Ditto. I'm not sure how his athleticism matches up with frontline NBA players, but he hustles, he defends, he can dribble, he rebounds well and he's got some nice touch out to about 18' so far. If I squint a little I can almost see him in the regular rotation.
For the first time I put a poster on ignore. I can see already the point of others that it doesn't do a lot of good if others reply to said person. I agree that the best way is to ignore, don't feed the troll, but I would think after a certain point mods would get involve.
I had seen him play once in college, but didn't think of him as an NBA prospect. Pleasantly surprised, but I have my doubts about how he'll do against legit NBA sized bigs.
Well I probably watched him at least 2 or 3 times without really "watching" him in the past 4 years (I can't say I've ever gone out of my way to watch a Villanova game) he's just never been a guy I noticed.
Disappointed we don't have Stephen Hill. I think he would improve our SL team a LOT. Our players could actually play their projected positions.
I haven't been paying too close attention. But WTF is Jeter doing in with Bayless. I thought they established Bayless is going to be the PG! Also, why has he stopped trying to pass...
Not even that. He was aggressively setting people up and scoring last game. This game, he's just passing on the perimeter. I don't know if it's just Bayless or if it's by design, but I'm guessing it's by design since he's done it on every possession.
http://www.nba.com/summerleague2009/games/boxscore.jsp?gameId=1520900029 You can see his stat line here As for his play, he's just a very willing defender, very heady, has a nice midrange shot and he puts his nose in the middle of the action. I have no idea how this translates to the regular season, but he's kind of like the anti-travis.
