    I only got to watch ford in the tournament..they never show college games in Canada
    I have to base my opinion completely on what I read on the internet, and most places have guys ahead of him.
    Watching Kidd makes you really appreciate what a true, passfirst point can do...I still like the russian guy though

    gotta choose bosh, i think. he has the best potential and u can't pass on his talent, IMO. i would find it hard to believe that he won't go 4th.

    That pavel guy is just another Gheorge Muersean kind player...he can't run....he won't be a good pick at all...would be a mistake if he is picked in the top 10

    thats true, i cant see him being great.


    I wish the raps could chose Dwayne Wade or Chris Kaman. The only two players that would be of use to us.

    i don't really see how wade would be that valuable to u, u should let him drop to #15, where he'll be valuable to the magic [​IMG]

    Pavel is nothing like Muresan. He moves like Yao does. I have no idea if he has skills, but he's nothing like Muresan

    they are just comparing skills and height, it's hard for someone that tall to be skillful, yao is just a freak of nature. he is still growing also. i've never seen him play, but the only thing i've really heard was he was like muresan.

    These are some quotes from another poster on Pavel's workout in front of GMs. These are GMs talking, not lame ass reporters.
    "I don't believe what I just saw, thats the most potent combination of size, strength and agility I've seen since Shaq."
    "I was a skeptic when I read all the reports...I thought things were getting out of hand with Pavel. I'm converted now. Thats one amazing prospect right there"
    "What does Yao do that he doesn't? Yao's feel for the game at this point is much better, but from a physical standpoint, he's more explosive."
    "If I'm Carmello Anthony I'm sweating right now. Based on potential, he's right up there with Lebron and Darko."
    An international scout said "People in the NBA don't remember Sabonis when he was young. They only remember the slow version. Pavel seems to have all those same skills at the enormous size. If he develops a real feel for the game, you will see him dominate the game for the next 15 years."

    I realize it's hype, but those are GM"s talking. Not reporters.

    (sorry if I am not supposed to post quotes and stuff. Just delete it if you like and I wont do it again. I am kind of new here)

    I think Kaman did bad in workouts when he wasn't playing against anyone.
    Of course he wont look good, he's not the type that would do good running drills..I want to see him in a game against guys his own size. I still cant see Glen taking him at 4 though

    you have to take these reports lightly. a lot of times scouts will hype a guy up and down play another player hoping the player they really want slips.

    those are GM quotes, not scouts...
    I get your point about stategy and all but comparing the guy to Muresan is stupid.

    Carmelo might be available at #4 now cuz Pavels stock is really rising....that would be great to get another scorer to help out VC
