Problem is..... he won't get to post up a 6'2" guard every night in the NBA, like he did against UCLA. He'll be facing someone 6'7" plus with some serious hops and some serious attitude every night.

well i would pick him over tyler hansborough any day...who do you think would have more of a great effect to your team right away???CDR is a way better all around player...when he has the ball he has unique ways of getting to the rim...kind of reminds me of current underrated NBA star Tayshaun Prince...They both have long arms...Thats why CDR is my favorite player out of college and Prince is my favorite Professional Ball Player...The great thing about CDR is you can play him at the 2 or the 3...great perimeter and outside shooter...i admit though he might need the gain a few extra pounds whenever he decides to turn pro...He's a junior so he has time...if he decides to stay for his senior year or declare for the draft now wont matter...HE's a great all around player...and another thing him and Beasley deserve the POY more then anyone...tyler hansborough was great in college but he most likely might end up like JJ reddick in the pros...if he doesn't find eliminate some of his weaknesses...

POSTERIZATION!!!

I am not sold on CDR. I think he is a good college player but don't think he will be a good pro. Brandon Rush's defense against him tonight will be key. I think who ever wins that battle, team will win the game.

Rose is the best player in the game tonight. If it close he will win it for Memphis.

G - Willie Kemp

I think he'll be a good pro-
he's got excellent size for a 2 guard- he will bulk up more as he matures
he can drive, shoot, he plays defense , rebounds & blocks shots
all of which will develop MORE as he matures

He will be at minimum a top 10 pick now.
He's GONE
