    This is one of the few times I expect the rookies to win. John Wall, Blake Griffin and Demarcus Cousins will eat the sophs for dinner. One of the 2nd year players will have to go ballistic for them to win. Curry? Matthews?

    James Harden and Serge Ibaka have very hard acts to follow considering what KD did two years ago and Westbrook did last year.

    These games is essentially glorified rat ball. The guards dominate the ball. Cousins isn't going to do ****.

    Sophmores will destroy the Rookies. Last yr they were the first rookie team in about 9 yrs to win. Guard play wins in running, pick-up ball like this.

    Sophs had 4 guards over 20 pts last year. Evans, Curry, Jennings and Harden.

    guards and experience together: book it

    Rookies won last year. Westbrook did a lot, but not enough to beat the 4 guards of the Rookies.

    weren't they runners up last year? i'd sort of guess the winners will probably get the A-S game.
