    Default Henderson the next Kobe Jr?

    Pretty good read. They do have a lot of stuff alike.

    Sure. Except one came as a raw talent straight out of high school, the other as a groomed Coach K product.

    I'm not disagreeing with the premise, because I see the similarity myself, but I'm not sure he'll be half as good.

    ^They definitely mentioned that. Anyway, in regard to the article, my initial thought was "yea, right". Nothing changed after I read it.

    I'll be happy if he averages something like 10/3/3 in his rookies season.

    Considering Henderson was drafted primarily because of his defense and athleticism and Ammo was drafted solely to score points and that Ammo didn't have much starting in front of him at the 2 where as Henderson has Raja, yeah, you probably want to never mind that pretty quick.
    SOMEONE will pay for THIS!

    I question the use of a "groomed" coach K product...I don't think he was developed as much as he could have for being three years in college. He was forced to play all over the place since he had no real players around him. With LB he will have a support cast and focus on being a SG . There is plenty of upside here when you consider this and his athleticism..

    If he becomes half of the player Kobe is I'll take it.

    He reminds me more of a Grant Hill type player without the handles,and if he can improve his handle,mid range.................watchout
