Decided to make this thread because of the Evan Turner and John Wall talk in the other thread...don't remember which thread this started in but here are the stats:

John Wall: 6'4, 195 lbs, Freshman, 35 MPG, 17 PPG, 7 APG, 4 RPG, 2 SPG, 47% FG, 76% FT, 34% 3PT, 4 TOPG

Evan Turner: 6'7, 210 lbs, Junior, 36 MPG, 20 PPG, 6 APG, 9 RPG, 2 SPG, 53% FG, 74% FT, 35% 3PT, 4 TOPG


I like Turner over Wall slightly because of more experience, better size, better FG%.

[Lakersfan1211]

All my friends are high on Wall, saying he's going to be #1 pick.

[Simba]

Evan Turner without a doubt, he's the most polished offensive player that we've seen in some time.

Mine too, they're already comparing him to PG greats smh..

I'll go with Evan Turner 9 times out of 10.

From what I understand, John Wall also has a better supporting cast?

[Instigator]

lakers should draft turner

[Windu]

lakers should draft turner

We're not going to have a pick anywhere near that high unless we come up with some kind of trade.

[MAMBA24ILL]

lakers should draft turner

I like Wall's game

[androsays]

a 6'4" point guard who's physical abilities are being compared to that of derrick rose?

way too much upside to pass on.

nets will most likely get the top pick
they have a need at SF (HES STRONG ENOUGH TO PLAY THE 3)

C-Brook Lopez
PF- Yi Jianlian
SF-Evan Turner
SG- Courtney Lee
PG- Devin Harris

In reality, they're VERY unlikely to get the top pick. The worst team rarely does, but most teams are looking to pick John Wall first anyway. I think it would be better for the Nets not to get the first pick and pick a player based on need, not talent.

from what I am hearing, there is no doubt that Wall will be number one, even if the team has a good PG.. he is supposedly coveted by just about every GM out there which makes his trade value through the roof.. even heard one analyst a little while ago say even if Utah had the number one pick they would take him because of his trade value... but while I think Wall is going to be a great pro, I am really big on Evan Turner.. I think this guy is a star in the making and is a better value since he has the ability to take over a game offensively and combines a nice outside game with a very good inside game while being capable of playing three positions (both guard positions and SF)..

I think the Wall-Rose comparisons are a little much as well.. if Rose and Wall didnt both play under Calipari they wouldnt be making those comparisons.. Rose is twice the athlete Wall is also, not really much of a comparison there imo.. I think Wall has a little more range but Rose is a better finisher around the rim.. I hope the Warriors get the second pick and get Turner since I dont think anyone is passing on Wall.. but you never know, the way they finish in the tournament could change everything, especially if Wall chokes and Turner takes his team deep.

much better supporting class.. while Ohio State was robbed of the 4th number one seed, Kentucky is very deep and have two of the best bigs in the country in Cousins and Patterson, not to mention Eric Bledsoe who is a beast.
