beasley should be the surefire #1 pick. key word is should, i hope some team (t-wolves) make a mistake and pass him up and my grizzlies can snatch him with the2nd pick. gay + beasley =

The only thing that concerns me with him is his height.
He's 6-9 and projects a 4/3 in the pros...whats wrong with his height?
As for the debate...Beasley is head and shoulders among all those dudes as far as professional potential goes. He's different from the rest in thatphysically...he is a man child. That kid already has an NBA body with a pro game to go with it. There is SOOOOO much more to his game than what he hasshowcased so far. He plays the post at KSt because he has to anchor that awful offense but he's also a wing. He can put it on the floor...he can shootit...he can defend (when he wants)...there just isnt much you can do to stop him...his biggest problem is his mentality OFF THE COURT.
If i had to rank them
1 - Beasley
2a - Rose
2b - Gordon
4 - Mayo
Rose is the prototypical point guard. Big, strong, fast, extremely athletic and can see the floor. I think he's a can't miss pro. Over time he willlearn that he can't always get by on his athleticism which he's finding out now...Once he gains more poise and eliminates some of that erratic play hehas a tendency to fall into he'll be a star. Gordon is probably the best scorer out of the group. Im just interested in how he will effect the game on thenext level beyond that. Right now...i'd say he translates as a bigger...stronger...more athletic Ben Gordon. I want to see Sampson make him the primaryballhandler at IU to develop his skills as a lead guard. He doesnt have to be an elite passer like a CP3 or a Kidd...but if he can hold that point guard slotand be in control with it...he'd be right on the same level with Rose. Mayo has the tenacity and the swagger of a superstar...and the attention to go withit...but as far as skills go...I see nothing about his game that makes him better than the other three. Gordon is a better scorer than Mayo...he can doeverything Mayo cans but the thing that separates them is Gordon's range. Mayo is never going to be as good at running the point as Rose...he's not abeast like Beasley is physically. I think the only way he becomes better than the other three is his work ethic. Depending on how much work he puts in...hecould be better than all of them. But everything im basing my opinion on about their pro potential is just based on skill level

D Rose will be the best player in that draft and the # 1 pick...
