woop, quick question before I leave you to salivating over your ACC godly teams...

How come earlier in the season you would tout your posts and picks and put your record in your threads but now since you have been losing consistently with your picks on here... you leave and disregard your record in your threads?

Hansbrough is only 6'8... Noah was atleast 6'11

Hansbrough will be like Madsen in the NBA. He has the heart but does not have the athletic or basketball abilities as other NBA players/projects.

No mid range game as most of his buckets are put backs and a result of his non-stop effort.

Yeah, he won't be that good in the NBA what do you expect.  He is not as athletic or fast.  Kind of like Hasheem Thabeet being projected to be like DeSagana Diop.  He lacks coordination and fundamentals but will find his nook with a team

Just comparing them because Thabeet is a highly projected big man.  I know Hansborough is leaps and bounds ahead on the collegiate level.

d the same arguement with Boozer. Too small, he will get rocked at the next level.  BS, Hansborough will be good in the NBA. He is an underrated athlete.  Hansborough is a ton better than Boozer was at this time. Same size, Tyler will be good in the NBA.

let me turn the conversation on end for a moment, since the usual blather about equating the big man with best has been done to death IMO.  Who's the most valuable or essential player in college hoops right now?
 
For my money, it's Darren Collison at UCLA.  Bruins poised to make another trip to final 4 and D's the key cog hands down.  Love may be the sexy pick but without Col dishing it off he's not nearly as lethal.

Hansblow is the first player since Christian Laettner that I can remember that is given "home calls" no matter where he plays in college ball.  

I have not seen a UNC game yet where does not get away with 2-3 obvious fouls and is given 2-3 gift trips to the line on his flops.

He'll certainly play at the next level, but best player?  Give me a break.  Maybe the biggest stat stuffer....but that's a different thing all together.
