why he is NOT top 10:

He's strictly an outside shooter, who is good but not great at it, and has a mediocre handle.
If you want someone like that, you can draft Chase Budinger at 15: he too has a mediocre handle, but he's taller, more athletic, younger, and a much better % 3pt shooter. Not that I like him much either, just saying to me he's similar but better, and isn't even top 10 himself.

I can see picking him at 25. Top 10, no way.

...

He's one of the best scorer in this draft, good passer, defender but he isn't a top 10...maybe top 25-30

nope

He is top 40 probably, but he probably isnt even a future starter in the NBA. He reminds me of Morris Almond for Utah (who is chained to the bench there) after a Christmas-like college career

Morris Almond is a perfect comparison here... unfortunately guys like that just don't get true shot in the NBA these days

That is a great comparison

That is a great comparison iguodala. I have to agree I think Christmas is more like a top 50 talent. I could see him making it in the league and possibly even starting one day. He will be a potent scorer due to his ability to shoot over defenders thanks to his big size for a SG. Hopefully he turns out a little better than Almond. Of course Almond is still young too and he could turn it around and eventually earn some legit playing time.
