This guy is easily the best player going into the draft.(minus Davis) I want this guy if we get the #2 pick. Guy has a motor, can score, rebounds, and plays defense well.

How is he not easily being named the second best player in the draft?

I've always had him right behind Davis...I would be happy with either

I just don't feel like Robinson would be able to give us anything besides consistent rebounds and intangibles. I don't think he'd be a legitimate option scoring or defending.

Same here. I'd be pumped with either.

he's got a really good jump shot and is pretty good off the dribble

I don't see him as a 20+ppg guy, but I can definitely see him become a consistent 15 and 10 guy

He's very athletic and determined. Maybe it's because he's playing with college teammates, but his game doesn't look overly impressive.

He is a force down low. And the only reason he isnt dominating more is because he is being fronted in the post and has a guy in help side watching him. (basically being double teamed without actually being double teamed)

i don't even think he's THAT athletic

he looks highly skilled facing up (both with his jumper and in the pick/roll game)

he's an NBA player playing the shitty college game

He certainly is good, but the dropoff from Davis to him is huge. I think he is in a group of 5-6 or so that are pretty close (with him maybe being slightly in the lead of that group).

As a die hard Kansas fan, I've seen every KU game this year. Actually went to 3 this year including the Mizzou game. I'll be at the game tonight.

Now as far as T-Rob. I have watched him grow into a stud. I watch a ton of college basketball, and because KU doesn't have a ton of dominant scorers on the team, most teams that defend KU double, and triple team him. He is still avg a double double with 17/12 respectively. What most people don't realize is how much he has improved over a course of a year. I followed him in the summer league games and he was dominating every BIG in the country including Davis and Sully. Davis is clearly the better NBA skilled body. But T-Rob can handle the rock, rebound like a man, aggressive, can knock down 3's now, solid at the line, and has the most determination after what happened to his family. It was like a switch went off in his head. He has heart, and I hope he can shock the world tonight! Straight beast mode, and I would love to have him on the Hornets!!!

I don't want Robinson.

I don't want an undersized player with our pick.

Robison is closer to 6'8" than anything and is having a hard time creating a shot against the taller, longer defender.

Davis or MKG with our top 3 pick.

He's having no problems creating shots, Davis is just blocking his shots off the ball.

Obviously Davis is the golden egg of the draft, but I'd be very sad if we ended up with MKG over Robinson.
