Simon Dwight would be your classic tweener in the NBA.  Hw would not have
the size or strength to enforce his style of game on the 4/5s of the
Association and would not be quick enough to guard 3s.  In the NBL, he works
great and is a true enforcer of the league.

>, Drmic/Sam MacKinnon

Slammin Sam must develop his outside game to have a shot at the NBA.  For
our league he has a quick first step and can really attack the rim, but his
outside game is still too weak for NBA 2s to guard him close enough to get
to the hole.  Still, he has been working hard on this.  I think Drmic has a
better shot in the long run, a more versitile 2.

>possibly getting drafted

Trahair can be easilly intimidated in our leaugue let alone the Show.  Once
he gets blocked or has his pocket picked once he takes nothing but totally
open jumpers or free throws.  And his D stinks worse than Andrew Gazes ever
did.  
Zauner needs a lot of work, but then again so does Ben Pep.  But Pep has the
size their to help him along.
