Re: C's Looking For Cheap Talent, And Perhaps A Young Player In The Draft

I've seen Silas Mills played.   And this guy can really kick ass!  He played
here in the Philippines as an import player and everybody says this guy
should be in the NBA.  he's so versatile offensively that he can post up,
slash, bang bodies, and shoot outside.  The questions in his game are his
defense and temper.  If I can remember he got into some fracas on and off
the court and also is a Technical foul collector.  Just too much intensity I
guess.

But if I could compare him to a player in the NBA now, I'd say his play is
so much similar to Shawn Marion (drives to the hoop strongly and 99% he'd
dunk it).  Though, he's suited for the 2 or 3 positions, I doubt he'd get
minutes behind Pierce and Griffin.
