Patrick Patterson should go somewhere in the top 10, but his size might hurt him.

Evan Turner is going to be a stud. I love his game.

I agree. I can't believe he came back. It was definitely a benefit to him to return and refine his game, but still surprises me. Good for him, though. It would be nice to see that type of trend continue.

Turner is looking really impressive through two games. Yes, I know it's two games, but his numbers are outstanding.
Diebler took a game off, so hopefully that means he will come to play in the Garden. They will need him to play well to beat UNC.

Man I would give anything to see Turner light up NC in the Garden.
Haven't really been following the ACC much, but does NC have any athletic ala Danny Green that can guard ET?

Marcus Ginyard is better than Danny Green offensively, not quite as much defensively. Either way, I don't think Diebler will be a factor in that game.
If OSU wins, it will be because of their guards penetrating and hitting tough shots

Danny Green is better than Ginyard offensively, and while Green was a great defender, Marcus Ginyard was considered the "defensive stopper" of the team, ala Jackie Manuel.

I think Ginyard has improved so much offensively over the year it is scary.
your statement would be correct last year, but with the year off he has really improved his face up game and manages the offense really well. Defensively it looks like he is out on the wings guarding smaller players because of Carolina's bigs. Hence the step back in his defensive ranking.

I agree with LTrain23 and I think Ginyard will draw Turner.

Ginyard is unquestionably UNC's best defender. Gauging Ginyard's offensive abilities by the first 2 games is silly. He has averaged 6-8 pts per game over his career, and has a pretty slow release on his jump shot. But he's a super hard worker, and a natural leader. I'm so happy he's back to lead the young Heels!
