I've seen OJ Mayo play and I do think that John Wall is the same type of player he was. Their both in the same league.

Wall was rated higher than Mayo coming out of high school and Wall is the projected #1 pick in the '09 draft. Mayo was what, the 3rd or 4th pick.

Mayo was said to be the BEST EVER in AAU baseketball to play against the best talent in the country. Never heard those same accolades about Wall. Don't take this as a slap by me against Wall, but you all are making these predictions based n a player who has no interest in playing college basketball, and history has recently given us an example that we would all be foolish to not remember!

Mayo was projected to be the #1 pick before he every played in college. Mayo was an extremely motivated player heading into college, and got extremely bored with the game with after being surrounded by some of the best players coming out of HS surrounding him. He was coached in college by an NBA style coach who is known as a great players coach and teacher. Mayo went on to be the hands down BEST ROOKIE in the NBA last year, and on that many NBA insiders are predicting to be in Lebron's and Kobe's class before his fifth year in the NBA is up.

Sound familiar? Lot's of expectations for a player who has never laced them up. And that's what I said about Mayo two years ago!
