aboz56 Posted January 24, 2004 Share Posted January 24, 2004 http://www.nypost.com/sports/45039.htm This would be a huge mistake IMO. Kid doesn't have the NBA body to compete right away, but I guess if you're gonna be a lottery pick, you've gotta consider going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he goes pro I think hes received some bad advice. Nobody is going to a draft a 6'0" point guard out of high school. It is much to large of a jump and you would have no idea what you would be getting. The reason people are willing to draft guys like Lebron, T-Mac, etc.. is that they are just athletic specimens that obviously have what it takes to eventually be good NBA players. I don't see that with Telfair. He'll be a great college player next year, but I think he would be absolutely killed in the pros for at least a few years.

How many #1's or #2's have made the jump to the NBA out of HS relatively successfully... Uh I can think of one. All others have been big men. Go to school idiot, obviously you have somethings to learn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
