Message: [QUOTE="Ghost, post: 1609960, member: 581"] Yeah, Wes was great because he could cover so much ground, and he was great at recovering to effect the shooter inside or out. Kid was simply an athletic freak. That being said, Mali already has a more well developed offensive game. Wes can't dribble very well - his handle is nowhere near where it needs to be (even now). Mali has 498 times the handle he had when he was at Cuse, and he has a nice stroke on the three, so if he can knock down threes consistently he'll be a more complete player on offense. At the very least he'll be far more diverse. On defense, I double he's ever approaching how effective Wes was in the zone. He should be fine though. He's a much better version of Kris Joseph IMO. He has some skills that are more akin to a two guard, so he could develop into the ISO type player that JB mistakenly seemed to think KJo was his Senior year if he sticks around for a bit. [/QUOTE]
