In points scored after 6 years Hill is only surpassed by three players. He was 27 when he got injured actually the best years of his carer so I would say that he did fell short. No one knows what he would achieve with a rising star in TMac by his side. I do not know if it would work but if nothing else it would be an interesting duo.
Senatore what is the overall strength of this years draft? I imagine it is rated somewhere the same as last year but lower then 2008,2009 but I didn´t really follow this year.
Is there a chance of another really strong draft (like Lebron, Wade,Anthony) in the coming years?
Its a crappy draft in sense I doubt there are any allstar talents. Certainly no rose or durant or blake griffins. I doubt any westbrook, klove talents either
I mean jonas vaskeuitreorfhdjkwhatever will be 4th pick and IMO might be most intriguing player. You'd know him better.
Kyrie and derrick williams are top americans. Both will be good. Kyries a natural pg. Some think he could be paul or deron but that's awfully lofty for a guy who played just 7 games (albiet because of an injury). Williams is kind of a tweener. I like him but he's somewhere in realm of jamison, beasley, josh smith. You know oslid player but not lebron/durant or bosh/amare etc.
Kanter the turkish center is also intriguing but he also sat a year out so I am not sure.
Rest of top 15 I mean there r good players just not stars.... vesely, jimmer, kemba, burks, klay thompson, marcus morris etc.
Actually I like klay thompson as a sleeper. 6ft7 shooting guard. Can shoot lights out. Comes of screens well, very intelligent. Not super athletic. Jerry west likes him. Some scouts have said he's got a bit of reggie miller to him BUT at same time could just as easily be another mike miller, marco belinelli etc
All and all don't expect any real difference makers. 2012 on otherhand will be stacked like 200e or 2007
Edit: klay is mychael thompson's son. Former laker
