I meant to say it strongly, because that is how I feel. I have seen most of these guards play, and I do not want Curry at all. Evans also switched to point guard and his team went undefeated until late in the Big Dance. How did Curry's team do? Both Evans for sure and Lawson(somewhat argueably) are better players overall than Curry. Yes Curry can score in college, but I think he will struggle in the the NBA. Evans game will translate well to the NBA, much like Derrick Rose, whom he replaced at Memphis. Lawson, while undersized will bring floor leadership and toughness to an NBA team, that Curry will not. Just as an aside, as much as I love Derrick Rose's game, I still would have drafted Michael Beasley first, and I still think in the long run Beasley will prove to be the more valuable player. Even in a reserve role, and how much longer will that last, he is putting up pretty good numbers. He is the perfect complement to D. Wade.
[b]Iron: insane is such a strong term but it does show your passion. Equally passionately, I'd say anyone who prefers beasley over rose is also insane.
now back to steph curry. i also like evans alot but he can't shoot and of course evans led memphis to a great season. they have a stacked team and play tulsa and CCNY every game. And speaking of stacked teams carolina has 6 or 7 draftable players in the next 2 drafts. I could lead that team along way.
I do love passionate talk about the draft and where we should go so please respond in as "passionate" a manner as possible.
The difference is that Lawson was the best player on UNC and lead his team to the title. The best player on title teams is usually a good pro baring any injuries.
