    I haven't heard about them. I think either one would be an awesome cjoice, especially Wallace, he looks like a future star. Both are tall sf's too.

    Grizzard is staying at 'bama, but I don't know about Wallace. I think that the Rockets would be in position to draft him if he does come out and I think that they really should. I agree that physically the guy has it all, I just hope that Rudy hasn't already dismissed the guy because he's young and had an off year.

    I don't know if this is true or not but the other day I heard a stat that if you take out the dunks that Wallace made last season he shot a whopping 11%. Can anybody confirm this? If this is true I would be relucant to take him especially with the Zone coming in next season.

    Siv-I wouldn't be too surprised if it was in the low 30s or below. 11% is pretty crazy, I suppose it's possible. Wallace's jumper scares me. He is physically well built, great strength and rebounding skills, but he can't shoot to save his life. For a swingman to shoot below 60% from the FT stripe (56.8%) is sad. Shot an ugly 17.5% from the college 3. Forget the NBA 3. He needs SERIOUS work on his jumper.

    I've heard both Grizzard and Wallace are thinking of going pro. Both said they were staying, but may be reconsidering. I like Grizzard a lot better than Wallace at this point.

    Wallace apperantly just declared today. Of course he's not ready yet but he will be a star at the 3 so maybe we should try him. I still would pick Joe Johnson just ahead of him though. After those two I like Rodney White alot.

    Wallace has mad defense and hops. Forget about Shooting, he can learn that easily. I think he would be a steal at 13.
