    I have been reading alot of post asking what V-span is all about so here is a good report. Looks nice to me. What do yall think?

    Strengths: An excellent athlete that shows rapid development in the last couple of years. He is speedy, tough and has very quick reactions. He's got unlimited energy in his game. His leaping ability is impressive. His offensive game is aggressive. He likes to run in the open court and penetrate the paint. His crossover dribble is quick and brakes ankles. His passes are money in the bank; has quick decision making. He runs the offensive sets successfully and delivers the ball to the right person in the right time. He is an excellent defender in the full-court press. He puts great pressure on the ball when defending.

    Weaknesses: His shooting has range but needs polish. He's more of a streaky shooter. Needs to put on some muscles. His fearless game may cause him foul-troubles.

    I have actually seen a few of his games on the internet and from what i saw he has the quickness of Tony Parker and a nice jumper but still needs tons of work. He is one of the best on ball defenders i have ever laid eyes on he pressures the ball better than probably 99% of Pg's in the Nba. He is an amazing talent that still needs work but has All-star potential down the road. I see him as being a tony parker type player more than Manu he might take a couple years to get their but when he does it could be sweet.

    We'll have a better idea of his true potentiel contribution for the next season during the FIBA World Championships next month.

    Wha??? :confused:

    Stereotype much?

    This reminds me of the VW commercial, "Oh that's right. All you guys dance."

    i don't agree that his shooting needs to improve. i've seen his form. it's great.

    he needs to improve his footspeed. he is quick with ball movements, which helps him get past his defender and into the paint, but he doesn't outrun anyone.

    with speed will come better defensive play.

    Comments like this bothers me a little bit, I don't think he is even close, if he is THAT quick, he would'v been on a NBA team already.
