mike Conley will be instant contributers. Wright, Young, Marcus Williams, Hawes, Jason Smith all have tremendous potential. And if the international players pan out, this draft is going to be amazing
