    I just took a look on the 2003 Mock Draft by insidhoops.com staff

    and I wondered about Nick Collison

    they put him in the 19th pick !!!!!

    The guy has been chosen to the 2004 National Team !!!
    he has done a great job in the NCAA,

    at least the games i watched for Kansas

    how could he be in the 19th pick..?
    he's a top ten pick or even Top 5

    nick has performed poorly in the workouts. he doesn't have strength and is being outplayed by a lot of the other players entering the draft. his draft stock is plummeting. it looks like his best years are already behind him in college. he just doesn't have the physical abilities to compete in the nba.

    i read that both Collison and Hinrich's stock increased. i can't trust any of this draft info i read. i didn't expect him to be placed too high anyways. i don't expect his game to get any better.

    hes actually a good player, the whole point about the summer before the season starts is to develope, it will take him about a year. Do you know many people that were absolute powerhouses comming into the league (excluding shaq and duncan). The university of Kansas weight room isn't located near the basketball practice area and they have little time to lift weights. Hes been in the gym a lot lately, this guy will be stronger... Hes also got crazy endurance and great rebounding skills...it will take time for him to get stronger...

    yea, if he could get 20+ rebounds in a college game, he could probably get 10 (iono about averaging 10) but he should be a very solid rebounder

    yeah, i don't think he will be anything special, just a good solid pf/c.
