08:00 AM ET 06.16 | Full-blown Jimmermania took hold again in Utah, where Jimmer Fredette helped drive a crowd that included team brass and VIPs, select season-ticket holders and 44 media members. Featuring BYU's Fredette, the NCAA player of the year, going up against Connecticut's Kemba Walker, the leader of the NCAA Tournament champions, this was as hyped as you'll ever see any pre-draft workout. ... Walker, who smiled about the large crowd that came for Fredette, left impressed after playing against BYU's star for the first time. "Jimmer's a great player," Walker said. "I absolutely think he could play the point guard position on the next level, and today he definitely showed that. Him scoring is just a plus. He made some pretty impressive passes as well. I think he'll be great."

#1, Kemba's being politically correct with his praise. No way Jimmer will be an all-star.

agreed, the shear talent at the position in each conference makes it impossible....

Other facets of his game give him the edge over Jimmer (in my opinion... which is about as valuable as warm spit.)

given the "weak" pool of the draft...who do you think should go higher (i think Kyle Singler is projected kinda low)

and then we got a case of the first round "iffys" .....Irving is suspect (injury wise not as athletic as Rose or Wall) Kanter's an unknonwn with Walker and Jimmer being tweener guards on the small side....
