What y'all think? I saw an article on Yahoo talkin bout who was the top PG... I'd take Acie Law but thats just me, Conley is also one hell of a guy(unlikely to declare for this year though).

I'd actually take Conley over Law. The Lakers are in need of the athleticism and penetrating ability. Conley does it better.

I'm not sold on Law. Conley lead his team to the NCAA Championship game and seems more like a winner.

You have to take Conley just because his potential is so much better.

I agree. If we draft a pg we need one who can come in and contribute immediately. And with Law having more experience he will be able to contribute sooner than Conley.

Conley in a heartbeat. Look waht he did as a freshman. He improved so much during the season. I'm a OSU fan so I will natuarlly have a OSU bias.

It is still not confimed if he is coming out or not. As of yesterday, it was beleived to be a 99.99999999999999% lock that Oden, Conley, and Daquan Cook were all coming back. In fact they were going to announce they were staying at the rally that is going on right now. Then last night, they were all traveling ot Indiana to decide their future, then they were going to announce at the Rally that they were all leaving, now they aren't going to annoucne anything.

As a OSU fan this has been a roller coaster ride of emotion.

Law. Not as pure a PG, but by far more well rounded.

I havent really watched either that much, so for me it comes down to who has more consistent intesnsity, especially on D, who has a better work ethic, and who can score 6 points on 3-15 shooting and yet still have 6 rebounds and 8 assist. While i type this i cant help but think of rajon rondo, like rick carlisle said about him, "he's a game changer". I like Law's size but conley obviously has beter point guard skills, so it all comes down to work ethic to me.

Law. I dont see Conley doing anything special at the next level. Take him off of Ohio State and I dont see being that great at all.

Bingo. I've constantly made the same comparison myself. Conley's game is almost exactly like Parker's. That's not to say they're clones of each other. Parker is a better scorer and Conley is a better passer and defender, but in reality whoever drafts Conley has themselves another Tony Parker.

Conley should be taken before, better athleticism and overall upside.
