Fab Melo @Melo_elo51

Its the right move for Leonard, his stock will never be higher. He's the highest rated Center on the board behind Drummond. Next year he'd likely behind Nerlens Noel, Steven Adams, and Cody Zeller if any combo of them came out. The 2012 incoming freshman class is deep with NBA talent at 4 and 5.

I agree on the Leonard deal but what is sad is Illinois could haev really used him this year properly with Groce taking over for Weber. For a 7 footer Leonard really is an athletic freak. Agile and explosive player. Questions about his attitude but if it all clicks he could end up being one of the two or three best players in the class. Kid is that naturally talented.

I've seen Leonard's game and I think he deserves to be a pro.
