    IMO Downey was great in the passing lanes and anticipating passes and getting his steals that way but gambled a bit too much and when he guessed wrong it left our defense playing 4 on 5. He got his share of steals that way though, didn't he lead the SEC one year in SPG?

    Very much like Allen Iverson. I'm hoping this kid is more Aaron Craft. Defense isn't measured in steals, but putting the opposing playing in a position where he is uncomfortable. Aaron Craft is the absolute best I have seen at this in a while. Active hands, active feet, relentless pressure, puts a body on you. This is what I think of when I think of changing the dynamic of a game, strictly, with on ball defense.

    I've not seen Dickerson play before. Seemingly has some aptitude and upside, however, how often do project players pan out (can relate this to the influx of African players who come over, start late, great measureables and mobility, but not natural)

    Glass has basketball skills and is great motor. I like WGs comp to a more natural Slawson (let me clarify I think Slawson will be a good one, but the game needs to 'slow down' for him a bit). He has some perimeter skills be he will butter his bread 10-15 ft and in.

    Without having seen Dickerson I can't say who I would prefer. But I can say I certainly would not mind adding Glass.

    Based on another post by WG, we seem to be off of Glass and concentrating on Dickerson. (see Glass update from today)

    Thanks for responding.

    Can it be worse?

    That would be an accomplishment of sorts/
