Ami, I wouldn't say Beverley can't create for others. His whole time in Ukraine was devoted to improving his point guard skills. He averaged about five assists a game, which is equivalent to about seven to eight assists here (given how stingy European leagues are about awarding assists). Also at the Eurocamp, he didn't commit a single turnover all camp while tearing the place apart. P. Ami,

Nice pick for the Lakers." I love how the triangle allows us to take PGs that would be worth little to other teams (because of a lack of PG skills) and turn them into solid players.

Streaky shooter, Fish. Almost no ability to create fro others, Fish. Good and quick defender (the quick part was in bygone days but still), Fish. Good athlete, Fish. Now if we find out he loves the PUJIT and has trouble finishing around the rim, I think we have our new PG, same as the old PG.

I think with us potentially moving Farmar he'll come over at some point. Some guys to look at 59 another Euro pg in 6'5 Nando De Colo or perhaps pf Ahmad Nivens 152 I bet he will eventually, the reason he chose to go to Ukraine instead of transfer to another school in lieu of the cheating, was to hone his pg skills, that’s according to Fran fraschilla.

How do these guys fall into San Antonio's lap? Tony Parker at 29? Ginobili late in the second? Now Blair here? This is a great pick for the Spurs. He might be able to start in San Antonio if Duncan plays the 5. This late in the draft, his knee issues aren't much of a risk; he's just a really cheap rebounder. The Spurs are getting an A+ tonight." BCR – Chad Ford shares your sentiments:
