[外電] Teams that could take Evan Turner over John Wall
http://0rz.tw/VjB0h
For most of the collegiate season, it looked like John Wall was the only
player deserving of the #1 pick — like a franchise would be crazy not to
take him if it won the lottery. But as Evan Turner has come on — 20-9-6 with
52% shooting — and is pushing Wall for the Naismith award, it has become a
reasonable possibility that a team that already has a good point guard might
pass on Wall and take Turner (who projects to play off guard or small forward
in the NBA) instead.
David Thorpe lists the Timberwolves (Jonny Flynn, Ricky Rubio), Warriors
(Monta Elllis, Stephen Curry), Kings (Tyreke Evans), Sixers (Jrue Holiday),
Jazz (Deron Williams) and the Bulls (Derrick Rose) as teams with lottery
picks that could potentially go with Turner over Wall.
Wall is two years younger and doesn’t have Turner’s injury history. (Turner
broke his back earlier in the season. Yeah. Broke his back.) The two shoot
about the same from three-point range and are both good playmakers. To me,
they both resemble Dwyane Wade, though Turner is longer and Wall is more
athletic (of the two).
This is no indictment of Wall. Turner has played himself into this position
with a brilliant season. Wall is two years younger so he has more upside, but
they both project to be great NBA players, so if a franchise is already
sitting on a very good point guard, it makes some sense to go with Turner.
