NBA Early Entry List

He just started playing a few years ago. He's got a steep learning curve in front of him. His career would have benefited from another year at UCONN. Wait till he matches up with Shaq for the first time, he'll wish he had stayed in school. CRACK, SNAP, POP!

Thabeet's made incredible progress in his 3 years at UConn. He's a guaranteed top 5 pick. He has to go. I agree that he's not ready to be a star in the NBA, but if you're gonna be a top 5 pick you may as well get paid to learn.
 
I bet the Wiz pick him. That would sure be a lot of talent on that team. Now all they need to do is be able to put it all together.


You're right.

A team with Arenas, Jamison, Butler and Thabeet would be VERY formidable...provided they stay healthy.

No doubt, if somebody was dangling that kind of money in front of me, I'd be gone in a minute. I'm just saying he would develop faster with another year at UCONN.

LMAO! This Rook is gonna step in and just take the NBA by storm, eh?

Superman, aka Dwight Howard would snap him in half!

I said he WILL be not that he is. Big difference....This kid has all the tools defensively. They will teach him offense. To me, all he really needs is a little weight on his bones.

The same was said about Howard not too long ago.....;)
