    Graham had some problems being very foul-prone in college when he got the minutes, if I remember right..

    I think his upside will be Jim Jackson without the "nobody loves me attitude". I don't think that Mario Ellie would be a bad comparison if Stevie had Super Mario's mental toughness.

    DD said earlier that JVG is not the type of coach to instill confidence in a player much like Eddie Sutton. In fact I have never though about it much but they (Eddie and JVG) have some simular qualities except that Eddie doen't have the small man complex. Anyway, I hope that Stevie is tougher (mentally) than I think but I have my doubts, what I don't doubt is that he has all the ability to be an NBA starter.

    :rolleyes:

    DD, I'm sorry Nachbar didn't turn out to be a star here. I really am. But it's time to move on and stop blaming JVG because he sucks.

    "Nachbar was a rookie and JVG destroyed his confidence! He never plays rookies! He can't coach rookies!"

    Luther Head is inserted into the starting lineup, and becomes a key contributor for us.

    "Well... Luther already had confidence, so JVG couldn't destroy it! Ya!"
