Speights is emerging as the most talented big man on the 76ers roster

Johnson has all the skills to become a rebounding and shot blocking machine. His offensive game is limited, but he has a motor that does not quit and he gets to loose balls and offensive rebounds that most players either can not or lack the desire to. Wright is an athletic marvel, who can leap tall buildings in a single bound.The question surrounding Wright has always been whether he can harness his raw abilities and become a consistent NBA player. Byron Scott has handed him the keys to the small forward position this year and they are completely his to lose.Wright has worked diligently in the offseason to improve his offensive game and he appears poised to have a breakout season.Despite the lack of support in his first two seasons, his per-36 minute averages are 11.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 0.8 blocks per game.Wright should easily be able to improve upon these numbers now that he will be the team's starter.

Landry came into the league as nothing more than another second-round long shot.He has since developed into a key contributor on a good team that gave the Lakers all they could handle in last year's playoffs.With Yao Ming injured and out for the year, Landry has the opportunity to really let his talent shine. Last year Landry had flashes of brilliance and despite some inconsistency, made some good progress from his rookie season. Landry has developed a nice 1518 foot shooting touch and has an uncanny ability to beat his man off the dribble.His defense leaves something to be desired, but he did show some signs of improvement over the course of the season.He is very nimble for a big man and has great athleticism for a power forward.Expect Landry to really step up big this year and bring his actual averages close to where his per-36 minute averages were last season. Toward the end of his rookie season, Rush displayed flashes of the type of player he can become. He is an excellent slasher, has good range on his shot, has the strength and versatility to play some small forward, and is an efficient rebounder.Landing the starting 2 guard job this year will allow Rush to get the touches he needs to put his talent on display.He is a far better scorer than Dahntay Jones, the competition for the starting spot, but lacks the killer defensive instinct right now.Rush will be one to watch this season He should be good for at least 15 points a night. I see Green being a 16 PTS 9 REB 1.5 BLK per game type of player this year, and will only improve on these numbers in the upcoming seasons. At 23, he still has time to reach his potential, which has to make Thunder fans optimistic about his future on this team.He will always be in the shadow of Durant, but he has all the ability to grow into a Scottie Pippen type of player with an indispensable role on this team..

Chandler declared himself eligible for the 2007 NBA Draft after enjoying only a modest amount of success at De Paul. The Knicks took him with the 23rd overall pick and he began to receive regular playing time late into his first season.Since that point, Chandler has slowly been emerging as a potential All-Star and a cornerstone for the future of the Knicks' franchise.Perhaps his greatest strength as a player is his impressive versatility.Chandler is capable of doing almost anything on the basketball court He is a good rebounder and defender. He is an above average passer and has the ability to score from long distance as well as inside the paint. With his surrounding cast slowly improving around him, I expect to see that consistency to improve along with his teammates. Last year he put up decent numbers, (14.4 PTS, 5.4 REB, 2.1 AST, .97 BLK) but as he continues to find his way on the basketball court, expect those numbers to increase dramatically. Morrow came out of nowhere last year as an undrafted free agent, and now might actually be the most potent scoring threat on a team full of scorers.

He is a lightsout shooter and last season he connected on a league leading 46.7 percent from threepoint range. He also holds the NBA record for most points scored in their first NBA game, dropping 37 against the Clippers last year. Morrow has been flat out going off in the preseason, leading the Warriors in scoring, shooting 55.7 percent from the field and 53.5 percent from downtown. He will continue to light it up this season and I wouldnt be surprised to see him up his average to 20 points a night Keep an eye on this guy He could be special..
