    gotta be better than luther, the only thing luther can do really is to shoot the 3, he'd be good playing for boston or cleveland.

    white brings different aspects to the game, a legit 2 guard with size and the hops to go with it. looking forward to it. :cool:

    yea I was about to say, this better not be another Gerald Green situation
    Green got me excited, made me think he was going to be T-Mac's successor.

    White is 26 years old too.

    I like the fact that, with the exception to Ron Ron, Battier, and Barry, Houston has developed a team with a bunch of newbies/unknowns.

    White is also famous for his defense.

    With the "and?" I was saying I'm tired of typical players who can score and dunk but don't know how to play an offense. Yuo can be very good 1on1, but if want contribute on a winner team you must read the offense. A windmill is beautiful but useless on a basketball game. At least, if he can play defense and is an acceptable shooter, could be good.

    I was just about to go to an Anaheim Arsenals game to see the James White/Malick Badiane tandem :p I'll hold on to that 8 dollars now and see if he's added to the big club

    free throw dunks, highlights, defense, 26ppg, etc......y'all are focusing on the wrong thing, the SPURS drafted him, that means he's gotta be more than hype, possibly just needs to be in the right situation.

    I thought Brent Barry picked one up with the Spurs. I could be mistaken though. He may have signed the year after they won their last championship?
