From watching the Olympics, who's stock has risen the most and who has dropped the most?
Obviously this being a Jazz blog you have to go w/ D-Will on the rise, since he hasn't even been to an All-Star game but in my opinion is playing the best at the PG position and is playing like a superstar.
But then you got D-Wade who is coming back from a horrible season and is just beasting everybody. Yardbaker from Foxsports actually has Wade at #5 on the 5 most overrated NBA players.
You also have Lebron who we all know was a beast but is proving it to the world, but then you also have a few unsung heroes in Chris Bosh and Tayshaun Prince. Did you honestly think going into the Olympics that Tayshaun would be getting more burn than Boozer??
But on the down side you have Kobe who can't hit a 3-point shot (which his fans are blaming on a shorter 3-point distance) and Boozer who is getting Jason Hart type minutes.
So, who is raising their stock value the most and who's stock value is dropping from playing in the Olympics (if that is possible)?

Deron
I don’t know how Deron will ever get passed up again for an All-Star game. Even if he’s not voted in by the fans, I don’t think there’s any way the coaches don’t pick him up. I would love for one of his dunks on someone to fall though. He’s tried dunking on Yao, Kaman, and some other guy in the Olympics. None of them have fallen yet though.
As far as Wade, it was crazy for people to write him off after an injury plagued year. Now everyone is back on the Wade bandwagon.

In a way
I think everyone’s stock has gone up in regards to character. I was already pretty high on everyone in regards to talent.

for me, k*bes has gone down some more
I think its awsome that K*bie gets to play with alstar calibur ballers, cause of the disparity between “lean on me”, and “pay attention to me”. I love that hes wasting posetions on emty buckets. I love that dwade is runnin game aswell. i wonder if bri-ent would be who how he is in another market, imean same jerk, sure. but as recognized?
