Lots of these guys find themselves without a position in the NBA, but they're lacking something. A few come to mind: None of the guys listed can shoot. I think tweeners that can't shoot is the biggest problem. |

Lots of these guys find themselves without a position in the NBA, but they're lacking something. A few come to mind: It usually comes down to two things been these guys. The first one is fit. Marvin Williams was probably best suited as a stretch four, but they had Josh Smith. Two talented players who didn't fit. The second thing is the player's IQ. Derrick Williams, Anthony Randolph, Mr. Walking Buckets...those guys clearly have the talent to play in the NBA. But they weren't smart enough to use their strengths to cover their weaknesses, like a Paul Milsap did. I haven't closed the book on Winslow or Gilchrist, but you knew coming in they couldn't shoot. They lived up to everything else. It's part of the game for every Kahwi, there are guys who won't be able to get their shot down. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.
