    No.... Prig's MUCH better than Terry I think. I don't see Terry handling the ball better than Prig's.

    I like it.

    It becomes about context. Josh Smith has shown that.

    It could be argued that as far as PG mentality, Beverly can, potentially, learn from him and not the other way around.

    I won't be surprised if he gets playing time after some practice with the team. His maturity (i.e., his many years experience in Europe and here) is of value. I suspect he will help offensive efficiency when he is on the floor. Of course, he can't make open shots for players, but he can try to get them the best open shots and may have a better recognition of plays developing off player movement, which encourages the same. A better floor general who doesn't try to exceed his capabilities. Every cast of characters (new teammates) for a PG is like a different canvas to paint on. He will need some time to adjust to the pallete.

    I also won't be surprised if he has a Troy Daniels moment or two before the season is over. In tight games and in the playoffs, that is all that he has to provide to make a difference. With limited minutes he might seem like a "specialist." I think there is more there. Not a Chris Paul... but...
