    I admit after seeing Wilcox tear it up in the Tourney (to some extent) I was wowed. He was so raw and athletic I was like ...maybe he can be a Shawn Kemo like player (pre crack).
    Then I got to thinking about it. I dont think Wilcox is as athletic as Kemp...When Kemp was on top of his game...he was just in a class of his own athleticism wise. Wilcox doesnt have anything outside of the 3 ft range. Most of his points in the tourney were from crashing the boards against much weaker players like Mike "why doesnt anyone ever talk about my weight problems, yao ming gets all the skinny jokes" Dunleavy.

    Antawn Jamison did that at N.C...

    Wilcox is skilled defensively..ill give him that./ But he seems to be so lax...he doesnt have that killer instinct..that fire that makes the great players .....

    The more I thought about it, the more i think Wilcox will be nothing more than a Kelvin Cato.

    If you guys remember a few years back...Kelvin Cato ate everyone up in the NCAA at Iowa State. I would argue that he was better in college than Wilcox ever was.

    Plus Cato is taller than Wilcox...Wilcox is cut up..but only weighs about 230...

    Don't worry, the Rockets will not draft him unless maybe he falls to #15.

    I see Wilcox becoming a slightly worse Ben Wallace at best.
