Stephen vs. Ty?

More from Bonnell:

The way I hear it from someone who should know, New York’s eighth pick might come down to a bake-off between Davidson’s Stephen Curry and North Carolina’s Ty Lawson.

I can’t believe Lawson is the eighth pick in this draft, but let’s play this out because it’s an interesting exercise: Lawson is dramatically superior as an athlete. Curry is dramatically superior as a basketball player. Do you want the triple-jump champ or the kid from the movie Hoosiers?

My gut: Curry will be a better pro over the entire course of his career.
