Who do you see staying in and who's going to "test the waters" but come back?

Let me look at the list and I'll make predictions next week.

I'l be looking for it then :salute:

Off the top of my head...I think all 3 UNC players are making a mistake if they stay in...with the exception being Lawson IF he has a great workout...

I also think Anderson from Memphis is making a mistake...but I also heard he was basically shown the door by Calipari...

Anyway...I look forward to your list

What the hell are you talking about with Anderson?

Yea, I haven't heard anything about Cal showing him the door.

Though if you think about it, Anderson will probably not play himself into a 1st round pick next year so he might as well go start making decent money overseas now. He will probably be back but we will see.

Anderson could certainly play himself into the first round. Pull up the debate this board had about Rajon Rondo.

Some are easy. Obviously, anyone who hired an agent is gone. Also, the obvious top 15 picks are gone. The interesting cases will be players like Joe Alexander, Bill Walker, Danny Green, and Mario Chalmers.

That's what I was thinking. Antonio's intensity with another year of development will move him into serious consideration for a high draft pick.

If Anderson improves his 3-pt shot and scores around, say, 10 per I think he can play himself into 1st round consideration. A guy who can shoot the three and plays perimeter D like that can be used very well at the next level.

Anderson shown the door? He is one of Cal's favorite players. Just because Cal encouraged him and Dozier to put their names in doesn't mean he is showing them the door. He just wants them to have a chance to workout and get their names out there for next year.

shooting the 3 is unlikely to ever be part of his game, but he's could easily be the next generation's Bruce Bowen.

Okay...maybe I was wrong about the "showing the door" comment...I just heard it on one of those sports talk shows on ESPN...it might have been Around the Horn or Pardon the Interuption...I can't remember...

But whatever it was they were definitely saying it seemed Calipari was encouraging his current players to go on so he could start something new...like he was tired of what he had...

Maybe it was just stupidity on their part...and mine for listening to it...

With the lock down Defense AA plays, I wouldn't think Cal would want AA to leave. The only place AA would go is to the NBA, but that would be next year.

As much as I would love to see it, I can't see Anderson being a high draft pick. "Maybe" a 25-30 pick but I think even that is a reach.

All Antonio needs to do is work on his offense a little bit more, and he could easily be a top 20 pick. Maybe even a lottery pick.

I know next year is a different draft but after seeing CDR fall like he did, it only reaffirms my feelings that Anderson will not be a 1st round pick. At the absolute most late 20's.

The main reason CDR fell was because of his pathetic workouts, IIRC. If Antonio has good workouts, he could very well get into the first round.

I guess I didn't phrase that very well. I meant that I don't think he will go in the first round but if he does, 28-30 at best. I just don't see the latter happening.

I have heard GM's and scouts say that the workouts only account for about 10-15% of their total evaluation. The season accounts for a lot more of that total. With that being said, I still don't know how he dropped that far. I did hear that he had horrible workouts though. Oh well, with RJ leaving, hopefully that will give him a lot more PT and chances.
