Respert? The guy couldnt shoot off the dribble and didn't have the luxury of getting 4 or 5 layups a game like he did in college . Morrison? Hopson? I mean really? Using failed "prospects" as examples of why a completely different guy won't make it is an unusual tactic. Why was Respert a bust when Eric Snow his backcourt teammate who was picked 43rd in the same draft wasn't (relatively) despite being slower and a lot less skilled player?

Eric snow was a 6' 3" pg. Respert was a 6' 1" sg. That's my point. Snow was a good sized pg while respert was a hopelessly short sg that wasn't athletic enough to overcome his deficiencies to be a success in the pros. In order to overcome that lack of size, respert would have had to be extremely athletic like A.I or Gilbert athletic. Fredette isn't that athletic. He isn't even close.

Now, name me all of the 6' 2" white 2 guards playing in the pros.
