only thing that concerns me is his shooting. but i think hell get a lot of playing time since he plays good D.
One thing i didn't like was his charges. Most of those would have been a blocking foul in the NBA. Also, I really don't like floppers but i guess it wouldn't hurt to have somebody flopping for you. It'll be a different feeling to have a flopped call actually go our way.
(besides those 8 points handed to him by BAD U.S. defense -2 fouls on 3's and a goaltend); Gotta like what he did on the floor. A Coast to coast lay-in, aggressive drives to the rim, crisp passing and tough defense. Which are big needs at our guard positions.
Nice penetration,good defender,poor shooter....If our team is heathy,i dont think Span can got a lot of opportunity in our team.even we got so many guards here,the backcourt is still our weakpoint,that's pathetic....
If watching V-Span taking charges was bothering you I can't wait to see your reaction once you get a steady dose of Battier. You aint seen nothing yet!
I think V-Span will be a great addition to this team. We need a Mario Elie/Sura type guy on the team. Yes, he is not a good shooter but I think he can improve his shooting. But we will definitely need his toughness on this team. Please keep in mind T-MAC and Yao will have the most touches so we really don't need his shooting.
The more I watch this, the more excited I am about getting him. He looks like he has the ability to catch and shoot which is something we needed last year. He also seems to have a ready for the nba defensive eye. He's got the skills. I am all for him starting at the two.
