How many guys in the Top 10 of this year's draft will be an all-star at 23?


With this crop of guys? McLemore and maybe Oladipo or KCP.


I see the top tier of guards in the league (Bryant, Wade, Parker, etc.) going down in the next few years, give or take CP3 if his knee blows up.

I see Curry, Harden, and Westbrook being the top in the West, giving McLemore a shot at making it as a reserve, while I see Kyrie and possibly Deron Williams being the tops in the East and giving guys like Oladipo a shot at making it.

You're forgetting about D Rose and John Wall.

Forgetting about EG (Hopefully), Lillard, maybe CP3 (depending on durability)

quite possibly, but even assuming they're all AS by 23, are we assuming that we deal gordon for peanuts, too?

all 4 of those guys are 2s

exactly. again, we actually got a player who IS an All-Star. Anything about the drafted guys is hope, speculation, and promise. No idea if they will deliver or not...

That being said, I would have been just fine with McLemore but I like what the Pels did here....they finally addressed the hole left when CP3 departed town and I like that

I think the PG position is crucial to having any type of contender in the NBA if your team doesn't have Kobe or LeBron
