Re: Pruitt waived

Re: Pruitt waived
In college he was an awesome shooter, except when he was called on to play PG in which case he was not a very good shooter.
In the NBA, in limited minutes, he has been called on to play PG.
He can shoot. His form looks solid and he has purportedly been our best practice shooter. He can defend. The question is whether or not he will ever develop solid PG skills, otherwise he is an undersized SG (but I think he'd still be serviceable).

Everything I have heard about CELTIC practice shooting EFFECTIVENESS
says Eddie House and Ray Allen are TOPS,
with EVERYONE else a distant third.

Well, I thought I heard that somewhere here at some point in the past.
In any event, I can't find any validation, and Eddie/Ray are obviously really good shooters, so this might very well be right.

He's good at other things but obviously his poor shooting was a factor. I hope he can get minutes with a rebuilding team and can at least get a chance to prove himself.

Re: Pruitt waived
He was more of a SG then PG. I think he has the talent to make it but at this point I won't miss him. He had a few garbage time moments where he looked like a player but when given a glimmer of real burn he disappointed.
I'd like to see Hudson get a shot now.
