I follow the SU guys in the NBA pretty closely so I generally try and catch/watch a bunch of their games every year.  I also happen to really like the NBA so its cool to see some other teams.

No question at all the JF was a bad fit for what Rambis was trying to do.  And in the few times it came up here, I defended JF all day long.  Deservedly so.  Would do the same today.  But there was also a part of this that was on JF (25% ?).  He would pound the ball and it would stall when it go to him or he would pretty consistently miss the open man.  When he was taking shots (and not trying to push up tempo), he would often take the second  or third best shot on the floor.

I really thought he was going to be the best recent SU pro (excluding Carmelo but including Hak)...although that is not hard to do...of all.  He also has trouble defending.  I'd like to see him in D'Antoni's system or a pure PnR offense.

Portland is def a good opportunity for him.  Hopefully his hip is fully healed because he's a guy who obviously needs his quickness.  I love JF and really hopes he makes it.

I love Wes too...but man is that turning out to be a bad scenario.  It's not a good year for the Cuse guys in the NBA.
