I just read the Sports Guy's article on ESPN.com:
http://proxy.espn.go.com/espn/page2/blog/index?name=simmons&entryDate=20080324
and he's talking about Stephen Curry being a capable NBA player despite his small frame. I would probably agree with him, especially given what he's been doing this season, but I would also hope that he's implying that he'll be doing so in two years after he graduates from Davidson. I know he had said a while back that he would definitely return next year. Anybody got any thoughts on this?
And while we're at it, is Jason Richards an NBA-caliber player? I'm not saying he'll get drafted (though maybe??), but I could see him getting picked up and given an opportunity. He's a true point guard, who has proven he can play well against the big boys of the NCAA (averaged 14.8 PPG and 8.0 APG against UNC, Duke, UCLA, Gonzaga, and G-town this year) and true point guards are not easy to come by in the NBA. Steve Blake from Maryland has made a decent career for himself in the NBA, and I would see him as a similar build and playing style. Could Davidson have themselves their second and third NBA players since the 1970's? (Ozone Williams '96 got himself a ring with the Spurs)
