    I think Kemba Walker reminds me more of chris paul when it comes to size, change of speed ability, and court vision than kyrie irving does…. alot of people dont realize that kemba had to score the way he did for uconn this year if they had any chance of winning anything… watch these 3 videos in order and tell me you dont see the similarities:

    Kemba will be solid but he wont be Chris Paul. Kyrie is the only PG in this class who has truly elite potential, but Knight, Walker, and Jackson will be solid. Maybe Jimmer will be solid too.

     He’s not Paul but his step back jumpers are phenomenal.

      ive been watching him since he was a jr. in h.s and cp3 never came to mind… though i do think he has the most potential out of all the point guards in this draft class

    Really, we dont know what these guys will turn out to be, we can only guess and speculate based on what we have seen and the information we know and trends we have seen.  There is no telling how good Kemba can be, I am really high on him, but to get to an elite PG level like Paul, D. Williams, D. Rose, Westbrook, etc (guys who have been in MVP convos)…is very hard.  It is not easy to even get on the level of a Rondo, Felton/Lawson (great PG’s on playoff teams).  I hope that Kemba has that type of success, but I am not even sure Irving is close to being in that convo.

     personally i think knight is going to be the best point guard/any guard in this draft if he declares. Reminds me a young gilbert arenas except knight is willing to pass;  they have the same scoring instincts.  Knight reminds me of a young gilbert but my comparison for him is jrue holidays body (longer)/ with jason terrys skill set. I know thats a lofty and possibly unrealistic comparison but it seems to me to be spot on. Irving to me is more of dj augustines skill set/devin harris athleticism & body. Hes not trully that explosive but has good quicks, he will be an exceptional pg in the nba just see knight impacting the game more on both ends of floor (length will cause problems on defense).

    Potential averages –

    Knight : 20 – 24 pts/game, 7.5 – 10 assist/game, 4 -5 rebs/game, 1 – 2.5 steals/game

    Irving – 15- 18 ppg, 9 – 11 assist a game, 3 rebs/game, 1 – 2 steals/game
