I'm glad someone signed him. I thought he was going to be drafted. He was a great player at West Virginia. I bet he will still be good in the NBA.

He's slow, he's unathletic and probably his only strength is that he can shoot the ball. Yeah, those players always amount to something successful in the NBA, right?

He's slow, he's unathletic


remember, he can work on these things :wink:

i still dont really think hel be any thing more than a 2nd or 3rd string backup, unless he develops good ball handling skills, quickness etc and becomes a complete mismatch for other post players, a la dirk

Yeah you can, but you can only increase your athleticism so much by training yourself.

The best he can become is a Matt Bonner type of guy that comes in and hit shots.

Pittsnogle, unlike Bonner, will always have good jersey sales though. His sales beat out Jerry West's jersey sales this year for West Virginia.
