Message: [QUOTE="Hunt for 7, post: 5206986, member: 12414"] I still think we have to give Nowell a chance. I watched his high school film and he is quicker than what we have seen. His body will be an advantage next year when he goes to the hoop. He will learn to make contact and get into the bigger players when he drives. What I liked about him most was his court vision and not telegraphing passes. The pass to Alex he moved his defenders hands with a ball/head fake to create space to make that pass. It is a small thing but I really see him being able to get the ball to Reed in the post. He will learn that he does not have to get anll the way to the basket when he beats his man as evidenced in sequence where he was at the foul line after beating his man and he saw two passes in advance by getting the ball to Liam who then got it to Ball for an open three. He saw all that when he made the first pass or at least it seemed clear to me he did. He definitely sees the court. Not saying he is Marcus Williams but I think he will be an above average passer and an above average guard at the college level. Clearly his length or lack thereof will create obstacles but I see him being an effective player during his time in college. [/QUOTE]
