Obviously Almond is better than 99.99% of the world when it comes to playing basketball, so producing a Youtube clip or two isnt that hard. His shooting isnt the problem, its his below average athleticism. He'd murder in three point shootouts, but can he get that damn thing off in the NBA?

But then again Kyle Korver was murderous on the 76ers, but he seemed to die off in Utah. Perhaps their offensive schemes arent conducive to pure, spot up shooters. That said, Almond's complete and utter failure in Utah has me a bit pessimistic, but I think inviting him to our summer league is a great move. Almond has a wonderful specific talent and he deserves a second chance. This cat is tailor made for a Pringles upgrade.

I always thought the guy was an Allan Houston clone. He is very tall and strong SG like Houston and gets his shot off effortlessly from any angle or distance like Houston with the same great form and balance. I think he makes the Knicks and really is like an additional first round pick.

Hmm... where did I hear that one before?
