Hansborough is one of the best Heels of all-time....4-0 in Cameron, ACC scoring leader, and now he's a national champion.
Why the hell would anyone want to go to Mizzou?!?!?!

How well do you think he is going to do at the next level? Guys like him and Griffin who are really athletic and big compared to their college competition don't always make the transition. I'll say this for Hansborough, he has a pretty good jump shot and even makes a threes from time to time. He may have problems matching up defensively with PFs in the NBA but I do think he will be able to give good offense off the bench.
Griffin will be a star, Hansbrough will be a bench player, I'd be surprised if he ever averaged over ten points a game for a season.
And I don't even really dislike him, I only pay attention two weeks a year, just got tired of hearing about him when he's the third best player on his team. He may turn out better than I think but I doubt it, he doesn't really have the size or athleticism, good college player though.
Griffin will be selected early...I don't think he's great just yet but he's a solid player (who looks slightly retarded) and he's going to be THE PLAYER for a bad team: LA Clippers, Sacramento, Memphis, The T-Wolves...it's not going to be fun for him until those teams add more talent.
Hansbrough is going to have it made, he'll get selected later in the draft and that means he's going to be a piece on a good team: Boston, LA Lakers, The Suns, Dallas, The Cavs. That will give Tyler the time to progress slowly and I think he's going to be a great teammate but probably just an average player who may end up starting later in his career. He does the blue collar work, grabs boards, draws fouls, hits free throws, and he gives 100% all the time...who wouldn't want that guy on their team?
I think Danny Green is going to be really good as well as Ty Lawson who (bar Phil Ford) is the best UNC point guard ever! Wayne Ellington is good as well, when he's on fire there's no stopping him.
