Message: [QUOTE="Fishy, post: 5260821, member: 38"] AK is a fringe draft pick at this point; this past year did nothing to help his draft stock. The make up of the team hurt his game - he’s best when he’s in motion and we had a two-pronged effort in keeping him from doing that this year. First, we really did not have a natural point guard to keep things moving and second, we had a bunch of guys who were spot up shooters who would become anchored in place which meant Alex had to stop moving. (Liam often settled in the right corner which would often bring most of the motion to a halt.) I am not sold on him as an NBA player - I think he might be [I]just barely[/I] below that level, but I do think there’s a chance that next year’s team, with two good guards and Solo’s progress, really could free Alex up and let him be more of the player who drew NBA attention to start with. Plus, he’d likely make more money here next year. [/QUOTE]
