Courtesy of NetsDaily: <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Kiki Vandeweghe is no numbers-crunching ?€œMoney Ball?€? advocate. Nor is he someone who relies solely on videotape or even eyeballing a player when passing judgment. Instead, he gives prospective players what Mike Monroe of the San Antonio Express News calls ?€œlittle tests?€??€“fictional scenarios that measure intelligence and ethics. As Ken Berger of Newsday notes, Vandeweghe has six months to prove it works.</div> NBA Beat: Vandeweghe gets back in the game - Mike Monroe - San Antonio Express-News Nets gig allows Vandeweghe to keep eye on Garden - Ken Berger - New York Newsday I'll be honest, his way of doing things sounds really weird. And I don't really like it. I am interested to see if it works, tho.
i dont care how people evaluate players, as long as they find a system that consistently works and produces im fine with it. i wonder if we are going to see a Kiki move this year or wait until the draft/summer
I'm nervous to see how players adjust to him. Many like Thorn but Kiki seems like he'd press more buttons than he's supouse too.
Kiki tested sportswriters for ethics and scruples. They passed with flying colors? I hope Kiki doesn't use the same test for players. I'm afraid he'll get a bunch of no-talent choir boys.

He sshould get no credit for drafting Melo considering anyone would have picked him in that situation after an NCAA tournment he had.
