Well he is going to be playing at the Rose Garden against the Ducks tomorrow night I think. So I might pick up a ticket and go down and see him live to get a sense of how good he is.
i was just saying the same thing the to my uconn buddy. he looks like a poor mans ellis all of a sudden. and uconn has also come CRASHING back to earth.
Walker just doesn't impress me. He's been shutdown so far in this game against Louisville. The 5'8" Peyton Siva has basically kept him in check the entire game so far. He's 2-8 with 1 of those shots a prayer bankshot 3. Imagine what he's going to be like against NBA guards. He was just hot at the beginning of the season. Dude has come back down to earth drastically.
Screw Kemba Walker or any PG in the first round. Sign Josh Wilson from Hungary/NAU this summer. He's the next Steve Nash. He only needs a chance!
When we miss playoffs. Package Wallace and oden to draft walker. Wallace doesn't fit. We need a scoring pg badly that can shoot.
Since you posted this originally nbadraft.net dropped him from the lotto to #26, 5 spots after Portland currently is slotted to select. Then again, draftexpress has him still pegged at #7. In the games I've watched he hasn't seemed like a PG. Stats show he's not all that great of a perimeter shooter percentage wise either. Dude can create an open look for himself though. This draft isn't projecting as a particularly strong or deep one, but a 5'10 chucker isn't really a direction I'm pining to go let alone give up on Greg for... pretty sure Portland could parlay that chip into something far better.
