Good no-brainer
Stuckey’s the best sophomore guard by far
How did Aaron Brooks get in?

It was obvious he was goin to make it look at his rookie class…no pg better there! Give him 1 more yr and he will be in the ranks of Brandon Roy, Al Jefferson, Deron Williams and all them and then…he will surpass them to go into the ranks of Dwayne Wade, K. Bryant, and LeBron.
