Not a flashy player by any means, but I enjoy watching this guy as much as anyone. Picked one spot ahead of Nanu. He is incredibly old school. Smart, strong and savvy. Anyone else check him out this year?
He translated well into the pros, good pick up by the Bucks. He just fell so low due to his age, drafted at age 23 and is currently 24.
I also said Nurkic would've been a nice addition to this team but people on the forum dismissed/laughed at it.
That's impressive, I had no idea who he even was until midway last year. People were acting the same way when the idea of trading for him this year came up. Look at him now. Portland made away with like bandits in that deal.
I've always said he's had the potential to become the guard potential of Kawhi. Very similar demeanor and game. I'm a bit surprised at his versatility to play point, but Kidd has done a good job in that aspect. He was my favorite player in college last year and I was devastated when the Bucks took him one spot ahead of us.
