It is so totally different. I remember Jameer Nelson having a very difficult time, and he was much more mature. Now he has made it. Some others not so lucky... Telefair (sp?) for Boston. Right out of High School at the point. Miserable year. I question if he can regain confidence. He will talk like he has all the confidence in the world. Playing is a whole diff. ball of wax.

Very true and a point guard needs to have the respect of his team before he can suceed. How many point guards came into the NBA and made an immediate impact? Look at Chauncey Billips. Took him awhile too.
