I remember him now....I saw that NCAA 3 pt contest and thought he would be a nice NBA shooter. I was hoping we could draft him. His shot looked as natural as any great shooter we've seen in the NBA. He's just been in the wrong system, where they tried to make him something that he's not. With MDA and this Knicks team, he can really concentrate on just his natural skill of shooting, and not worry about going in the post or playing defense on bigger PF / C's...The problem with pure shooters is that they really have to work harder than most players on their shooting, because he will not get the volume attempts like most of our starters. So he must be instant offense!
