Rashard McCants Scouting Report

NBAMAN2006 · Post #1 » by **NBAMAN2006** » Tue Feb 19, 2008 6:55 am

I am a Blazer fan and I was thinking that McCants would be a very nice compliment to Roy. He seems like the type of shooter/combo guard who could play PG about 1/4th of the time while playing off the ball most times.

What/how would you describe his game? His defense? Offense? Do you think he would be a decent fit on a team like the Blazers? Can he create his own shot? Is he selfish? Would the 'good kids' on the overachieving Portland team help his 'attitude'?

Anything would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

not really blazers should stay well clear

he is my fave wolves but latley he is starting to get on my nerves

stupid fouls ,dumb turnovers , not listening to the coach

hes got so much talent and could be a good/great player but he wont reach it unless he gets hes act together

Rashad, not Rashard. I know its irrelevant anyway but still it bugs me, especially when Professional announcers cant even get his name right.

We played him at PG a couple months back for like 5-10 minutes in one game. He wasnt horrible, but he isnt a combo guard. He is a SG.

Shad is a pure SG, I wouldn't count on him playing any minutes at PG. His defense still needs some work. Only two qualifying guards in the league average more fouls per 40 than Shad. Turnovers are a problem. I think the attitude is overplayed on this board, but that doesn't mean it isn't an issue.

And I don't know what Portland has that would make the Wolves even think about giving up Shad. It'd probably have to be their 2008 1st.

Why do you think he would compliment Roy when you clearly know nothing about him?

Ben Gordan would be a better fit next to Roy.
