him into a QB.
He is gonna have to be a two.
No way. Give him the ball and he will do fine. There is very little on the point pressure in the NBA. There are no zone traps. With the team they have they will be pushing the ball which is his strength. He can develop with the team. If he were going to a playoff team i would be worried but the guy has tremendous athlietic skills. very tough defender.

I would not go that far.
But they really have a lot of upside.
They should be a lot of fun to watch.

Aldridge actually might be their best player.
The guy has continually improved. He is turning
into a level headed Rasheed with less range.

Roy is a really good player.

I thought the spurs might have a shot at him.

This is fun.

Chalmers is still left. Let him stay pleasssse.
I admit i didnt see the Nevada guy play but Arthur is a better player than Hickson

He is indeed. I think he got injured, so he kind of hid at
the end of the season.

Did Sumitas spike your drink? They are 2 years away from being a serious team. Rookie point guards dont win championships. Plus they lack depth in the frontcourt. Oden has yet to play a game so he is really still a rookie. Jack was a key guy for them.

You and I have very diff. views on PG.

True. Your version is a college or high school version. Mine is an NBA version

Westbrook reminds me a lot of Kevin Johnson
