Battles that seem obvious but arent.

 I haven’t seen much of Early or Brown so I don’t think I can comment on those comparisons. I think when it’s all said and done Payne will be a top 20/ late lottery pick. The guy is somewhat a late bloomer, but look at his progression since his freshman year. If he makes that same type of improvement in his first 2-3 years in the league he could be one of the best stretch 4’s in the NBA. Not to mention if he never improved at all he’d still be a contributor an any roster. Really underrated at this point in the season.

 Aaron Gordon or Cleanthony Early- Aaron Gordon, hes an 18 year old freshman athletic freak. Early is a good player, hes a 22 year old senior. Early, according to this site was measured at 6’7 w/o shoes with a 6’9 wingspan. Between the two im taking Gordon because of his age, motor and superior athletics as well his bigger build and wingspan.

Vonleh or Payne: Im a Spartan fan and love Adrien Payne and the progress hes made in his tenure at MSU. He’s older and may be more useful to a contending team initially, but in the long run Vonleh has all-star potential where i really don’t think Adrien does. Payne can definetly carve out a niche for himself as a stretch four and hustle guy. 

Harris vs Brown: Gary Harris. He’s explosive a great defender and potentially dangerous from deep. Brown too is a great athlete, but he isn’t as much of a scorer IMO as Harris. Plus as usual its an age debate. Harris is 19, 6’4 w/shoes and 6’6.5 wingspan. Brown, 6’3 senior 2 guard. Maybe brown ends up as a spark plug off a bench but not the starter, all star that Harris could be.
