Poll: Which guard will have the best NBA career?

Five guards were involved in Blazer trades on draft day: Two we acquired in trade, one existing player we shipped out, and two players we drafted but traded. So the question for the panel: Who will have the best career?

Le choices are:

  • Jarrett Jack. We all know him well, and some of us love him. Some of us love him now that he plays for Indiana. Dude's shown he's a legit NBA player--more than any of the rooks in this poll can say--but he's got some glaring weaknesses in his game, including a few that time and experience won't cure.
  • Jerrod Bayless. One of the top prospects in the draft, though a "tweener" that makes GMs nervous. The fact that we can use a tweener guard probably is one reason we were able to snag him at the end of the lottery. At least one columnist is predicting "multiple All-Star games" in his future; though others have called him vastly overrated.
  • 布兰登。一些急于oth相比er Brandon R (the one we kept); you know that Roy has arrived when promising draft talent is being compared to him, and it's a compliment. Should contend for a spot with the Pacers; a complete player and a winner.
  • Nicholas Batum. French dude who's stock has fallen due to concerns about his ticker. Stat-hounds hate him; he's a (parden the draft cliche) "great athlete". Which means, according to his critics, he can't play hoops. But still, not a bad way to spend a late first round pick.
  • Mike Taylor. Forget about him? Snagged at #55 and traded to the Clippers--has the distinction of the first NBDL player to be selected in the NBA draft. Don't know much about him, other than he can throw it down with author-i-tay.

So...who will be best?
