    Terrible handles, not very good passer, not a very good jumper. I could be wrong guys, and I hope I am bc I like the guy, but I just dont see him cutting it in the NBA. Who knows, maybe he will improve all those aspects of his game, on top of already being a freak athlete, and stick around in the league. We'll see...

    Terrible handles I would agree with, but I think he was a good passer, that isn't where his TO's came from. 3.5 assist from your SF/PF type player is pretty good. Jumper I thought was actually pretty good, 11th in FG% and 10th in 3PT% in the ACC, not bad imo. He does need to get a better handle on the ball when driving to the basket or receiving the pass. FT shooting is another major weakness. I think if he can work on those two areas and become more consistant then he will be ok as a role player.

    nah he can be a quality role player in the NBA. Hell, you play some D and occasionally hit a 3 and you're the next Bruce Bowen. Noel's got the tools to be more than that.

    He can dunk from the free throw line. Not a good jumper? But I agree, he'll be in Europe in two years. Great athlete though. Should've played footall.

    He has the athletic ability to play great defense and run the floor on the break. If he sticks, it will be due to defense, which is something that the NBA is lacking a lot of.

    I though the same thing about Duhon but he's still going strong.

    He did have 10 points and 10 reb in just his second summer league game.

    On a side note, May had 22 points, 7 reb and 6stl in his first summer league game, sure hope he can shake off the Shav and stay healthy.
