Kyle Singler goes to Detroit

[Elite]

That he got drafted in the 2nd round in the worst draft of all-time makes him mediocre

I would ask what makes him better then mediocre in people's minds.

If he would of came out last season, he would of went in the first round...

 

[Elite]

Didn't come out last year though

 

[RipCity32]

That's beyond the point. He was considered a first round talent last season in a good draft.
Sometimes going back for a senior year hurts your stock, and it did in this case. But that doesn't mean the talent still isn't there.

What exactly makes him a first round talent? He has no post up game, his shot is okay, nothing to get excited about though, and he isn't going to be shutting anyone down defensively in the NBA..

He's got a nice shot, he has a high basketball IQ, he is an adequate defender, and he is a hard worker. Just like Jerekbo, has a motor that just keeps going.
I don't think any Pistons fan is expecting him to be a star in this league lol. But he is going to be a rotation player for us, and he is going to earn it.

yea it sucks that he didnt do too good this year.. i guess his numbers this year were about those of his freshman year..that sucks cause last year he did pretty good
