HE came back and we lost 6 in a row before last nite. He is a great fantasy stat machine.
He can't concentrate. He had the task of making the inbounds pass last nite at the end of the game and after the time out huddle he was just looking around, not concnetrating, chatting with someone on the press table, and could make the inbounds play. We thought MDA just wanted to see how the defense was setting up, or Nay Nate is really out of it.
I don't know his trade value, but in the mold of Mugsy Bogues and spud web, as soon as these guys loose a step they are really done. They rely so much on there athletic ability to overcome chronic vertical deficency (height) they lose too much of their game.
I like him, and like him off the bench, but if its between him and Dlee you keep the double-double machine and let him keep working on that midrange jumper.
Nate is perhaps one of the best athletes in the league and fun to watch when he is clicking. Im just not sure other than shooting and making highlight reels (hey, its important to sell the fun factor also) he has enough game to elevate the team in the next few years. Can you ever really count on Nay nate when the chips are on the table???
