Cojo vs. Nate

[Johnsyounger]

Was watching Bulls game on Sunday. Would you rather have Nate Robinson or Cojo running back up for TP today?? I couldn't decide.

I would take Joseph, he looks like a better all around point and plays on both ends. Nate is exciting but I don't want him running the offense. Plus the dude is like 5'9.

Nate, sometimes you need excitement off the bench. Plus his size has never been in question when it comes to his defense. Nate is swhat we want Mills to be but only with mad hops.

Nate is an experienced player with no upside and limited size and a reputation for being a showboater. Cojo is in year 2, has little experience in the NBA, but has the physical tools to be better than Nate. If the Spurs need a backup point guard this year, Nate may be the better choice, just because he has experience and you know what you are going to get with his play and you can game plan for the fact that he is undersized.

Going forward, though, you'd take Cojo because he has much greater upside. He doesn't have Nate's speed or jumping ability, but he's got better height and strength and probably can shoot as well as Nate, if not better. We just have a limited sample size in what Cojo can do. But as with any year 2 player, you have to take a chance with his upside.
