If I'm Devin Harris I take this week and see myself in the same category as Brandon Roy and start mirroring my game to him. He is what Devin can turn into. I always thought a more athletic Tony Parker was what Harris is but he also has a bit of Brandon Roy in him. I'd hope for him to pace himself just like Roy in the future.
I think Devin Harris' game is a lot like Devin Harris' game and I hope he patterns his game after him.
Actually, right now Devin Harris is playing so well that he is actually better than Devin Harris. I think he should forget about patterning his game after Devin Harris and try to become like Devin Harris instead. Can you imagine if he became another Devin Harris? Incredible!
Look I'm not saying Devin isn't special but I'm not expecting 30+ pts. like this all the time. Oh and right now Brandon Roy is still better than Devin Harris, he needs to model his game like Brandon's, B.Roy knows how to pace himself and is very clutch something that Devin is just now trying to get.
You want to talk about clutch? Devin I believe is 2nd in 4th quarter points in the league! Also It wasn't just VC doing everything in Toronto. In Sacramento, he was oh so clutch too. Roy is a good player, but Harris has absolutely NOTHING to be jealous of.
You must not be reading my comments the right way, I didn't say he wasn't clutch. Don't even make this arguement game on the line who you rather have the ball in his hands because right now it's Brandon Roy, 4th qtr. numbers and everything, just like if it's Devin and Billups it's Chauncey, just like if it's LeBron and him it's LeBron. Devin is just now piecing his game together and learning to and stay w/ on this one be "clutch" ....see how I didn't say he wasn't clutch ? He is learning to be that big shot playmaker. As for watching the game or full concentration ofcourse I watch it do you ? I even watch the full NBA and have seen w/ my two eyes what Brandon Roy can do, respectfully Devin Harris isn't on that level, that would be idotic to think that since this is the first season he is touching his potential.
Sac can't play defense to save thier lives. Have you seen Brandon Roy, have you not seen him game on the line ? or the final 2 - 4 mins. of games he becomes a closer, Devin isn't that as of yet.
