I know for most of ya'll, its going to be Mello or LeBron but I have three different ones. Mo Williams, Lampe, and Josh Howard. Mo Williams, I love his game and I'm from Utah. He's the energetic one who dosen't care about minutes as long as he gets to play. He was a big surprise. Josh Howard, I really don't know how he end up that low. Nellie did a good job with trusting him and giving the defensive responsabilites to him. Lampe, He's just going to be a really good player. Next Dirk, but can bang with the big boys.
Dwayne Wade And Carmelo Anthony, they both showed amazing potential and grit. Both players lead their respective teams to the playoffs and it looks like Miami will be in the second round. IMO They Will Both Be Future All-Stars.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TheGameShutDown:</div><div class="quote_post">Ndubi Ebi...I guess the world just wasn't ready for him this year.</div> I've seen him play in a high school game. I forgot about him, he would of been my fav. player if he had played any. Is all right, he'll get his.
Darko Milicic baby. Greatest player in the history of the NBA. Besides the usual LeBron, Carmelo, Wade and Bosh type guys, I really like Marquis Daniels. He stepped up during the playoffs, and he has improved alot. Going from undrafted, to starting on a playoff team is very impressive. He can do a litte bit of everything. I think a few years, he will a big name in the league. Also, big fan of Kirk Hinrich. I didn't think he would have this type of impact so soon. Ndudi Ebi? Have you even seen the guy play?
I have been really impressed with Dwayne Wade exceeding my expectations. I honestly did not think a rookie like him would do so much especially with proven players like lamar odom and eddie jones along with caron butler. He has also been Another player that impressed me was Chris Bosh. He did not put up really big numbers and for two reaspns: 1. He is the 3rd or 4th option on the team 2. He is playing center against players 60-70 lbs. more than him He has also showed some exceptional range hitting threes
Wade is my favorite rookie this year, but I also like Carmelo a lot. I really love Wade's game though, he impresses me almost every game with something he does. Both of them along with LeBron have a very bright future ahead of them, and I look forward to watching them. I think Wade will be an all-star in two years, and Carmelo and LeBron probably next year.
Bosh. He leads all rookies in rebounds and blocks, he was also a small thin center. He can score in the post and he hardly missed a free-throw comming back from his injury. He's going to put on 10 or more pounds by next season too. I also like Lebron, this guy came out of high-school, and won rookie of the year and almost lead a team to the playoff. Wade and Carmello are also on of my favs, they can score easily.
i was most impressed with Dwayne Wade, he's going to be a superstar when Bosh develops a decent jump shot, he'll be a star too
Bosh's jumpshot is actually already pretty good, so I don't think that's his biggest need, more strenght, post moves is a big one, and more experience and hard work will get him where he needs to be. On his shot the thing I think he needs to work on is his release, it's too low and allows him to get blocked easier.
i would say it's a little above average, not great but he definately needs to improve it to become an upper-echelon player
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> Originally posted by TheGameShutDown Ndubi Ebi...I guess the world just wasn't ready for him this year.</div> I agree and his name is Ndudi Ebi. I thought my boy Ndudi Ebi was good, yes he didnt play much but he had 4blocks, 13points, 3assists, and 3rebounds in the season and only played 32 minutes the whole season. He wasnt the most impressive rookie but he made good use of the time he was given. LeBron James is superior the kid is 19 and has 20, 5, 5 already, what can't he do. Dwyane Wade was given the nickname this season 'Elevate' i think that describes him pretty darn well. Wade can score pass the rock and rebound for a small guy, forgot to mention he can fly. Carmelo Anthony is awesome he led his team to the playoffs that a really good turn around i think he should have been co-ROY. Bosh was amazing he's so small but does so much he reminds me a lot of KG.
I remember seeing him at the McD's AA game. He's got great attributes if he really is a small forward. If he strenghthens up and polishes those skills of his, a breakout season could be up-and-coming for him.
LeBron, Carmelo, Wade, Bosh, and Marquis Daniels. Marquis looks like he will have ice in his veins and hit big shots like Nick Van Excel. He's so calm in close game situations as we could see in their series against the Kings.
My favorite rookies though, are of course, LeBron, Carmelo and Dwyane. All three, are future SuperStars, if they aren't already.
Aside from the obvious choices (Bron and Melo), I really love Kirk's game. He looks like as if he can't play at all. He can score and pass. Now if only he'll be consistent....
