He's doing pretty good for a 2nd year player. There are no players in the NBA without flaws, there are maybe 10 that are true superstars. Surely, not even enough for one per team. For a guy picked at 34, he is doing just fine. He's outperformed his draft slot already. Any addition growth is gravy.
Comeback kid overstated his opinion that the Gleague is practically the same, but it is obvious there is NBA talent in the Gleague.
I also think that people don't realize how slim the margins are between making it and not making it in the NBA. It can come down to an injury to a better player in front of you in the rotation. Some guys don't get minutes for years. They are at a severe disadvantage to crappier players on crappier teams that have plenty of playing time.
We have this guy Zizic on our team shooting a high fg% and rebounding well. He has only had 1400 career minutes. Collin is closing in on 4000 and has been in the league a year less. We talk all about how Klove needs the guards to get him the ball, but what a about a young big man? I'm not saying he must be great, but he really hasn't had the opportunities others have had to grow their games, and that is true of a lot of Gleague guys too. He couldn't even get minutes when we hac no backup center and then he gets 15 and 12 in 25 min the other night because he played with a guy who knows how to play the pick and roll. It was a score every time with either Exum or Zizic getting the bucket. Nobody on the Wolves could stop that.
I think it is pretty obvious that guys are often misused and miscast and we are always surprised when a guy finds the right team/right system and he breaks out.
