Re: Brandon Hunter

["Hsu" <hsu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What I find so strange about Hunter is the lack of negatives reported 
about him other than his height.  I've read nothing about him being slow, 
or a poor defender.  In fact, I've even read he can hit the mid-range 
jumper, and he scored second on the physical combine at the Chicago 
pre-draft camp behind Troy Bell.  Has anyone here actually seen the guy 
play, and can provide some insight on why he is so unlikely to be able to 
make it in the NBA?
