The Craft of Draft

What be goin down hoops buffs, and all you others who just want to check in with some convo about the naismith masterpiece we cal b-ball. I coould tell you aboout a lot of insights into the up coming draft and analyze who can do what and whose good for what team, however, i really don't see a whole lot of promising franchise players with the exception of the first seven or eight picks probably ensuring a first four seasons of twenty-ten stats perhaps and a descent run in the playoffs. Instead, lets talk about franchise teams rebuilding and there potential and/or likeliness to rebuild, as well as what made fans come back to fill the seats as well as the avid couch admirerers. I'll tell you one thing about John Wall. His game reminds me so much of Kenny Anderson of the New Jersey nets way back in the day of 1990-91. Kenny was able to make the all-star team after his second season, and though he didn't come up in the clutch big like he did in college, the dude still made siome impressively big shots with the nets in his early yesr with them. So, the question that seems to be a common one with much of the media at this time, is John Wall going to be like a a steve nash who can almost immediately make a team a formidable force, end up selling out after a season or two, or maybe end up like a moderately yet rawly well talented star like Kenny was. I don't have a basketball crystal ball. Many players have done amazing things in college, yet when they get in the big leagues they often don't continue their legacy to the level prior to their entrance. Some get distracted and seem to loose poise with the glitter and glamour. Others can't seem to handle the pressure to an extent, or atleast it seems that way to some. Many get disgruntled over money. I am asking all of you readers, as few as there may currently be., what do you think are the biggest reasons for players unable to carry on the legacy of their college days and why? What is the most common reason and why? Your responses can open up doors to future potential stars who may(by some wild chance) read this!
Peace out..........and too all you fans and some of you players, or both, please don't eat too much cheese before the big game....but hey, i write a basketball blog during a defense based nba dynasty, im bored out of my mind...its hard, but aint easy bein' cheezy..............


As scatterbrained as i am i didn't mention the franchise teams!... Bulls had some playoff success over the years, with somewhat of a 90's knicks defense based game. hey, whatever works. is it fun to watch? Not for me. Lakers and Celts have the reunion of a eternal rivalry, but no, besides kobe and maybe kevin, who was a tad nonexistent to me in the finals add some perks for the superstar whose hungry for action. the game has changed. . a lot of going left with little faking, attempts at trying to make the wilts out of guys like gasol. You may wonder, any other franchise ball clubs??? Well, the pistons of course... Prince has leadership qualities. They may find someone who can play a good supporting role for him and some of the vets in the late first round. I'll be more precise with the purpose of my article next time... Will that get you to actually log on to it again?
