    I dont know about that and with ESPN being the big hype machine they are, thats bad news for Wall. He is gonna have unnecessary hype surrounding him.

    He'll be up there with Rose, Paul, Williams, Rondo & Parker. Definately not on Howard or Bron level

    nah, he is good, maybe great, but he is going to come out of the gates somewhere between Evans and Rose. He basically has Tyreke's game but finishes stronger at the rim. Great player though.

    U cant blame them though, now that ? T is out of the NCAA, they need another ? to suck on.

    Why can't he be a game changer out of the gate? I've watcher every UK game and he can do it all. If a team like the Pacers get him next year, he can have a big impact on them. Not as big as Brons rookie year, but bigger than Howards.

    I seen one of his games. Dude is nice but coming into the league as a game changing PG is one of the hardest things to do. Plus they were saying he's rondo cp3 lebron type fast, is that true cuz I haven't seen it.

    Yea, his coast to coast is crazy. Imagine rondo's quickness, only if he was 6'4 and about 20 pounds heavier

    umm kevin martin is 6'7 around 190 fam. I think people forget how tall dude is. And wall can do it all... mayo was a sg playing pg... his biggest strength is being able to come off screens and shoot jumpers. Wall is quick, athletic, his shot is improving and he can get his team involved. He also has a nose for the bal on dl. Montae is a scoring pg, martin is a sg, and mayo is a sg. Wall is in a different class(not skill wise just hes going to be a pure pg), dude is quick as hell he just doesn't look as quick because of his size. I think he can have an immediate impact on the game. ? always bring up lebron, we might not ever see a player who has the immediate impact on the game that bron did so your not saying anything by saying he won't "do what lebron did", yea him and every other rookie that comes through for the next 20 years.

    CP3 did turn around the Hornets in his first year. They went from 18 wins to 38 in a tough western conference. His next year he battled injuries, but the year after that they won 56 games. Like I mentioned earlier, if he somehow gets drafted by the Pacers, he turns that team into a fringe playoff contender.

    yeah there's only so much you can do when your owner keeps making ? deals and giving away all your players for nothing. I think Wall could be a team changer cuz he can make average players look like all stars with his skill set. Look at what CP3 did for Tyson Chandler and soft ass David West. With CP3 out of the line up that whole team is garbage.

    But u know ESPN is gonna be on his nuts now that Tebow is leaving Florida.

    LOL, i wont go that far, But EVAN TURNER is a baller. Too bad he got injured, he was balling big time before then. He is mos def a top 5 pick in the next NBA draft.

    Dont act like Eric Bledose and Demarcus cousin and pat patterson aint 5 star talent ? bledsoe was ranked number 3 in pg before accepting to ku. they got good supporting cast this team would of been better on memphis.
