My opinion on the whole Ennis backup thing is:

1. I personally think he ends up being a backup PG... a guy that can fill in for stretches like this year's Shaun Livingston.
2. I think NBA teams tend to value spark plug guys off the bench (which I could see Shabazz, Carson, etc.) being moreso than a guy that simply comes off the bench and can manage the game.  When you come off the bench, you're generally playing with guys that can't really score, so being able to set up the offense isn't really all that helpful.

But yeah, I see him peaking as a low-level starter or solid backup PG.  I wouldn't take him in the top 20 personally, especially when guys like Shabazz, Carson, Micic, and Burton can be had in the 2nd round.  I'd go for guys like Stauskas, Harris, Hairston, Harrell, or Grant over him and just pick up one of the aforementioned PGs in the 2nd round.

It's too bad.  All the teams I think really make sense for him pick in the 25+ range.  But I think he could be a valuable guy if one of those teams trade up for him.
