    This is not as asking who is the best right now or who has the most potential. This is staking a claim as who WILL be the best.

    vassell is the easiest pick because he's the highest pick and unlike some (cough samanic) has already earned a bit of quality pt

    I think walker has the most talent - but I picked luka

    walker lacks the heart/drive/motor that a keldon has -

    but samanic is a wild card - he could flame out and become a bust- or he could be the one that surprises

    im betting he will fulfill most of his potential

    Murray already gained some respect around the league..players and refs. Already ALL-NBA Defensive team.

    Murray, Walker, and Samanic are all said to have all-star potential, with Samanic having the highest ceiling. No guarantee he ever reaches it though (or even comes close).

    People are saying Samanic would be a top 10 pick in this year’s draft.

    Vassell he looks like he's going to be a very good two way player.

    one thing that I can agree with is that it won't be white or poeltl

    Johnson is the body, looks the part, has the at ude. Nba highlights are either "hit a big three" or "abuse a smaller player" and johnson excels at the latter. He's a few skills short but is young enough.

    Vassell didn't get to play g league so he may get pigeon holed as a roll player. It's still way early to understand how vassel will expand. But he does have a great base, it's just more of a role player base then star.


    In other words, there are true mvp guys and fake stars, both of which make all star games. Keldon can easily get to fake star status.

    This is tough. They've all been disappointing. Murray I guess.

    I don't get White. He's just been way too inconsistent to get any read on this year.

    He simply can't get physically healthy for any stretch of time.

    Murray and Johnson have improved and I like what they offer. JP has improved as well.

    Walker has the most physical tools, but like White he can't put it together for long periods of time.

    At some point, the guards might have to be thinned out by trade for a pick or veteran player at this point.

    Vassell needs consistent PT to grow.

    theoretically you have to like Murray, Walker, and Samanic if they can reach their peaks but the floor of Vassell looks very enticing. His jumpshot is really good but his ability to shoot it over defenders is what is going to make him really good. His absolute floor is like a Rashard Lewis-lite. Ceiling is Klay/Rip Hamilton hybrid. I'll take it!

    Johnson seem the most promising
    white is a mystery and frustrating
    walker and Murray have so much potential but are not that consistant
    saminic is showing some signs of life but still closer to a bust than a star at this point
    Jacob is what he is and is a role player
    vassal is promising but will get somewhat of a limited role due to all the wing players in front of him

    I think we may need to clear out some minutes in the backcourt at this point.

    Murray
    He's not far from being a borderline all star
    Not sure he'll get there but is the closest and has the drive and at ude

    White
    Really like him and his game- but is really inconsistent and hasn't made huge leaps

    Poeltl
    Really good role player, but given todays game suspect he's not far from his peak impact

    Johnson
    Love KJ, but not really sure how much better he will get. Still very young, but he is a bit of a tweener.
    Next year will tell a lot as he tweeks his game in the off season

    Walker
    Oozes talent- not sure he has the at ude

    Vassell
    I've been a little underwhelmed- But I definitely realize I'm in the minority

    Samanic
    See Walker

    Dejounte as the 1st option will be glorious to watch next season. Guaranteed all star

    Lonnie has the highest ceiling but I didn’t vote for him because he sadly won’t reach it here as long as Pop keeps collecting free checks.

    Murray seems to be the closest as far as mentality and has greatly improved offensively. He is probably the closest.

    Walker and Samanic have the ability, but seem to waiver on their actual ability to do it.

    Johnson and Vassell will be very good NBA players but I'm not sure i see the ability to be more than very good rotation players.

    They all look the same so far. 10-17 ppg with like 4rbs 4ast.

    None look like potential all-stars.

    Keldon could be if he adds a 3-point shot.

    Vassell needs more burn. How good he gets will depend on how he grows physically. He's at least prime Danny Green already. He could be an all-star if he gets waaay stronger.

    Vassell will be Danny Green at peak. It’s not a bad player and I’m not hating but Vassel will never be our best player

    Murray has reached his peak. He has Kyle Anderson/ DDR syndrome where he is afraid to shoot the 3 and that will hinder him going forward bc otherwise I would say him

    White has too much confidence/injury issues for it to be him

    Lonnie was ruined by his dad apparently who told him not to take contact and as long as that is the case he will never be more than what he is now

    KJ is the only one you can put any hope in. But as long as he is playing out of position we are ing him over

    Poeltl

    Luka

    Not sure how people are voting KJ over Murray, I like KJ but he won't be an all star. His defense is terrible most the time and he's way to easy to take out the game by simply packing the paint since he can't shoot. Sure KJ has the drive to get better but Lonnie looks way more promising than KJ and KJ has been way overhyped here despite showing nothing but fearlessness to drive into the paint
