    Im STOKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    http://www.nbadraft.net/admincp/profiles/nicolasbatum.html
    Strengths: Very long and versatile wing player … Explosive leaper possessing a nice first step … Extremely quick off the floor, especially on his second and third jumps … His big strides allow him to run the floor with the best of them and his length allows him to finish on difficult drives … Is most effective shooting one or two dribble pull ups from midrange … A high release and great elevation make it difficult to contest his shot … His moves out of the triple threat are hard to defend because his jabs are so long and they get the defenders off balance with regularity … Stays within himself, rarely getting out of his element to force plays … Possesses a great feel for the game and sees the floor exceptionally well, especially for a player his age … Delivers well timed and precise passes showing off his mature decision making … Defensively, has all the tools to become great … A player possessing his type of length and athleticism to go along with great lateral foot speed is a rarity … Could eventually become a defender capable of guarding all 5 positions on the floor …

    Why not Chris Douglas-Roberts?!? :confused: :confused:

    Can anyone enlighten me on Nicolas Batum, please?

    ...It's extremely early, but I'm not sure I understand declining on Douglas-Roberts, at this point...

    Batum. I'm surprised! Let's hope he is healthy and can show us the upside which he can bring with time.

    I wonder if we're trading the pick. Regardless, I'm glad he's not going to the Spurs.
