Thanks for the link and update on these two players. I guess AD didn't make the changes in his game to make it to the NBA. Yes, I thought he had NBA potential but he had a lot of work to do to make himself NBA ready. Work on his perimeter game, shooting with range, playing defense and hitting the weights heavy.

[/quote]So what made you think he was NBA potential if you listed some of the most important attributes it takes to go to the next level.

Something you can't coach and that is scoring. If you could everyone would be "scorers". AD was a scorer at the college level but he wasn't a good shooter with range. 6'6 is tall for the SLC but not in the NBA and 190lbs isn't a NBA body.

What has Daniels been doing since he left Lamar? Playing in Europe?

[/quote]Gotcha! I know I watched Daniels play because the name sounds familiar, but can't remember his game.
