    Perry Jones hype fell way before this tournament. The guy I've been impressed with from Baylor has been Quincy Acy. He's a load.

    Henson has a long way to go. He looks skinner than LMA did when he was at Seagoville.

    I really like Tyler Zeller.

    He has that Joakim type of motor.

    I don't know about Cody. He has a really weird build:

    6'11.5"
    6'8" wingspan

    His footwork is a thing of beauty. I could see McHale trying to get his hands on him in the draft.

    I don't see Zeller translating well into the NBA.

    Henson has won me over a bit lately. His jumper is looking good and hes an elite shotblocker. He certainly needs to bulk up a lot, but not a bad prospect. I think hes put up much better rebounding and shotblocking numbers than Brandon Wright and Ed Davis.

    Just finishing this Florida v Loiusville game. This Beal kid looks pretty good.

    I like Beal. His stock has risen like my chubby's when I see your wife :)

    Sullinger won't be a star ... but I think he's going to be a very effective player for somebody.

    Sullinger could be like an Elton Brand type of player.

    He made a bad choice by returning for his Soph. season -- he would have been a top-5 pick last year.

    He really wants an NCAA title, he may even return next year.

    Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

    More like an Al Jefferson/Z-Bo type in that he uses girth as opposed to athleticism to score. Also slow of foot and poor hops will limit his defense.

    I bet he still goes top 5.

    MKG is fantastic today.

    Has any projected lottery pick fallen more than Perry Jones? His tournament performance has been bad.

    Re: 2012 NBA Draft Prospects

    Beal is my favorite option for this Blazer team. He does a little bit of everything. I think he could be a long term replacement of Brandon Roy at the 2 spot with his ability to pull up a jump shot or penetrate, his only downside is his size as an NBA SG.

    Listening to game on radio. Who would you compare MKG to? A young stackhouse?

    I think MKG is more skilled than both.
