Out of these 3 who would you pick if you had the choice of these 3 for Pro Ball.
And none of that it depends on the system crap. Who you want on your team in Game 7 of the Finals in the NBA.
Strengths
Favors - Ridiculous Athleticism for a guy 6'10 240. Absolute Beast on the Boards. Could potentially dominant the game on the boards how Howard is doing it inside. Just a little smaller than Dwight. Shooting over 60 percent from the field. That's unheard of almost
Cousins - An absolute beast. Great all around game, good in the post, good defensively, tough Physical. Only downfall is maturity, can he put the mental aspect of the game to go with the Physical part of the game.
Monroe- A 6'10 240 pound Point Power Forward. Can rebound and have off the ball shot blocking as well. Runs the floor well, Passes the ball EXTREMELY Well, decent shooter with Upside. Downfall, is he soft ? Can he bang down low with the big guys in the NBA ?

I'll go with Monroe. Parts of his game remind me a lot of Lamar Odom.

I think Cousins is the most talented but I would draft Monroe
Posted on 3/16/10 at 11:25 pm to MrWiseGuy
cousins is the one i've seen in person, i was front row for the game
he has an absolutely undefendable baseline spin move
i'd go cousins

1. Monroe
2. Favors
3. Cousins (saw a comparison to Eddy Curry and Derrick Coleman on nbadraft.net. Both guys ended up being notoriously lazy. Coleman could've been special. Cousins can be too. I just have a feeling that Cousins will derail himself)

I love pat as well
he's really stretched his game with his mid-range/outside shooting ability to go along with his inside game

Ok let's break it down lester...
patterson can shoot the mid-range jumper and is strong inside. he's quick enough to play the 4 in the NBA.
cousins is strong inside but very slow. also, he has the maturity of a 2 year old. he's in for a rude awakening in the NBA. also, he's not consistent shooting mid-range jumpers.
john wall is quick and can handle the ball but will get destroyed by taller/stronger NBA PGs. add the fact that he isn't a great shooter and my my point is proven.

You act like every PG in the league is Magic Johnson. What the frick are you talking about?

cousins is not explosive to the basket. he's not big enough to play like shaq, therefore he needs to have a faster burst to the basket.
odom, KG, josh smith, drik, rashard lewis, etc...

I absolutely love Patterson, but to say that he is the most NBA ready player on UK's team...I just don't see it. I really don't think that his game is going to translate to the NBA. I hope it does, but I just don't see it.

You said that Wall would get destroyed by taller and stronger PGs. Of the above, the only guys that are stronger and taller may be Evans and Williams.
