Mike Conley Jr.

Can someone give me a report on his progress so far? I'm particulary interested in his ability to create for others, defend and get to the basket.

dissapointed as fas as i watched this season but with ilusion for the future. Errybody know he has a lot of potential but not as allstar, I see him as 15points 8assist or sth like that.

Time to time.

injuries and being on a sucky team have hurt him, but he'll be a good PG.

I was watching TJ Ford last night, and the comparisons between him and Conley seem more apt all the time-heck, they both even wear #11 :)

not that Conley is where Ford is now by any stretch, but I think that's where he could be headed if injuries don't hold him back too much...

I hope he'll be better than him. He's a bit taller and longer, so I think he could end up being better defender than him. I also hope he'll be the better playmaker of the two.

Conley also has the potential to be a better shooter....
