I think Lou Williams will do great. Kid has definitive talent, and I hope he does great with us this year. I agree with your list Brad :).

Thanks for responding Kyle. :) Yeah, with Andre Miller going to my Portland Trailblazers, Lou is going to be the starting PG now. Hell, even last year when his minutes were limited in the mid to lower 20's, Williams still managed to score 13 ppg's, and over 1000 for the year. Philly's coach said that Lou's minutes will likely be in the 37, to 40 minute range, so his stats are going to go up across the board, most noticeably in the points, blocks, assists, and steals department. Most people haven't even heard of my number one choice, Anthony Morrow, but he is going to be a big star some day soon, without a doubt. He's had four games this pre-season, and here are his numbers in those 4 games.

Game 1 vs L.A. Clippers Won:

Min: 26, FGM-A: 8-11, 3PM-A: 4-6, STL: 2, Points: 21

Game 2 vs L.A. Lakers, Loss:

Min: 30, FGM-A: 8-18, FTM-A: 6-6, 3PM-A: 3-9, Points: 25

Game 4 vs Phoenix, Won:

Min: 39, FGM-A 11-21, 3PM-A: 4-8, FTM-A: 4-4, Reb: 6, STL: 1, Points:30

The reason I didn't list game three against The Lakers, is because he only played 16 minutes, so obviously his numbers weren't very good. They did win that game against L.A. though by 19 points. They're current pre-season record is 3-1, and I honestly believe they're going to make the biggest turnaround this season. Last year they sucked, but if you look at the talent on that team from top to bottom, I think they are one of the deepest teams in the league. Hopefully Don Nelson can keep this team together, if he can, I guarantee you that within a few years, they'll be serious contenders. Anyway, Morrow is going to be a HUGE star one day. And remember, you heard it here first!! ;)
