Just from the looks of it, Nate could be the greatest player at 5-7 I've ever seen, with the exception of maybe Michael Adams. I think at the very least, he has Spud Webb potential. And IMO, he's better talent-wise than Earl Boykins is now...
Very impressed by that pick so far...

Spud Web nothing. Spud was a skinny guy that could fly. Nate is a football player. He's a nasty defensive back that plays hoops like he's on the grid iron.
did you ever watch Spud?? That guy was more than just a dunk or two. He could break down defenses, and played bigger on D than his size would suggest. He was a pest. That said, I think Nate will, in the long run, be BETTER, simply b/c he's a more physical player.
Only time will tell, but he could end up being the steal of this draft, along /w/ Green and Granger...
DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure.
And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.
