After coming into the NBA with a TON of hype, Conley has seemingly failed to live up to the player that everyone thought the start point guard out of Ohio State would be. I'm not so sure that you can come close to calling him a bust. Let's take a look at his stats over the last couple seasons.
2010-2011: 13.7 PPG, 1.8 SPG, 6.5 APG, 3.1 RPG
2009-2010: 12.0 PPG, 1.4 SPG, 5.3 APG, 2.4 RPG
2008-2009: 10.9 PPG, 1.1 SPG, 4.3 APG, 3.4 RPG
So when you look at those stats, you realize that he's getting better in almost every category each year he plays. Granted, he's had a career that people weren't expecting for him. Many thought he'd come right into the league and be a top point guard within his first 3-4 seasons, and that hasn't happened, but he's leading his team well, playing good defense, and slowly raising his level of gameplay.
So all that being said, what do you guys think of Mike Conley? How good is this guy really?
Thoughts?
