Dumars: Knight Has Work Ethic, Ambition To Be Great
Jan 20, 2012 10:42 AM EST


Pistons general manager Joe Dumars has been impressed by what he has seen so far from Brandon Knight.

“What I’ve found out is this,” Joe Dumars said. “You pull him aside and talk to him about a weakness, something you have to improve on, you can best believe that the next time you see him on the court, he’s either working on it or you can see he’s trying to improve on it.

“That’s the true mark right there. When you talk to a young guy and say here’s a shortcoming you have, here’s a hole in your game, and you see him put hours and hours into it and see him start to improve on it right away, then you know this kid’s got something in him to be great. Because that’s all greatness is – continuing to get better and better and better and never being satisfied. Greg (Monroe) and Brandon both have that.

“I don’t think you can find that in any kind of testing or metrics or stat or anything else. He has to have it in him and those two guys have it in them.”

Had we not drafted Jaundice, we would've gotten Knight. And I know he's playing on a piss poor team, but he's putting up some solid numbers and looks like he's got a bright future ahead. Colangelo better not have fucked this up, Owl style.

I was on-the-record as saying that I wanted Knight, by the way. I still think he's going to be the best player out of that draft.

Me too. I was torn between him and Kemba, and it's looking like Kemba is going to turn into quite a solid baller too.

for the record i think i wanted a player named alex burks cause he could dunk, not sure how he's doing.

personally i kind of hope valiantanus is a huge bust cause that will mean more pt for davis.

At least we didn't get Kunter, who is apparently heading the direction of being a big ass bust:

I still think that Thabeet joke is one of the funniest that I've ever come up with, so I'll never stop using it. Also, whenever I hear his name, I sing it.
