    You don't think McCants will go in the first round?

    So much for your "guru" status.

    nope and neither do a lot of other people that I've read about while looking at it. He's a weak defender with an unbelievable shot. Problem is if he's defended on the arc he can't take the ball to the basket without trouble.

    I agree on McCants...He's good in the low post and has a nice outside shot but his handle is weak and his defense is worse. Felton will be a top 10 pick next year, IMO...His only weakness is the consistency of his jumper. He's a tenacious defender and his ball-handling is outstanding. May is a 4 year guy. Marvin Williams is a mystery...If he's as good as advertised then we can consider him one and done - if not, who knows!

    You must not be an insider. Roy specifically talked about Mccants having to work on his low post play, as thats his weakness. he turns the ball over and is inconsistant, so you're wrong there. His defense is weak, but they are working on both of those all summer.

    Felton is NOT top 10 pick. He gets crazy with the ball, and all he is, is a ball handler. His shot also is inconsistant. His defense isn't nothing to write home about either. this according to Roy, so wrong again.

    Felton will stay. He isn't that good to go, as of right now. Unless he just goes the fuck off, which I highly doubt.

    Just be thankful he didn't call him the next Shavlik.

    I guess Hansbrough cuts his own steak.

    Wow, according to Franchise I know nothing about UNC hoops...That's the first time I've ever been told that. McCants does have a nice low-post game for a guard, and Felton has a sick handle and plays on the ball defense very well. I stand by this. I never said McCants was Karl Malone in the post...Only that he's got a decent down-low game for a guard.

    McCants low post game is fine its the fact that he can't defend or take the ball to the basket. I've said it a million times now.
