That's why there's an NBA forum.
This aussie PG, known for his smart play and ball handling, coming straight from college is making huge impact for the cavs. His defence is very tenacious and forced beal 3-13 shooting. Watch out for him. He got 28 minutes last night against the wizs, ALREADY a lot of minutes, because of his contagious energy and hustle, which would definitely help cavs lack lustre passion.
look at that defence play at 3:08
also he was captain for st marys, look how plays with so much heart!

Looks as annoying to play against as Patrick Beverley tbh...
and considering he's only 22 and fresh from college, imagine 2 years from now???
his a real basketballer and got good fundamentals of a PG. team first mentality!!
Do you guys also know anyone that plays that pesky kinda defence besides patty and him?
I liked how he played alongside Mills in the Olympics. Patty was the undersized SG and he was the bigger point, ha.
i wanted him with our last pick last draft
My personal opinion is that he won't succeed at the NBA level, but he seems to be impressing Mike Brown with his tenacious defense.
why he wont succeed??
Stick with the Aussies mate. Delly has surprised me.
Inconsistent shooting, slow shooting mechanics, lack of athleticism or speed. Depends on how well he makes use of his high bball iq, passing and defense.
He will succeed as a backup. He effecient, an excellent leader and team player, good with the ball and has shown some good shot selection. OK he's not a good athlete, but then there are plenty of good athlete's who are busts and do not last long.
If he can do that for 20 minutes a night for 82 games, he has a place in this league. However, the kind of foot speed on defense most likely disappears by the early 30's. Most great wing defenders stayed elite because of their length, not speed.
Oh well. First step is earning his place this year by continuing what he did against Beal the rest of the season. One of my favorite college players ever, will watch out for him.

Also, in before Delly holds Green and Manu to less than 6 points combined on Saturday
HAHAHA, id love to see delly defend patty!!! that would be wicked!!
and vice versa
Brown is only playing him to piss of and show up all of the worthless, lazy, ty at ude lottery picks on his team.
He plays as if his life depends on every possession. Coach Brown been using him in that smaller unit. The Cavs ball movement and spacing is much improved with him in. Kyrie has benefited from Delly setting some screens. He can rebound better than some 6'6 6'7 guys, probably from playing Aussie Rules.
The kids smart as it was pointed out many times next door in the Think Tank. We had our chances to get him.
