As a huge UK fan, of course they are my 2 favorite rookies, and they’re both looking like the best rookies so far. Wall with 21 points, 9 assists, 4 steals and only 1 TO. Cousins with 16 points and 16 rebounds.

Who do you think will have the better rookie year? Career? Who do you think becomes an All-Star first?

 I thought Cousins was the best player in the draft.  But John Wall looks fantastic thus far.  But Cousins is going to be a dominant player at a position that has like 3 in the whole league.  So I think Cousins will reach his peak first.

I think theyll both have great careers. Wall might be the most electric playmaker in the league even as a rookie. Im sure there will be times he struggles but he has the potential to be a top 5 PG which I think he will be in about 3 to 4 years. Just like Westbrook and Rose a lot depends on him improving his jumpshot but he has plenty of time and decent form.
This year I see about a 18-7-4-1.5 average.

For Big Cuz I see him having a Al Jefferson like career- 20+ pt, 10-12 reb, 2blk.
This year I think 16-10-1.5 is a good projection for him.

Even though theyre both 20, they are the 2 rookies most ready for the nba. Theyll both play big minutes but John Walls speed playmaking will set him apart from everyone else and hell win ROY.

Can I make a predicition that John Wall has a better rookie season than Rose and Westbrook he has a better jumper form than both of them had when they entered the NBA and he plays defense which leads to bieleve he will catch Rose in the next couple years because Rose dosent play hard D. As far as Cousins I think his conditioning issues will limit him in the first maybe second year but he is gonna be really good

[ChewyParticipant]

but his new coach is Tom Tibby so…. that could change very quickly. I think Cousins will have a better chance at getting to the all star game first because of his position.

[goneParticipant]

That another thing im afraid of is people will overrated D Rose’s defense because Tibby is gonna have the team playing good team D but one-on-one defense is a mindset not really a skill

[SubZeroParticipant]

Yeah it’s kinda funny, do you have those friends that are so biased and close-minded, that anytime they have a player from their school/team do anything halfway decent, they say he’s the next big thing but anytime there’s a star from a different school/team, they say he sucks? My friend at school said DeMarcus Cousins was raw, and that John Wall sucks…he’s an LSU fan, go figure lol

[goneParticipant]

Yea those "When the Lakers/Cowboys lose insert excuse here" friends got plenty of them

[lalailaParticipant]

i think this 3 rookies run will be sick..i really think DMC Wall and Griffin all are good enough to be R.O.Y.

[mj23mj23besteverParticipant]

be harder for wall to make the all star team first beacuse of d rose and rondo already in the east
