    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Look closely, because this may have been your last look at Leon Powe in a Cal uniform.

    His last name rhymes with ``show'' but will probably rhyme with ``pro'' now that the Bears have been eliminated from the NCAA tournament.
    Although there's no doubt Powe could use more seasoning at the college level, he has to be worried about his multiple knee injuries and the stress fracture in his foot from earlier this season.

    Forget about the talk that nobody knows Powe on a national level. NBA scouts know him. Powe has averaged 20.7 points and 10 rebounds a game this season -- one of only three players in Division I to do so. Those kinds of numbers don't fly under the radar.

    The legitimate concern is about Powe's height (he's listed as 6-foot-8). But NBA teams are always desperate for a low-post scorer with Powe's ability.</div>
