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.

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.

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.
