In other words, rain is still wet, wind still blows

Pretty weak rookie crop this past season, MCW was a nice pick at #11 overall though.

**jjgold** · 05-05-14, 10:36 AM

Well deserved

Good player and will get better

Yeah wasn't much doubt or competition.

**jjgold** · 05-05-14, 11:25 AM

Guys going to be an all star

Has all the tools for a great point guard

**Ratpack** · 05-05-14, 11:57 AM

TERRIBLE shooter jj

**Cross** · 05-05-14, 12:59 PM

Fair enough, I agree it was a weak class.

**Ghenghis Kahn** · 05-05-14, 01:20 PM

roy = playing for a bad team getting plenty of playing time

**Chi_archie** · 05-05-14, 03:31 PM

Well deserved

He earned it! Played for a rebuilding team and did more than his share. Needs put on a little muscle though, if he wants to compete with big men. He will get there, still very young. Congrat's to him.

**Mitchell88** · 05-05-14, 03:59 PM

think was the easiest one there has been in a while, I'm not sold on anyone until after the second season. Not even a bit

**BennyBigNuts** · 05-06-14, 12:44 AM

Carter Williams would have won by default even if he had an average year, but he had a great year for a kid on a shit team and being a rookie.
This may have been the worst rookie class we have ever witnessed.
Not even sure how much I believe in next year's group either.

**KRIT** · 05-06-14, 12:50 AM

What a horrible draft class. Has to be one of the worst ever.

Has to be one of the worst but tough to remember the past classes. Let's take a look at the past ROTY winners for shits.

00-01: Mike Miller
01-02: Pau Gasol
02-03: Amare
03-04: LeBron
04-05: Okafor
05-06: Chris Paul
06-07: Brandon Roy
07-08: Durant
08-09: Rose
09-10: Tyreke Evans
10-11: Blake Griffin
11-12: Irving
12-13: Lillard

That's a pretty good group of players and before them a bunch more in the 90's. I hope MCW keeps the trend going and isn't just average like Tyreke who seems to be the one in that group that doesn't fit, still not terrible though. He needs to work on his jumper and get stronger but with his size, rebounding and defense at the point, he's gonna be in the league for years.

Damn, tough to think of a worse one. That top 10 is brutal, about 3 players got significant minutes...barely. Whole draft is brutal, wow.

**Grits n' Gravy** · 05-06-14, 03:22 AM

Played on a team that lost 20something games in a row and won an award....smh. Just shows how bad this year's rookie class was.

**ApricotSinner32** · 05-06-14, 03:46 AM

Solid player but really i've never heard of him pal. Jarred jack would blow him off the map.

**k13** · 05-06-14, 05:04 AM

He sucks in reality.

Mins + lots of shots = roy

Don't feel like checking but I'm sure he shot like 40% like all scrubs do plus a shit load of turnovers.

**jjgold** · 05-06-14, 05:35 AM

It's getting harder and harder for these college players to excel in the NBA

NBA rosters are pretty loaded from players from all over the world now

**LordVodka** · 05-06-14, 07:29 AM

Never even heard of this guy. Who was the runner up?

Burke has most potential out of the three

I have always liked Oladipo myself.

I think the 2000 draft is the worst one in the past 20 years. http://nbadraft.net/nba_draft_history/2000.html

How big of a bust will Bennett be considered in the next 4-5 years?

**jjgold** · 05-07-14, 12:34 PM

Most guys turn into busts

Some are high picks and some are low picks

Not many can't misses anymore

**rm18** · 05-07-14, 07:26 PM

Kelly Olynk may have actually been the best player but played behind some decent players and did not get as many minutse

**Robber** · 05-07-14, 09:56 PM

Rookies weren't that good this season

Stop it right now please. If you can't crack rotation for heavy minutes in Boston you are average at best.
