Kendall Marshall in 2012

Kendall Marshall may indeed be projected as late first/early second by draft sites, and he may indeed be surrounded by major talent, and he may not be jumping out of the gym, but, man, when I watched him play last season, the freshman totally dominated on offense by setting up his teammates. Is elite passing considered an NBA skill?

I think the Jordan Farmer comparision is way off. he is a much better pure point guard. But agree not a lottery pick from the many games I saw last year. I would compare him to a very lite Jason Kidd.

Very lite, like what an ounce? ok I follow....
 
I've been saying Kendall Marshall on this board since before the ACC tournament. He's big, he's a lefty, and as soon as he took over the starting PG duties at UNC, they became a better TEAM. Harrison Barnes starting playing like he was supposed to, as the offense was more in control and the ball was being distributed. While I like Brandon Knight and wish he would have slipped to 12 for the Jazz, Kendall has the potential to be the bigger and better fit for Utah. His stock will rise and he will be a top 15 pick. I'd compare him closest to Deron Williams, as he is 6'3"/180. I don't think he has Deron's ballhandling, speed, or shooting yet, but he'll improve now that he'll be the full-time starter next NCAA season.
 
i dont understand all the love for a point guard that is lightning quick. History has shown that is not the type of point guard the jazz need. Now i do not know what system Corbin is going to use but if it is anything like the FLEX then a pass first point is more important. Actually people that can pass at every position is ideal.
 
Kendall Marshall = Marcus Williams from UConn....they're remarkably similar players. Both were very, very good college players, both are/were questionable NBA players.
