    Kyle Korver was drafted 51st...it seems like productive shooters just aren't "sexy" picks, so they often drop further than they should. I think a guy like Rashad Anderson will be the same way.

    Before it's all said and done - Steve Novak could very well end up being known as the white Larry Bird.

    Productive shooters are sexy picks - ray allen for example

    It's when they score 15 and the guy they're defending puts up 30 that their productive shooting doesn't seem so great.

    Hopefully Novak isn't the latter type in the NBA. ;)

    Ray Allen was seen as an explosive finisher coming out of college. Of course, defense will always help your chances.

    Novak biggest challenge in the NBA mightn't be defense but getting a shot off before fouling out.

    He will never get tired, not in his rookie season, not likely any time soon. I just hope his rearend doesn't get too tired sitting on JVG's bench.
