A guy that works with me is from Illinois, he knew about Frank williams before he was in college and was telling me how good this kid will be, now he like you, are telling me about another proeria Ill. product in Livingston. He brought in some articles and he is high on Livingston. Now I know a while back you were talking about getting this kid if you can, even if it meant getting rid of williams, and I thought you were crazy, but my co-worker is very high on livingston, he said he plays point but can turn into a nice SG, once he develops his jumper but he has a lot of all around skills... Do you think he will be a late 1st rounder or do you think this kid has lottery potential?

Livingston's one of the best pure passers I've ever seen. People say he's the next Penny Hardaway/Magic Johnson, as he's 6'7" but a pure point.

No way he falls past the 5th pick.

I saw him 3 times and my conclusion is that I would pass with a high pick. His frame is underwhelming and he is NO Penny Hardaway IMHO. If he slipped past players that I liked into the teens he would be a nice risk play there IMHO.

Livingston has some of the best raw talent I have ever seen from a player, period. However, he still needs a lot of work on his game (especially his jumpshot). I honestly think this kid is gonna be very good in a couple of years (he is such a pure passer). If I had a top 10 pick and I could use a PG then I would definitely take a gamble on Livingston, IMO he is gonna be a very good PG in this league. I doubt that he drops past the 10th pick.

Being a playground legend doesn't mean shyat if you are in the NBA. All you need is to have sick moves that you will rarely be allowed to do, in the NBA, and some verticle leaping ability, so you can do cool dunks and blocked shots. You also have to know how to dance a little. The NBA is REAL BASKETBALL. Most of those street legends don't amound to anything, if they make the NBA.
