    1. You thought Blake Griffin was this good

    2. You thought Michael Beasley was a bust

    3. You didn’t think James Jones could actually shoot over 40% from deep for this long

    4. You expected more for Harrison Barnes

    5. You didn’t even have Terrence Jones as a Top 5 prospect at the beginning of the season

     

    I raise my hand for #1, #2, #3, #4.

    I raise my hand for 1, 3, 4 (maybe) and 5 

    1. I knew Blake was a beast after watching him play in Oklahoma. In the fantasy league I am in with my friends, blake was gone pretty early because we all thought he would be at least a 18 10 guy in his first season.  

    2. I never thought Beasley was a bust but he was just in a bad system. He is not fit to be a second or even third option. Miami has no clue how to use him. he has all the offensive tools

    3. James Jones.. knew he was a shooter and would get a lot of shots bc of wade and james.. but yeah over 40% is pretty impressive. 

    4. I might get minus points for saying this. When i first saw some highlights of harrison barnes in hs. I did not think he is THAT great.  I saw his potentials as a very decent nba player but not number 1 pick worthy. I was probably just spoiled by those flashy highlights from recent number 1 picks like wall, griffin, rose, ogden, howard, james, and etc… I guess i expected a lot more since he was so hyped up.

    5. Watched two of his games back in HS. Very versatile, but yeah he wasnt in my top 5 prospect. (top 10 tho)

    I was very confident that aslong as Griffin keep his athleticism he would be a very good player this season.

    I didn’t think James Jones would play so much actually, but with Miller out he has stepped up.

    I am still not sure if T. Jones will be a Top 5 pick… So many guys right around that bubble…I thought he may actually stay 2 years. I think he will out this year and be Top 8 pic if not Top 5.

    it’s so funny to hear someone saying he thought Harrison wasn’t LOL…

     

    1.Yeah i thought Blake was a monster

    2.I loved Beasley always..

    3.Haven’t even thought about it..

    4. hmm he is probably my number one now i love him so match(still love Perry’s potential too) but had him just #12 in my preseason rankings.

    5.I thought Harrison was going to be a PHENOM an 18yrs old playing like 28 and still with huge upside..still believe he is top5 pick hands down but nothing like i thought

    My arms are getting tired. Never really doubted James Jones had a burner though.

    1. You thought Blake Griffin was this good

    Hand raise.  I remember watching this guy a lot in college.  He was a beast, and I knew he dominate in the NBA.  I just didn’t know he’d be the next Vince Carter in terms of highlight plays.

    2. You thought Michael Beasley was a bust

    Hand down.  The guy played the begginning of his career with the ball stopper Wade, and he was an immature guy playing in the city with the most off the court distractions.  Didn’t expect to see much out of him.

    3. You didn’t think James Jones could actually shoot over 40% from deep for this long

    Hand down.  With all those open looks he’s getting he shouild be shooting 60% from deep.

    4. You expected more for Harrison Barnes

    Hand down.  I knew he was over rated, been calling since last year and everyone got on me.

    5. You didn’t even have Terrence Jones as a Top 5 prospect at the beginning of the season

    Hand up.  Didn’t think he was this good at all.
