He's the natural leader of the best college team in the country. Will be available in the 2nd round this year (might go undrafted but workouts will boost his value). Lightning quick with great handles, although still prone to TO's. Relentlessly aggressive attacking the basket - as well as comfortable running PNR's. Not a great shooter, but his form improved considerably and he's comfortable knocking down open shots. Grew up in the ghetto - makes him tough and street smart unlike doughy harvard guys He can easily carve out a career as a Mike Conley esque pro with a skillset that makes him a great fit alongside Harden. He doesn't have a natural halfcourt IQ, but with enough coaching and experience he becomes very, very solid (Conley took a while to take off). The important thing is he has the raw tools. That's a backcourt I have a lot of confidence in, unlike the scrub taking up minutes at PG now. Now I hate talking about myself, I think it's really tacky, but I am the guy Texans fans are worshiping because of my systematic predictions of how their season would go. So keep an eye on this guy.
What about Trey Burke as an option? Most things i've seen have him projected going late lottery(which could obviously increase).
Peyton Siva may not even get drafted. C'mon, people. Siva is, at best, a mediocre backup PG in the NBA, and that's if the stars align for this guy.
I like how you mention his ceiling as Conley when Conley's numbers are pretty similar to Lin's this season. Haters gon hate.
and if he does not play well . . . he is scrub, morel fails, why we get him, ship him back to europe . . . hahaha :grin:
