    I would like to have the rest of the year before I make up my mind about Webs. A full year of starting should be telling at this point.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    For where he was picked, he's still a definite "dud." But that doesn't mean he's worthless. I think he's essentially a decent reserve, in terms of quality. Of course, if he has trouble playing off the bench, that's sort of a major flaw for a reserve-quality player. ;) But I think he can probably play to his modest talent level off the bench once Batum returns.

    Still a dud right now.

    But I really like him, and wish I could just will him to become a better player. But alas, that isn't how it works. Woe is me. :(

    He's on the same tier as a Jarvis Hayes.

    He's neither a stud nor a dud. It's possible that he will continue to hit enough shots to be useful in the starting lineup and I don't think it's a guarantee that he relinquishes his starting spot to Batum when Nic returns.
