    <i>Draft City</i> has him projected to be picked by Utah with the pick they got from Houston (Rice trade).

    Oh sweet sweet irony...

    Still, I thought the Jazz didn't like taking high schoolers, especially after the DeShawn Stevenson experience.

    It would probably make them have second thoughts. If he is the <i>right</i> guy, then I could see them taking a chance.

    Didn't Stevenson have some <i>issues</i> while he was in High School?

    Randolph (Portland) came out at a fairly young age a few blemishes & bumps in his personal life.

    Some can come into the NBA at a young age and handle it:

    Kobe
    KG
    Randolph
    Carmelo
    LeBron
    etc


    and others don't:

    EG
    etc

    If he is in the draft why does it say he goes to the University of Arkansas?

    I'm interested in guys like Arthur Johnson, Lawrence Roberts and even James Thomas...

    We need a big man that plays big... Johnson especially fits the description as does Thomas and Roberts...

    Roberts is going to be a very good player... And he's from Houston Bellaire HS...
