I'm not sure what you really mean here.  I just think you're way off base thinking this new euro kid is getting real minutes ... 2nd guard off the bench?!?!

I honestly don't know what you have against Furphy but it's all good, we'll see what happens.

I don't care THAT much about our 11-15 players and neither of us know exactly where they are right now on Hurley's depth chart.  But my opinion is way more based on what we've heard and what we know right now than yours.  Yours is a totally random projection.

Generally speaking, a 15th man that commits at the last second to finish the roster isn't the 2nd guard off the bench,  Especially as compared to a top 100-ish, FIBA star who has some NBA scouts intrigued by his NBA draft potential in 2 years.

I'd go so far as to say that Furphy has a better chance of being a top 8 player than the euro has of being a top 11 player.

By the way, to combat your assist stats, whatever they mean to you, here's Finkelstein's scouting report:
[I]Furphy is a highly skilled and extremely cerebral facilitating type of wing. He's an ideal connector who thrives in offensive structure with his ability to shoot from long range, make reads, and high-level passes.[/I]
