And whatever you do, watch the video of Nocioni taking Garnett to the hole.
PS: He's white.
Fantasy Impact
I have no idea. If he still has the goatee, he could be th next Dirk or the next Toni... That puts him anywhere in the range of about 10 points if he's backing up Ben Gordon... Max of 18 if he's starting. Probably 4 rebounds and 4 assists. This is all pure conjecture, but at least I'm basing it on other European players... You've got Gordan Giricek, who's a little smaller, with 14, 5, 2.5, and 1 steal in his rookie year in the NBA for Orlando. Perhaps also, Aleksander Pavlovic, who averaged 5, 2, and 1 but only played 14 minutes for the Jazz (I should write more on him... perhaps later...)
So, really, I'm just excited that the Bulls have someone who totally schooled Kevin Garnett (even though he probably got it thrown right back in his face on the other end).
