    Delfino and Harris know each other from their year in Milwaukee together.

    How are you gonna claim to be a big Beverley fan and spell his name wrong multiple times?

    Kidding aside.. he reminds me a lot of Rajon Rondo. No not the Rondo that has become the superstar he is today but the young RAWndo from his first couple of seasons. Similar frame, size, length, athleticism, rebounding instincts, defensive ability etc. Similar weaknesses in terms of shooting, form, lack of experience, among others are present but it's hard not to be excited about Bev's potential.

    The only thing that would make me more excited about Bev is his age. At 24, he's just now getting his real shot so I'll just pretend he's an older rookie but if he were say 20 or 21 I'd be more excited about his potential to develop. I'm not saying he can't or won't but he has quite a few things to work on.

    I really liked Armstrong. I really like the Armstrong comparison. If Beverley becomes our Armstrong, that would be great.

    Darrell Armstrong is exactly who I thought of when I saw him play the first time. But not the broken down old version. The young up and coming scrapper who fought his way off the bench with his energy and hustle.

    As much as I like Brooks and think he could do well here, I really don't want it to be at the expense of Beverly.

    This ^

    Rick Barnes pissed away all that talent - Durant & Augustin! Billy G would've won w/ thst kinda talent, this coming from one of the many Aggies who hated Billy for not staying.

    okay i get it bev is great, but we can certainly make more threads to praise guys like james harden, omer asik, c parsons and j lin. theyve also been great, people act like bevs our hero, but hes not, you guys are overrating him a little bit, hes a good defensive player, but we can appreciate our starters as well instead of sh itting on them whenever they make a mistake. Give them some credit, they contributed more than bev did

    The guy has 2 threads, and this one is a month and a half old and got bumped for the first time in a month today. So in reality he's only had one thread for the past month, why does Beverley getting a little credit bother you? He's been incredible off the bench.

    You don't see enough threads about Jeremy Lin? Are you blind?

    And there have been multiple threads about the other starters. Calm down.
