    All the Carolina players should reconsider leaving early after the way they are playing against Kansas.

    Unless they have a monumental 2nd half everyones stock has dropped on the team. They all look like garbage but that is what the NBA is all about so maybe it won't hurt them that much after all.

    Call me crazy if you want but i don't think that if Lawson not going to be back next year that he will a top 20 pick in the draft.If that the case he should just come back

    Well, if you declare early for the National Garbage Association and it isn't a foregone conclusion that you are going in the lottery then you should come back and improve and mature.

    Whatever. I'm done with the arguing. If you have a point or an opinion, then make it. If not, then STFU.

    Big three will return

    I have to agree that if you aren't a lottery pick (or close) you should returnfor another year, but I can't be mad at anyone that chooses making money for themselves versus making it for the universities. Tyler is the only one close to being a lottery pick and I'm not sure he will be, so I think he'll return. I realize that his stock was higher than ever (before the KU game), but he just seems like the kind of kid that ends up playing all 4 years at the college level. In regards to Ty and Wayne, I just can't see either of them leaving based on where they would be drafted. Neither are close to being a lottery pick and stand to improve their overall stock tremendously by returning for their junior season versus rolling the dice in leaving early.

    Now its time to get ready for the draft...about 21 days and counting!

    I was a big proponent of Lawson coming out LAST year (some for selfish reasons obviously) but I was a big fan of his game, especially in how it translated to the NBA. I think coming out now would be a mistake for him, as his stock is probably at a low. I doubt he'd fall all the way to 20+ but I could definitely see him dropping to 13 without looking at the board.

    I'd hate to lose Gerald Henderson, if he was a legit 6'7 he'd be gone in a heartbeat, but at 6'4 he may not have the nba SF body they are looking for. Another year in college improving his outside shot could do wonders for his game and convince the NBA that he could play SG.

    Hansbrough will stay and I don't think his draft position will get any higher, should also go between 13-20. I just think he'll stick around for his senior year, and unfortunately I bet Lawson will (for his junior) as well.

    I can't imagine Ellington going pro this year even though his stock is definitely rising. He's not a top 20 pick imo.



    As for the Bobcats, our lineup would be SICK with either Kevin Love or Roy Hibbert manning the Center position.

    Hard to say if Love could play center or not in the NBA, isn't he just 6'9"? Not sold on Hibbert at the next level, he disappears too much at the college level.

    How the fuck do you know Hasbro isn't interested in the NBA?

    so you're on a first-name basis with the Tarheel basketball team? what a pole-smoker. You'd drop to your knees if Tyler or Ty or Wayne issued the command.
