While Miles is definitely quicker up and down the floor, I wouldnt exactly say Wilcox is 10x slower.
Wilcox has excellent speed up and down the floor. In those workouts before the draft, I believe he turned in a Top 5 time up the court(might have been the 3/4 court). And that included guards, and this kid is a PF.
In some of the articles from the Knicks workouts and other places, Wilcox's speed up the court has been raved about.
So while he isn't faster or as fast as Miles, he's still got fantastic speed up the court.
And a little note on the people who think he can play some SF, since I am one of them. He's only going to play spot minutes there at best. Odom is going to be pushing 35 minutes at the 3 spot, and we have Corey behind him. Wilcox would only play it in spots. And I do think he could do it.
He's more athletic, agile, and he's quicker than SF's like Lamond Murray, so he could hang for a couple minutes IMO.
