2) I'm backing TennNC in the Jay Williams debate. History backs us up. Here goes.
Points guards drafted in the top ten over the last ten years:
2008: Derrick Rose; Russell Westbrook; DJ Augustin (OJ Mayo listed as SG)
2007: Mike Conley
2006: Brandon Roy; Randy Foye
2005: Deron Williams; Chris Paul; Raymond Felton
2004: Ben Gordon; Shaun Livingston; Devin Harris
2003: Kirk Hinrich; TJ Ford
2002: Jay Williams; Dajuan Wagner
2001: None
2000: Jamal Crawford
1999: Steve Francis; Baron Davis; Andre Miller; Jason Terry
1998: Mike Bibby; Jason Williams
The NBA scouts are obviously pretty good at sizing up point guards and tweener shooting guards -- way more often than not, they get it right. The NBA scouts thought highly enough of Jay Williams to draft him #2 overall. Thus, it is way more likely that Jay Williams would have been a very good NBA point guard than a bust.
That's my conclusion. Feel free to form your own. Or if you're BPV or JZV, wait until Hat forms an opinion of his own, and then simply restate that opinion. |
How many of those guys are you saying are very good NBA point guards?
