Demarcus Cousins is the most dominating player in college basketball. I don't think second place is very close. He forces a double and triple team every time down the court and he is a tough low post defender. Kentucky has two of the best players in college basketball--you usually don't see that--I can easily see both guys going in the top 3. I think I read somewhere that Cousins had the best PER in the last 8 years.

Pfft...this is not the Big East we are talking here and it ain't football. Try to see past the numbers a bit there Briggs. The SEC has 3 teams in the rpi top fifty. And far more than that under a hundred. What games were you basing this all world status on?

Evan Turner raises the level of the players around him...and has awesome athletic skills himself. Compare the record when he was injured earlier this year to where they are now.

Favors averages a double double too.

Bill Simmons on Tyreke Evans "The prototypical 0-guard: Someone who handles the ball all the time, looks for his own shot, gets to the rim at will and operates best if his teammates spread the floor to watch him."

i've seen a few KEN games this season & i don't think Cousins is as dominating a player as BRIGGS says, but he's definitely got the potential to be a dominant player at the NBA level... he loves to bang & he's a very physical presence down low... he makes the guys trying to guard him seem small in comparison... he has a ways to go to develop his post game & no way is he the best player on that KEN team, it's John Wall by a pretty wide margin, but he's easily going to be a top 5 pick in this draft IMHO.

Fredette looked pretty good tonight--we couldve used him.

John Wall saved Kentucky's ass tonight... Demarcus Cousins was invisible in the 1st half & the Wildcats were about to get blown out by Alabama & he single handedly willed his team back into the game... if there's any doubt why this kid is going to go #1, he showed u why tonight... this kid makes the Wildcats go.

Wall is going to go number one because of his potential and how can you pass that up... but I think whoever get the second pick will be lucky. Based off of what I've seen in previous seasons with Evan Turner, he's going to be one hell of an NBA player.

This year's Tyreke Evans is Evan Turner, not John Wall. He'll be able to play and excel at multiple positions. He's the guy I'd want most in this draft class

this year's Tyreke Evans maybe Evan Turner, but i have a feeling this year's Derrick Rose will be John Wall... i don't see how u can go wrong w/either of these guys.

btw BRIGGS, Jimmer Fredette had another nice game, 30 pts. vs UNLV... dude's got some serious range on that J.

If Utah gets a top two pick I'll put my head through my keyboard/desk

Wall, Turner, Johnson, Cousins, Favors, Whiteside, Aminu, Monroe, Patterson should all be available for Utah to pick from... how can u possibly go wrong w/any of those guys? our only hope is that Utah goes with Motiejunas & he ends up being a bust with stiff legs.

He only played well the first 6-7 minutes than over compensated because Tyler Haws was out and they just didnt have enough O. That being said Im as high on Fredette as I was on S Curry--thats how good I think he is---hes more powerful and has just as good as a shot. Remember how many people thought steph curry was an under sized shooting G and was mocked 2nd round and ended up a high lottery guy. I love this kid--this guy is the perfect long term solution at PG.
