Nothing ever wrong with draft and stashes in round 2. Unfortunately, this guy just didn't pan out as an NBA-worthy.
Yeah, 50 and lower are obvious cases for this. There are very few Thomases in the draft, but there are a decent number of foreign guys who end up being real players after a few years and whose rights are own by random teams. Look at Tomic for an example of a guy who'd be on an NBA roster right now had he not been drafted by Denver almost a decade ago.
Richards isn't in Tomic's level, though, as I'm sure you'd agree.
What I'm saying is that I'd rather buy a lottery ticket on guys like Richards and Dangubic hoping they become Tomices or Bjelicas rather than getting Denmons or DeShaun Thomases.
Oh yeah, same here.
OP with the bads per par
did u peep the game bruh.............richards is an elite big man 3 pt shooter..............fyi richards plays tomorrow on espn 2............tune in to see the future

Lovely thread.

Btb, James Gist is on the opposing team.
richards reaches finals...........final chance to watch him play is tuesday.............spurs fans this is a rare chance to watch a stash pick play on national tv dont miss out he will be brought over soon................
Sad thing is, half ST could play in this tournament. Good for Richards.
Who else would we need on the All-"Might-Have-Been" Spurs team? I'm only going to count players who never actually appeared in a regular season or playoff game for the Spurs.
Scola would be the team captain. Most of the rest would be stashees that never made it over: Javtokas, Spanoulis, Printezis. Add in Bourousis, why not. I must be missing some obvious ones.
James White!!!! actually played a few games in 2006-7, or else he'd be on the list.
I think I spy bluebellmaniac watching in the front row, off left.
his play in the tournament got him signed...................if u listened to playblair advice & watched him in the tournament the signing isnt surprising..............
Lol, I think I might've been the only (other?) person posting in this thread who actually watched that tourney. He had one good half and the just sort of sucked the life out of his team after that. Dude can go on a run where he can score easily, but then he will shoot his team out of the game and loaf around on the other end. He's like a distilled version of Murray's weaknesses.
I think there's talent there, but this is WAY too late. Should've been on the roster six years ago. Think he would be at least a Tolliver-like journeyman if he wasn't such a putz.
Thanks for the review. I didn't have the least bit of interest on him. I do think 25 starts to be too old to take bad habits out from someone. (There's hope for Murray yet who is way younger and will have to earn playing time the hard way).
I am wary of bigs specially, things like boxing out and rotations, fundamentals of that nature are learned early. Requires a coach getting on someone's arse every time they do something incorrectly until they get it.
If he could learn to play a little dirty, he could be Rasheed Wallace lite.
