All you need to know is 1. Rockets have $1.4mil cash they have to spend or they lose it. 2. Les is willing to spend that cash on lottery tickets
It's a lazy comparison because they're both Italian SGs, but I don't think he's all that different from Belinelli. Shooter. Better ball-handler and isolation player than you might think. Not a great athlete, but crafty.
so Rockets own... Llull (one of top Spanish players) Papanikolaou (one of top Greek players) Gentile (top 5 italian players) Capela (top swiss player) If we dont win the NBA title, we are gunning for the European title.
To early to tell, maybe in 2 years time I will be able to answer this question better since both players will only be 2 more years away from impact
Gran bel giocatore considerato che lo abbiamo scelto alla 53; non sarà mai un buon difensore, ma potrebbe dare punti veloci dalla panca. Very good player considered we picked him at 53; he'll never be a good defender, but he could provide istant offense from the bench.
Very nice highlights mix of him scoring, definitely getting the Delfino vibe from him. The couple of problems I see that he might have is the whole 'kobe in europe, role player in nba' thing. He would have to adjust to a new role taking less shots, and not trying to do so much when trying to score. Then second thing is, he might be too slow or soft of a defender for him to be able to earn consistent playing time. But if he can adapt to his new role, and try his best on defense, I bet he'd fit right in as a Delfino-type scoring spark off the bench.
