| 2012 NBA Draft Thread Fantastic draft. I think there are loads of good players. Quick rundown for me.
Lottery Bust: Dion Waiters
Lottery Steal: Jeremy Lamb
Non-Lottery Steal: Kendall Marshall
Potential all-stars: Anthony Davis, Brad Beal, MGK, Kendall Marshall, Andre Drummond, Jeremy Lamb

| | Wave yo hands in the aiya | This draft class utterly blows. The top guy is a Camby at best and the rest are all maybes. |

Anthony Davis is the next Kevin Garnett.

He's got a way to go, but with athleticism, wingspan, and his touch (he's got great touch for a big man) he can average 20 a game. Go look at Garnett's offensive stats the first couple years.
Garnett didn't average 20 till he was 22, and didn't shoot 50% from the field till he was 26.

| I think MKG will have the biggest impact out of anybody in this draft. |

There will be one high quality guy simply because of the law of averages, but I can't remember the last time I looked at a draft class and saw zero guys with serious all nba potential. |

This is the second time you've projected a pick to be a HOF player.
Like BPV said, he's Marcus Camby. Which is not really worthy of a number one pick.
Which means this class really, really sucks. |

| I don't think Waiters will be a bust
And he may not be a lottery pick |
