    I remember watching Garcia a lot on TV last year - he was carrying the team after their other good player got injured. Not projected to be drafted by nbadraft.net but they're never that accurate.

    They do have Jawad going 39th, but also list him at 6-8, whereas draftcity has him at 6-10??

    Jawad has a great attitude and I absolutely love him. He can play big, but prefers playing on the outside. Think of a skinnier Sam Perkins, with better ball control and less body'ing up.

    I really liked Jawad last year, but I noticed he's not that aggresive and avoids contact.

    This year I really like Rodney Carney(Memphis) and Kieth Langford(Kansas). They are both playmakers and scorers. Sheldon Williams is IMO, the best big man in college. Gerry McNamara is the type of PG the Rox are needing. I'd be happy if we only got one of these guys.

    I did a write up on Jawad several months back, and posted it in the GARM, I'll try to find it and post it here.

    Keep your eyes on Felton this year, he's been simply amazing. He's doing exactly what UNC needs, and they are on a tear right now. Even Roy has been complimenting them, that means something :)


    Felton so far has 37 assist and 11 turnovers in the past 4 games... this guy's fun to watch

    I like Langford. He's very athletic but he can't shoot worth a flip. If McNamara's game would transfer to the pros, he would be something. Is he quick enough to make it because he sure ain't big enough?

    J.R. Giddons from Kansas is an athlete with awesome outside range and accuracy. Look out for him on the next level.
