Yeah, but I knew what Jackson, Davis, & Harrington were before they became Warriors. I can't say the same about young guys you have that haven't played elsewhere. You do look for skill sets and all that, but you guys remind me of the last week of the season...all year long.

We hype up our young talent and then when they don't meet our lofty expectations we sour on them. It's an endless cycle.

But I can't think of one player who played in this system, became overrated, and then failed after going to another team.

You make a good point. But I also can't think of too many contributors that have left (that weren't vets) in that time span either. Jason Richardson's the only one that comes to mind, and he went to a very similar system.

Lance Stephenson is going pro. What an idiot.

He may end up at the end of the first round, which I think is the best situation for him. I think he'd fail miserably if he was getting mentored by the Andray Blatche's of the world on a crappy team.

Actually it wouldn't surprise me if he went undrafted. Lance has looked out of shape all year. Combine that with his raw game and sexual assault charges, and I don't think it's looking too good for Sir Lancelot.

Hope this isn't another case of too much hype, too soon, but it looks like all signs are pointing to that.

Yeah, they certainly are. It's a shame when that much talent is wasted. The best case scenario is that he impresses teams with his potential in workouts (despite his raw game) and climbs into the end of the first.

I'd be shocked if Lance went in the first round. He would have to have jaw dropping, eye popping workouts for that to happen.

I hope it's late second, so he can go to a good team. No offense to the T'Wolves and all.

Word. You'd be lucky to have him, he's a shot-blocking machine!
