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.

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

Westbrook reminds me a lot of Kevin Johnson

I dont like seeing the major scorers getting worn down having to
handle the ball too much. Lebron, Kobe... Gotta be able to set up
your stars.

Dear PG1985,
Jay Bilas just said Kosta Stifoulous has a chance to be "special". Remember what i said about him liking everybody?

Of course who didnt see Utah drafting a white guy....

You're right - I forgot OJ Mayo was coming out early.

I'm trolling as IMUS.

I'm sure Kobe and leBron will appreciate the olympic roster of PG's after what they have been through the last few years
