Watching the Bulls game you can see how he will be effective in this league. He just needs to pick his spots. Hes great at driving between defenders on the P&R, hes pretty darn quick albeit not elite, but those shots he made tonight had him looking like he belongs.
Just has to cut down on the bad shots, get some more confidence (he did look a little humbled out there compared to his pre-draft swagger) and I'm sure it'll happen for him before the middle of the year. I think the kid will be a stud by the time we have to extend him, this draft was a success for the Hornets IMO. Rivers will turn out just as good as Beal / Waiters / Lamb.
