P

[WJF]

Not really high on either one, I will say P.

[Bendit]

O if I must. The bad free t shooting for me is the deal breaker. Cannot stand a big who is physical and draws fouls and then in critical situations cannot make the other team pay for it at the ft line. Deflating all around.

Round 2 - Match 1

The winner of Round 1 Match 8 is:

P)John Henson - 7 votes................ O)Jared Sullinger - 3 votes

Henson picks up the last bid into the Elite 8!

Round 2 - Match 1

I averaged the numbers from a couple of draft sights to put together the report that you see. I threw around the idea of posting the player's position, but since I revealed who is in the Elite 8 I decided to try and make this as blind as possible and keep the position a "mystery". You might be able to guess based on their attributes. In this round I will only reveal who lost the match, and will only reveal the final 4 once round 2 is complete.

One helpful note is that there will be an added category called "post skills" if the player is a PF or C. If not, like the one above, the player is a PG, SG or SF.

this one is tough with position and or height. choosing Q based on nba readiness and potential. i think build/strength will be weird to differentiate between unless we are running on, both players playing the same position in this round.

i have no clue who either of these are. and i thought henson was davis in the last round.

Q. looks like better natural talent

[Vykis]

They both very similar in almost all of the categories, but if you can get a more nba ready guy, with more potential, you take him in a heart beat. So i'm picking player Q out of these two.

my thoughts as well, Q.....looks like a landslide.

[KingMaxwell47]

Q, it won't be close.

[Hello]

Q is better than R by everything except passing and ball handling skills, and even then barely.

I have to say Q as well.
The NBA readiness, higher ball IQ, Intangibles and the higher potential should allow him to surpass R very quickly.

[CalgaryRapsFan]

Q

+1 in shooting, intangibles, nba readiness, potential and bbiq
-0.5 in ball handling
-1.5 in passing

The only way I'd consider R is if we are comparing PG to PG, then ball handling & passing would be much more important; Q's ratings in those categories are the two lowest ratings on the board for either player.
