I've seen some video. He's okay i guess. I'd love to ship out Haywood and Etan, but unless that happens are needs are still on the perimeter at SG and SF.
We still have Blatche and Pecherov as players that either weren't with the team last year, or that didn't necessarily get significant minutes. Add those 2 with Haywood, Etan, Jamison, and Songaila, you have 6 players for 2 spots. Take that and the fact that Daniels isn't getting any younger, Taylor hasn't really done much of anything, Stevenson was a stopgap, and Hayes is pretty inconsistent, and it means I am now leaning toward wanting Thaddeus Young or Nick Young. I think their athleticism will help them fit in early in the Wizards type of system. They are both fairly tall and can probably handle SF as well as Jarvis can, which means we could hopefully then get JCN and have him be a 1/2 type player and one of the youngs be a 2/3 type. I've seen much more of Thaddeus Young than Nick Young, so I'll lean more toward him. Go ACC.
I am getting tired of not seeing guys we drafted play. It leaves too much uncertain. Lets see where we stand with Blatche, Pecherov, and hopefully JCN, so that we can start moving forward, rather than treading water it seems.
