    It seems like big men are about the only guys who can be accurately rated as high schoolers.

    I would agree...especially if my teammates were correct in saying Jennings is overrated!

    Agreed. But I've read more than one article about how wrong the perception is that Carolina and Duke can't just go out and pick from the best. They have to work for it just like everyone else. For some reason it's now big news about the ones that are 'getting away'.

    Brandon Jennings was defintely outplayed by Courtney Fortson from Patterson prep. Fortson is ranked around 75 and commited to Arkansas, but its hard to judge a player on 1 game. im sure Fortson was pumped to go against Jennings.

    Nolan Smith is more of a SG than a point, and Singler is a Small Forward having to play PF, and because K "likes to run" Thomas will probably the Center and he was considered a Small Forward/Power Forward, and not a PF/C.

    Like I said 2-2-2-3-3

    The only reason Nolan played SG is because he played with Lawson and Jennings. He is being groomed to be the point. From what I hear he may push Paulus to SG sooner than anyone thinks.
