I watched a lot of college basketball this past year and while I don't think Gray is a great player, I really wasn't impressed much at all by Hawesthe handful of times I saw him play. I'd rather have Noah and Gray then Hawes by himself. There really wasn't much out there for what the Bulls needed at nine anyways. I just hope Paxson has some kind of longterm plan to find low post scoring.

I think Gray became vastly underrated. I don't think he will be a star but a player of his dimensions alone is likely to be in the league for 10 years.
