I see him twice a year and honestly can't remember much about him off the top of my head other than him being a good defender and having a bunch of potential. I think he's also fairly athletic. Other than that... I don't know much. So uh, what's his deal? Is he a fast break guy? Shoot first or pass first? Am I remembering his defensive ability accurately? Is he indeed athletic? Fast? One of those PGs that destroy us because we can't guard the super quick PGs? Is he clutch? A guy willing to take big shots? Something else? Thanks.
Good scoring skills... Good vision of the court... Great first step... Very quick and intense... Very athletic... Active defender... Not very strong... Bad three-point shooter.

Fast, definitely, but doesn't really have the passing skills of a PG. Fortunately that doesn't matter as long as we have Carter, who is probably now the best passer on the team.
If you post the Hoopshype scouting report at least link to it. Claiming it as your own is some weak shit.
I doubt it happens since Thorn doesn't trade players at their peak value, but Harris is slobbered over by a lot of GM's. I'd like to see Thorn rip off another team in a Harris trade.

I love Harris as a backcourt-mate to an offenseive initiator like Wade or Kobe. This makes sense if Vince Carter plays at a high level. I wish Harris was a better shooter, but other than that I really like him.
and for his highlights...why not throw in a nice mix.. <div><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/I9_IGn09Ax0&"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/I9_IGn09Ax0&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350" /></embed></object></div>

hes a good player with alot of potential , he was also voted a team captain of the mavs among his teammates so were gettin a good character guy in return

One thing I'll be happy to see is a PG that drives to the rim. Been awhile since we had that.
Top-notch penetrator, very fast, decent defender, good size, lacks playmaking skills and shooting touch. Overall not a bad replacement for Kidd in his twilight years.

The Nets are not really under any pressure. They can take their time, see how he fits in and decide if they want him long-term.He hasn't played all that great up until now, so it's unlikely his value will go down.

#11 in PPS, #18 in A/48, #20 in APG, so it seems he's more of a scoring point than distributing. I wonder if he could wind up being our SG of the future, especially if Marcus develops. I think a team of Marcus/Harris/Jefferson/Krstic/Boone would be nice.
