    Jeremy Lamb - He's a rondo clone, he can't shoot, is undersized, but is a great distributor, his assist numbers are down bc he played on a bad team at UConn

    Royce White - I'd compare him as glen rice with no handles....he's 6'8 killer shot, dead eye from deep

    Terrence Williams - He's a Triple double waiting to happen on any night for the defending champion kentucjy, he was lebron-lite

    now take the opposite of everything i said and its true

    Lamb: Reggie Miller?
    White: Boris Diaw with a little Barkley toughness sprinkled in.
    Terrence Jones: Josh Smith meets Patrick Patterson.
    Motiejunas: Pau Gasol

    Meh, current is a bit of a stretch for me. I'll go --

    Lamb = Kerry Kittles
    Jones = a less fat Rodney Rodgers
    White = a meaner, thicker Lamar Odom

    LOL,
    After reading 'Jeremy Lamb - He's a rondo clone, he can't shoot' I just assumed this guy doesn't know what his talking about and couldn't be bothered to read the rest. Sure fooled me.

    All you need to know about this draft is WE ARE SET analysts say we compare favorably with the 1992 Dream Team from barcelona and that the Heat are in trouble

    Machado - stockton
    Lamb - jordan
    White - pippen
    Terrence Jones - Malone
    Motiejunas - Bird

    Thats how our rookies have been rated as far as ceilings.....by clutchfans

    Personally, my take in rocket comparisons

    Machado - rick brunson
    Lamb - Sam Mack
    Royce White - Othella Harrington with handle
    Terrence Jones - T-Will complete knucklhead with talent, mchale will bench
    Harrelson - Pete Chilcutt
    Motiejunas - More Athletic Scola, will rebound less and shoot better & deeper

    Lamb - Rolando Blackmon

    White - (a really really really poor man's miniature version of) Magic Johnson (stop laughing! People already half-jokingly compare him to LeBron, but to me he reminds me more of Magic)

    Jones - Carl Landry maybe?
