Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 4258052, member: 40"] I mean... yes and no. The difference is that in college, the opposition made Buddy the focal point, and did everything they could to stop him. On an NBA team, Buddy would be the fourth or fifth option, and would just have to get to spots within the structured offense and wait for kicks for wide open jumpers. I'm not saying that he's going to get drafted [but he might], or that he's a sure fire NBA player [but he certainly could be]. Also, when he's on the floor, it's not like he'd have Patrick Beverly on him -- those types of defenders will be focused on other players, and Buddy is a guy who can make them pay for daring him to shoot. That's why I think he's got a better than solid chance to make an NBA roster and stick as a role player. [/QUOTE]
