Tam, I don't have the article in front of me either (read 
it last week), but the phrasing (quoting a scout I 
believe) was something like that. Or maybe the entire 
article was about Captain Kirk. 

I believe it also said Nick Collison could be a top-ten 
pick, but I'm not sure anymore.

You are right that there already have been some Freshman 
surprises. And there were some Freshman last year who 
were disappointing, but could blossom this year as 
sophomores (Jason Richardson was kind of like that, so 
maybe this Kevin Tolbert guy will do the save for MSU). 

And, of course, if Pitino is praising a potential prep 
recruit, he MUST be all that. ;-)

I guess these drafts do tend to nearly even out by June. 
Kids are smart enough to enter the draft if its weak, or 
stay out if they need an extra year. 

But this sure doesn't look like 1996 (Antoine's year), or 
even 2001. Has anyone actually seen clips of LeBron 
James, or know where to find them on the Net? I'm very 
curious how any high school guard could be this "can't 
miss".
