Very interesting. We'll see though. I think Sean May was saying the same thing at their celebration back on campus last year.
I do remember hearing these guys all planning to come back before they won it though. |

I do remember hearing these guys all planning to come back before they won it though. His intent was to stay, but then everyone else with any kind of talent left, so he didn't want to be the odd man out. This looks like a different situation. That is a really good team, and assuming these guys don't change their minds, they gotta be the pre-season #1. |

They played like a team and they totally gelled down the stretch (something Uconn couldn't do). You can see all of them are friends and they really look like they are just beginning to have fun.
I can definately see them back next year, but if one or two of them change there minds I could see all 3 going pro. However, with these 3 guys I don't think that will be the case and while I like Horford and Noah, I'm happy for the college game. This is exactly what it needs. And yes, I stick to my usual saying, they are fools for going back. You never turn away when you are a guaranteed top 20 pick. |

Now there focus next year will be on getting ODEN!!

I don't think these guys are going to get any higher in the draft than they would today. I really think Noah is making a mistake in particular, as he has zero offensive game, and there is no where for him to go but down the draft board. If he gets exposed by the strong players in the NCAA, he will go crashing down the late to middle first round instead of top 5 where he is most likely today.
