Pete, do you feel that Kadji is a defensive liability? If he ever sees the floor in the NBA (where they play iso almost exclusively), I feel like he'll get abused by a good offensive player.
Yea, he will be eaten up by most players with an offensive pulse because he's extremely slow-footed. One of the biggest concerns with him from scouts is his lack of rebounding production throughout college for someone with his size and jumping ability, so he's going to have to show signs of improvement there as well.
After looking at the Cavs roster again, I think it's going to be really tough for him to make it with them. Bynum, Zeller, Thompson, Bennett, Varejao all in the backcourt and they just signed Earl Clark who kind of brings that big 3, stretch 4 dimension to the squad that Kadji could play. Obviously if he plays well, another team could pick him up for camp.
Also, Durand barely got any burn for the Spurs. Didn't expect him to have any chance with them, but I was hoping he would get a fair shot to show himself. Of DeQuan Jones can make the league as a pure defensive stopper, Durand should have an opportunity since he's not inept at the offensive end.
