    I would have voted for Harden, but with Durant jacking up all the shots, I seriously doubt that there is enough ball to go around for Harden to rack up ROY type stats. Curry can shoot the lights out but he'll get limited playing time because he is a liabilty on defense and is on a team with a log jam at the guard positions. So I went with Tyreke Evans, who is able to D and play multiple positions, especially the point guard, entailing he will have the ball in his hands on a team which is thin on perimeter defenders.

    My darkhorse pick is DeMar DeRozan. His Vince Carter-lite game fits the Raptors uptempo style and he will benefit from playing alongside Calderon, who is a pass first PG.

    Cause he is the only guard drafted that has played with pros and not just young college kids

    Well, Rubio AND Jennings have
