    Jrue Holiday is going to be a good one.

    Nicolas Batum. He can turn out to be a star if given the opportunity.

    None of the following have superstar/star potential, but they'll be solid players i think:

    Pat2
    Gerald Henderson (had some sick stat games this year)
    George Hill

    Terrence Williams anyone?

    I guess this is the idea . . .of who we should be looking to con some other team out of.
    Anyone think any of these could be had for KMart?

    lol @ some of the names on here. they're on bad teams so their stats are over-inflated.

    nick young, derozan??? they're nice starters, but no star potential.

    john wall, demarcus cousins are guys who have all-star potential. they get theirs regardless of the situation/teams. they just need to keep their head on straight, esp cousins.

    Yeah, real diamonds in the rough, Wall and Cousins are.

    Seriously, who doesn't recognize those two for their star potential?

    Paul George.
    Al Horford if he were made the offensive anchor of his team.
    Agree on Jrue Holiday.
    Anthony Randolph (head case aside)
    Greg Monroe

    Cousins and Wall for sure.
    I also like Greg Monroe. Demar needs to learn to pass and rebound and defense if he wants to be a star.

    well, if you put it like that,

    paul george, ty lawson, jrue holiday have all-star potential. they are all good all-around players already. and with more seasoning, they can be scary good.

    Wall and Cousins will be all stars fo sho. Ty Lawson and Eric Gordon will be stars. I think Paul George and Tyler Hansbrough are up there to be stars as well.

    Jrue Holiday and Evan Turner has the makings to be special too.

    Im surprised no one has mentioned Brooks, Budinger or Hill. There are guys on this board who actually think Hill can be an All-Star (they mentioned so in posts). And too many dudes already think Brooks is a star.

    Monta Ellis

    One of the most underrated players in the NBA. Dude played one inefficient season after his moped accident in which half of the Warriors roster was D leaguers.


    P.S. I am sure you could trade for Xavier Henry. Just don't give us back Thabeet.
