Who care about Francis? Didn't he win only one playoff game in his career? lol Evans got his stats...yay. But I don't see him being a legit all-star caliber player. A solid starter perhaps on a good team.
I don't watch him nearly enough except for the last few games at the end of the season, but from what I saw I'm not convinced he'll reach that superstar status. I think he'll be one of those above average allstar-level player who won't quite make it to the next tier. Especially if he's stuck in a mediocre team for the majority of his career. Time will tell I guess. I also thought Yao was gonna be the awesomest thing evarr... but then...
as someone here pointed out earlier, BJ shot 37%, even TMac would laugh at that! Evans shot 45.8% while being the main man on his team. BJ had Salmons, Stack & Bogut on his team. He wasn't the focal point of his team in terms of scoring, and he still found a way to score 20+ along with the assists & rbs with little to no help. Also it's not like the kings started telling him to throw it up anytime you got the ball at the end of the year, he took more shots per game in Nov & Dec then he did at the end of the year!
Bogut's been doing very well since before BJ came to town. There were just a lot of problems before: 1. Poor pg play (Luke Ridnour ftw!) 2. Bad coaching 3. 60% of possessions went to Redd and 30% went to Mo Williams To say Bogut has been doing nothing all this time and to pin his "emergence" on a rookie pg like Jennings is ridiculous. Jennings has been really good but Bogut is their MVP.
Yep, your PG shooting 37% will have your C scoring better, blocking more shots and anchoring your teams defense.
