It's hard to get the knucklehead out of those guys and the chance that he turns out to be as good as he thinks he is is marginal. In the meantime you've got to put up with several seasons of stupid shots and dumb iso basketball while they figure things out, if they ever do. I'm out of patience. Give me a polished shooter or at least a scorer with more of track record or different profile and some length. And, honestly, for all anyone knows that guy may turn out to be the BPA anyway...
