He's a guard. He'll never produce enough offensive boards and tip-ins at the NBA level to keep him in the league. He needs to learn to defend and to shoot the ball.

he led his conference in scoring as well, its not like thats all he does.

plus our bigs are undersized, if we put him into the second unit at the 3 he could help huge on the offensive/defensive boards.

Yeah, of course the rebounding prowess is a positive for him, but it's not like it's something he can rely on, as he was a PF.

I agree with you on that cordobes, though I think he'll play more SF than SG, especially with the Celtics, and as such, he should be near the basket more often.

Giddens is so naif defensively. Every D-Leaguer looks like a savy 10 year NBA veteran next to him...

the defense of both teams is essentially 5 simultaneous 1on1 games with only 1 ball.
