Are you referring to talent or more skill that he lacks? I think in terms of athletic ability he is not lacking. He has a '40 vertical and runs a 4.4 forty and you can see his quickness when he chooses to play defense all out. I am not arguing with the assesment though. He is not capable of playing at the NBA level because he is severly lacking in ball handling skills, shooting consistently, floor awareness, floor vision, passing ability, and decision making ability. I see him spending time his whole career in Europe.

I don't want to debate the definition of talent. He's too small to be anything but a point guard in the NBA and his skill set is not that of NBA point guard. He's loaded with athletic ability and can shoot, but those playing 2/3 tend to be about 5" taller and contribute some in rebounding.

Exactly, he does not have the skill set to succeed in the NBA. He will never, ever be a PG.

who gives a flying f*** whether he will play as a pro. How many steals did he have against LSU tuesday night. He played well in Lofton's absence and I hope he continues to improve his game.

apparently the gentleman that asked original question cares. If you think that's silly, simply avoid the thread and spend your time on those you deem worthwhile.

I care, I want to see him play more than just next year. Obviously, he is my favorite player.
