Would It Be Smart to Pass Up on Xavier Henry?

[moe_shuttlesworth]

I saw his interview with raptors, seems like a good kid, games reminds me of
b-roy, so i ask if he were still available at 13, would you take him

[Apollo]

Well, of guys who may slip out of the top ten he's the only one I've heard in the same sentence as "can't miss".

[INFO]

hmm i havent really heard of him as a "cant miss" player
but i really do like teh guy
he handles himself really well in interviews and he has solid numbers from Kansas
If we were to draft him i wouldnt mind, and having him and Derozan would be a nice young set of wings

[it is what it is]

big big fan....

Should be a good player...George has more upside but more bust potential....

Xavier has a very little bust potential IMO

He sounds like a great kid too....If Raps get him they will be very very happy again in my opinion!!

A bit of redundancy I think with DD and Weems around. He might actually be the better of the three but if DD is moved draft day ....

If the Raptors pick him I can see Stephen A Smith go..."Now what the hell are the Raptors doing etc etc". Remembering his rant when Charlie V was picked and he went bananas because Bosh was ready to break out at the time.

Xavier Henry sounds a lot like Brandon Roy except he can't dribble the ball + can't pass the ball + can't create his own shot.

Unfortunately, Henry is more Brandon Rush than Brandon Roy.

If you draft Henry what do you do with DD? Can either of them play the 3 consistently? I believe the answer is no.
