I honestly think Taylor will be a better player than Budinger. I hope they're both really good though!! (unless one gets traded/ cut - in which case I hope they're horrible).
IMO both are going to be doing good things in Rox uniforms. I doubt either will get cut due to how much was spent of the MLE on both, they could be packaged in a deal but its hard to say when that will be or if they will be included. They both have great athleticism and fell way below projected, esp. Budinger, in the draft. I won't name them superstars or even stars but they will be productive, especially now that they have a chance at looking at good minutes as rookies.
Solid list, although I was never blown away by the younger Griffin player. Always thought he kind of sucked.
Chase couldn't ask for a better situation to be in. His minutes are almost gift wrapped, so long as he works hard on improving his D and doesn't take too many ill advised shots.
Chase Budinger was projected as a late first rounder player, there is no any surprise if he is going to do well in NBA. The summer league data already indicate he will be good.
This is like the second time I've heard that Chase shot over 70% from 3-point land. Summer league or not, that is a huge accomplishment.
We've had sharp shooters.. Will Chase be the sharpshooter that can handle the rock and defend? I hope so.. Even if this season will be a wash.. I cant wait to see our young guys develop.. I think this is going to be an entertaining year..
With Shane and Trevor, on the roster, I would have to disagree. I think he'll get some spot mins. for his offense like Barry did, but I don't think he'll get alot of burn unless one of those two goes down with an injury.
Lol, why? He dominated a small conference and showed off his athleticism in draft camps. At UCF he was a fun player to watch, why don't you like his game? You think he's going to ballhog?
We have enough undersized power forwards. We needed scoring punch.......and we still do. But at least Chase and Jermaine look like they have the potential to bring that to the team.
I don't get why people compare him to Novak, he's nothing like him outside of shooting. Chase can put the ball to the floor and take it to the rim, shoot, pass and rebound while Novak was more of a 1 rounded player.
