    Does he look like the next Lebron to you?

    No, but you're sounding like the next hugger.

    I don't see what all the fuss is about. He is already a hero in Italy. No reason why he wouldn't be the same here.

    He's much more talented than Beverley. But he's got an incredibly low basketball IQ. He's also not a point guard, and just about the only basketball guy in the world that thinks he's a point guard is Morey.

    He's not at all like Beverley actually and he's not a good fit with Harden.

    Llull isn't a point guard in even a remote way. For an NBA comparison, Llull would be something like a bigger version of Ben Gordon.

    Anything Morey claims to the contrary is just a complete BS.

    I don't know if its just me, but the guy doesn't seem too quick in the nba draft video. Can he consistently get into the paint for dribble penetration?

    Morey magically pulls point guards out of thin air on practically a regular basis. If he says the guy is a point guard I will take his word for it...

    i was interested in your analysis until i saw that you had posted this as well...

    Can White be better than LeBron?
    Think about it. Can he?
    White: 6'8 260
    James: 6'8 250

    Both have guard skills.
    Other than a better jumpshot, Royce is pretty close. Also, he will have the advantage of having more access to Dream, Yao, McHale and CD. It's a good thing that he only really got one season of exposure.
    Is it possible that we may have struck gold?

    Except Llull is NOT a point guard, and Morey keeps claiming he is. Even though he is NOT.

    If Badlee ever actually makes a good prediction, the world will end.

    Stop trolling OHMMS. We both know Llull is a combo guard and naturally he will be still be listed as SG on outdated sites, given that he used to play slightly more off the ball until a year or so ago.

    Llull is listed as PG on his team's website and the Spanish League's website and you know that he's primarily been playing PG this year.

    I'm not sure but wasn't Russell Westbrook a shooting guard in college and Curry as well...???

    I can't debate you on Llull because I know nothing about him _ but what I do know is that the Rockets need someone who can man the point guard position who isn't lost playing off the ball when Harden (and or Beverly and sometimes Parsons) has the ball. And a guy who has spent a lot of time at the shooting guard position and the point guard position who can also handle the ball may be the best backcourt running mate for Harden.
