which is exactly why I do not believe he is suited for the nba....thanks for proving my point even more!!! :D
So when did you guys become NBA scouts??? I think he will have a legitimate chance just like everyone else trying to get in, but if he can score, he can score.....

I believe that was the same line people said about Kevin Martin, a Western Carolina player from a few years back
I follow the nba more then I follow college sports...I know what kind of player can do well in the league and can't....I have been wrong before...the most recent was with Ben Gordon, but not to brag, normally I am right when it comes to players being successful or not in the nba.....

like i have said over and over again, I will admit it later if i am wrong

Kevin Martin has had a solid year, and he will last a while in the league...he won't be an all star...but he will be solid....his year this year surprised a lot of the "experts", but they are surprised if anybody in a small market does well....so that doesn't really even count....

That sounds similar to something RD said when he was at Bing U and had the 7 footer from Alaska Nick Billings.

Reggie could go to Europe and have a great professional career. I bet Brew does not make it 2 years overseas.

as in, he cant take the culture or he's not good enough? Because you would have to be insane to think he's not good enough. You don't even have to be that good.

I just think with the wife and 2 young kids knowing no one, they will get homesick. Also they seem to be high maintenance from what I hear. It is only an objective opinion, no fact.

Brew is good enough to play over there. I can see him playing in the ABA or similar semi-pro type ball for a while if he comes back to the US.

Ok class school is in session. Ok, The NBA doesn’t care if you play at a division 1 division II or a middle school as long as you can ball. Reggie has everything you need to be in the NBA IMO. I think he is a much better defender than you guys are giving him credit for since he plays in a gambling, high risk style offense. He is definitely quick enough and athletic enough to play in the league. The question mark will be his strength which is easy to remedy. Get in the gym and lift weights. He has the tools to offer an NBA team something they can use. By the way he handles the ball well enough to play the 1 at that level and is more than likely going to get that combo guard opportunity like Duhon at Chicago. I don’t think he will get drafted this season but I do think he has a good chance of getting drafted after a strong senior season. Also Duggar Baucom coached the afore mentioned Kevin Martin at Western Kentucky. Duggar thinks Reggie is special just like Kevin from what I understand. As far as NBA potential in the big south, Martin and Bradshaw will get a fair shot to make a team. Not sure if either will stick though. As far as Brew playing overseas, he will be a super star over there if they turn him loose. There is no money in the ABA or NBDL or whatever other minor league in America. Brew will have a 10 year career overseas.

SCAR....you show your pearls of wisdom by agreeing with me....even on the Kevin Martin reference :D

I know you know your stuff Scar....but I just still can't see him having much of an NBA career....he could, however, have one heck of a European career....

I didn't say he was D-Wade or that he was gonna be an all-star. The debate was over whether he was good enough to play in that league and I think that he will have an opportunity. He will probably eventually end up outside of the country at some point. My assessment was basically saying what he has to offer a team and why he will probably get a chance to play in the league even if it is for a short term....Now I need to hit him up for some tickets when he makes it. I guess I will just call Jason Allison or Duggar 8)
