    Is it just me..

    Or does Marquis Daniels seem to be a better player than Josh Howard, I know im only judging my opinion on summer league and preseason.. But daniels has been amazing, i cant believe he went undrafted...

    I think that Daniels is the more NBA ready of the two, but in time Howard will become a consistant back up in the league while Daniel's is hoping around European towns. Just like Rod Grizzard is.

    Haha, Grizzard hasn't been over to europe yet, just the NBDL to the USBL. He's been cut by the Nuggets, Wizards, Hawks, Sonics, and Pistons. OUCH!!!!!

    Just from the NBDL to the USBL.. hes been cut by the nuggets wizards hawks sonics and pistons OUCH!!!!!</div>Honestly, what is it with those Alabama players? They always have great starts to the college seasons then stink it up and don't get drafted half as high as they are supposed to, examples - Rod Grizzard, Erwin Dudley, and Maurice Williams.

    Alabama suffered from bad coaching. Mark Gottfired is awful. He played Gerald Wallace at Power Forward and Mo Williams at Shooting Guard. That is why they both left early.

    Grizzard also had a torn ACL to slow him down after he got drafted...so it isn't totally his fault...

    Yes, but he is healthy now and he still hasn't contributed. I read an article where they talked about how he doesn't play hard all the time. He'll take over a game for five minutes and then just go through the motions and do nothing the rest of the game.

    That sounds a lot like Stromile Swift who once told the Memphis news, "Sometimes I just feel like playing and some nights I don't." Their problem is basically laziness and nothing more. It's a shame that he is so lazy because if he tried he could easily be making millions right now.
