September 15, 200917 yr Author I don't buy the comparative height stuff. You also don't have to deal with figuring out how tall a kid really is against their listed height on a regular basis. Either way the guy best suited to open up things for Patterson is Orton. He's getting overlooked big time going into this season...

Either way the guy best suited to open up things for Patterson is Orton. He's getting overlooked big time going into this season... Nope but that doesn't mean that I'm not darn good at it. And I agree about Orton. He busted his tail this offseason in San Fran, and I think it's going to pay bigtime dividends for him...
September 15, 200917 yr I think he nails the top 2. Then he messes up. Mason-Griffin? Are you kidding me? I am not that impressed with him at all. I would actually move Avery Bradley up to 3rd. I think he will have a big year.
September 15, 200917 yr Based on what??? I seen him play a high school game and also in the McDonald's All American game. He wasn't impressive in either. At the same time I could have probably phrased it better. Hes a pretty good guard, but when you compare him to a lot of other players I just don't think he stacks up well with them.

You are killing me with the "I watched this guy once and know his game" line you continue to to throw out there. Let it go. Please...
September 15, 200917 yr I'd love for it to be true, but I don't see Bledsoe as one of the top 11 freshmen in the country....
September 15, 200917 yr I'd love for it to be true, but I don't see Bledsoe as one of the top 11 freshmen in the country.... Bledsoe has been outperforming Wall so far in practices and scrimmages. No one has been able to stop the guy, not even Wall. Whether or notoo he is one of the top 11 freshman in the nation is debatable but he does deserve to be on this list.
September 15, 200917 yr I disagree with most of the list, so not sure how much faith I put in the writer... As do I. No Xavier Henry on this list is ridiculous.
September 15, 200917 yr I agree with GT on Orton. I saw him the other day and asked him how much weight he had lost and he said 15 pounds, looks more like 30. Should really help his mobility and he is a physical specimen.
September 15, 200917 yr You are killing me with the "I watched this guy once and know his game" line you continue to to throw out there. Let it go. Please... I have watched him play an entire game twice and have watched him on internet clips. Based on what I have saw I don't think hes going to be near the player a lot of other players will be this year in this class. You are killing me by thinking that you are an expert on basketball, but I try to leave you alone. :thumb: :lol: If he has a huge year and is 1st or even 2nd team all freshman I will eat crow and say I was wrong. Will you do the same if he is not? Or do you agree with me?

I don't think TMG will be top 10 in this class because Willie will do a lot of dominating the ball, but he will be very solid for a young guard. And I just call it like it is. If you think you can evaluate someones game by watching one or two games ( one being an All Star game) and some youtube clips, the joke is on you. You could, however, work for Van Coleman who is one of the worst in the scouting business...
September 15, 200917 yr You can take my word for it I see Demarcus and Orton ever Monday and Wednesday and the one time I saw Patterson he doesn't compare. Orton and Cousins are towers compared to Patterson.

It doesn't take watching a guy 10 times to see that I don't think he is talented as a guy like Avery Bradley for example. Like I said if he proves me wrong I will admit it.
