Re: Welcome Dion Waiters
Most ignorant argument in sports.
"Show me the last star player that _____"...didn't come out til after their senior year, came from this school, played poorly in summer league. Every player is a different person; for the life of me I cannot understand how someone doing it before has ANY bearing on the current player.
I remember some morons on here saying not to draft Kyrie because "Duke players never become NBA stars". So stupid.
Waiters struggled with his shot in summer league. A shooting slump is completely independent of competition, so saying that he should have dominated against this level of competition isn't entirely true. He got where he wanted to go and got past who he needed to, and that's what you should take away...his shot wasn't falling because of being out of shape and being in a slump and those clanks would have been there if he was being guarded by Michael Jordan or one of the DLeaguers who guarded him.
