I agree with you, Tribe, that WL Jr. WILL be one of the top 10 this coming season, but that's maybe a little bit of hopefulness added to his unique play-making ability. There are some stretches where he's one of the Top 7 or 8 in the Valley - just was inconsistent last year, and rightfully so for being his 1st season as PG, which is not the most natural spot for him. Thus, I would not have him on the list.

Bradley does su...I just can't use that word for my team! But the players have a tremendous connection with the coaching staff, and I'm prepared to see Walt and Dyricus take more leadership on the team, taking the losses pretty hard last year.

I just love Walt's, I'm gonna make something happen somehow" attitude. He's got a little chip on his shoulder, which Braves fans would like other guys on the team to have. And because they didn't show that last year, Walt's somewhat questionable attitude and decisions on the court stood out.

Just to play Devil's Advocate....who do you take off the list?


Sorry for just getting back to you.

Anthony James for sure. Possibly Anthony Dowling and Seth Tuttle and Tyler Brown.

I don't see how anybody could mention taking Tyler Brown off the top 10 list. According to ESPN the kid averaged 13.7 pts shooting 45% overall and 45% from 3 in his first season in the Valley! Need's to cut down on his TO's but other then that he is as good as any guard in the league. And is as good a shooting guard as Colt Ryan IMO. Brown actually shoots a higher % then Ryan! Brown just isn't the focal point of Ill St. offense like Ryan is at UE....
