    While Southern California's O.J. Mayo and Kansas State's Michael Beasley are more familiar to the casual fan, Derrick Rose is well known within basketball circles, especially in the NBA.

    "There is no question he would be a top-10 pick in the draft," said one NBA executive who requested anonymity.

    The 19-year-old Chicago native can be compared to Deron Williams, the highly regarded third-year point guard for the Utah Jazz.

    "I think Derrick will be a better shooter than Williams and is quicker," one scout said. -- Philadelphia Inquirer</div>

    I can't remember the last time it was in question that he would be a top 10 pick in any draft he entered.

    He's a better prospect than any PG in the 05 draft imo.
