    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Nets Rookie Sean WIlliams went into the T-Moblie Rookie-Sophomore Game as the player who almost has a grassroots hype to him. He doesn't get talked about a lot and then when all are watching you can't help but notice what he does. His athleticism is so freaky that he just stands out in a crowd. And he did that tonight.

    Williams finished with a 17 point, 10 rebound double-double. He was 8 of 11 in 19 minutes. How about the way he led the break too? A few times he dribbled the ball up the court in transition. Some times he attempted some crazy between-the-legs moves but the best was when he grabbed the rebound, dribbled the ball down the court, and in a crowd threw the ball off of the backboard to himself for a jam. He was the third leading rookie scorer, behind Kevin Durant's 23 and Al Horford's 19. He led everyone in rebounds</div>

    6 years in a row the sophomores have beaten the rookies...but given the depth, and balance of the elite in this years draft class I firmly believe next year the rookies win the game.

    PG: Derrick Rose, DJ Augustin
    SG: OJ Mayo, Eric Gordon
    SF: Donte Green,
    PF: Michael Beasley, Tyler Hansborough
    C: Brooks Lopez, Roy Hibbert

    much better than

    PG: Mike Conley, JC Navarro
    SG: Kevin Durant
    SF: Jeff Green, Jamario Moon
    PF: Yi Jianlian, Sean Williams
    C: Greg Oden, Al Horford

    I think the rookies will take it.

    The rookies had a talented team, probably just as talented as the sophmores. The rookies lose because they don't play defense or play as a team.

    I think Oden has to play for the Rookies next all star game since he didn't actually play in the NBA this year.

    there is a reason why sophs take over rooks in six straight. a year of nba experience under their belts makes a difference imo.
