I was one who didn't think he'd get a shot. I wasn't overly vocal about it, but, and I think I feel the way a lot of "doubters" did, it wasn't Georges ability we doubted, it's the NBA's history of looking at youth and "potential" as opposed to actually taking someone who proved they can play basketball.
I never thought Georges couldn't play in the NBA, in fact, it's quite the opposite, I just figured the powers that be in the NBA would rather pick some 1 and done bench player with potential as opposed to picking a guy who kind of breaks the mold of the typical NBA draft pick now a days.
Congrats Georges, I can't be more thrilled you are getting your shot.
I guess the only bad thing is this mean my daughter will make me take her to a Bulls game when the Pacers are in town.
