I talked to Mcnamara and he said the pelicans don't want him because of Monty and Dell pushing Rivers at PG. Hopefully he is wrong.

McNamara knows not a goddamned thing. Nor does anyone outside of the Pel Inner circle.

Anyway...

If we are following the Spurs model, he's our Euro PG.

Schroeder = Parker
Vasquez = Manu
Davis = Duncan

Rondo and CP are his favorites, and he does remind me of Rondo a lot, except with a much better offensive game (at similar points in their ages).

yeah and he is in love with Saric. Saric is great and all but he reminds me of every other euro player who gets drafted and either doesn't even go to the nba or just doesnt pan out.

If you could get Burke or Shroeder, couldn't you just move Rivers to the 2?

I'd rather roll the dice on this kid than Saric or Len.

I was talking with my friend who played vs him in that game and he said he was one of the fastest and quickest people he's ever had to guard

Yea and people say he isnt a passer, which my be, but at that nike summit game he was quite crafty with his passing skills.

I don't think Schroeder's offense is going to be the issue.

It's more a question of "Can a 168-pound guard bulk up enough to play defense in the NBA?"

Exactly and the rondo compassionate aren't accurate to me in that rondo has an unreal wingspan that helps him tremendously while Schroeder doesn't and is shorter

Schroeder's wingspan is 1.75" shorter than Rondo's

That's still ridiculous

I think Brandon Jennings is only 169lbs.

He does look puny in that video tho. And that's going against high schoolers.

And Jennings' ratings, per 82 Games, look godawful.

They may be a bit skewed, as he rarely left the court, but the team performed much better when he was off the court than when he was on it.

This point is pretty useless cause the majority of the people he's playing against in that game will be in the nba and are nba sized. For example, the pg guarding him in that game will be one of the biggests pgs in the nba when he gets there
