3rd parade down Biscayne Blvd!
The more I watch Stanford play, the less receptive I become to the notion of drafting Brook Lopez (should we get screwed by the ping pong balls).
He doesn't shoot a good percentage for a big man (.467%) and doesn't finish consistently around the rim. His brother has been outplaying him lately. Robin is a better defender and his offensive game has been blossoming.
As for Michael Beasley, I like his offense but today he was worked on defensively by bigger and stronger Wisconsin big men. Luckily in the East, KG and CB4 are the only legitimate star power forwards but against the West he'd be exposed. I hope we draft Derrick Rose, he's the only guy out of this class who has keeped me impressed the whole time. The rest of the guards are combos, the last thing we need.
edit: LOL, just after I make this Brook Lopez has a monster second half and sinks the game winner on a turn-around shot.
