Default Beasley
Beasley is just a great college b-ball player. He is just man-handling Kansas. Although I do not like college b-ball, he is one player I enjoy watching.

Number one pick in the draft imo.

With the way he has been playing he might be the player of the year. And I agree, the #1 pick in the NBA.

Who is then?
Who have you seen that is better?
I have seen no one.

I really like the PG on Memphis also.

I would rather have Eric Gordon from IU, who is also a freshman.



I was thinking of more, but I guess the draft would go Gordon then Beasley. Weak year, with all the top players pretty much college freshman.

Derrick Rose is an awesome freshman from Memphis, top 3 picks in this years draft will probably be them 3 freshman. Plus, Notre Dame's basketball team got embarrassed by Marquette and G'Town, and ND was able to contain Beasley.

Texas A&M also has a 7 foot tall freshman who could go before Beasley, got to wait and see how the season finishes out.

Not near as refined as Beasely right now.
Not even close. He was just benched 3 games.
Playing well right now against a tiny Texas team though.

Beasely #1.

And this years draft will be exceptionally deep from
what I have seen so far.

The entire draft is underclassmen, with the top Senior being Roy Hibbert. I guess the NBA draft is always full of underclassmen, but this draft is nothing special.

Two top draft picks last year were frosh.
This will be the trend my friend.

No way does Gordon go 1st in the NBA draft. 6'4 guards are a dime a dozen in the nba. Beasley is 6'9 and can play inside and outside. Power forwards are much more useful in the NBA than 6'4 shooting guards.

Beasley is a clearer #1 this year than Oden and Durant were for the top two last year. The kid is the real deal. Unlike Durant, he actually has an inside game too.
