I mean no one is going to give much for him, so he will have turned 2 lottery pick into maybe a second rounder or a veteran with a bad contract?

He has a better handle, is quicker and is more athletic. He can also play defense against point guards, where as Reddick can't play defense against point or shooting gaurds. Stoudamire is also more diverse offensivly have a look at some of the highlights of his occasional games where he gets really hot. I remember his rookie season he dropped sonething like 35 points on Chris Paul. He can hit some insane shots when he is feeling it Stoudamire is a bit more versatile than reddick is.

I'm an SU fan since birth, I gotta defend Hart. But the reason those backup guards stick around the league is because they can dribble, know how to run an offense in a decent manner, and know their place in the rotation. Those are all skills that they learned. Big guys are born big... so guys like m'benga (spl?) get contracts just for hitting their head on the door when they walk in the gym. Granted there are big men who are kept at the end of the bench because they have some desired skill (know how to rebound, leadership, lockerroom what-have-you, etc). Guys like Scot Pollard, PJ Brown, Othella Harrington, Pat Garrity (wide variety of talents there) are the big man version of the Jason harts of Vaughns of the NBA. Also, JJ blows. Enjoy Europe, it's a great place. @Amar.. I’m an SU fan since birth, I gotta defend Hart.
