yeah, maybe...havent been able to see much of him since he left SU.  He was definitley one of those players who was 100% ready for the next level when he left, though...like, there was no doubt.

I think a big part of it - just generally and not sure how much it applies to Hughes  - is the hierarchy within a team is very very clearly defined in the NBA and some players are just not good at being part of a supporting cast...or not even that...but no teams will give them the lead roles...

last season, there were players that blew up but had been anonymous on previous teams...i cant remmebr the guy on the nets...

from my limited basketball playing experience...when I could dominate and have the ball in my hand it was totally diffrent from playing around players that ball hogged and shot everything...it can be hard to mkae an impression and impose yourself...idk...

imo the salary structure in the NBA is driven by economics and reflects the distribution of talent in the league less and less as the years pass...yet is still very determinative of individual player outcomes. like a straight jacket.

and i think the breaking point is coming when players like jokic 2nd rounder and the heat with no names make the finals as a result
