NBA Playbook's Sebastian Pruiti looks at Devin Harris of the Nets. In effect it's a scouting report on Harris, with some weight behind it as Pruiti also operates a Nets blog for Truehoop. I found his criticisms of Harris somewhat telling in regards to his potential fit here in Portland: "On these plays Harris is really just launching his body into the paint, hoping for contact, and when he doesn’t get it he just flings the ball at the rim." "He’s quick, long, and has good foot speed, but he is just lazy in his technique. Instead of using his feet to beat offensive players, he reaches and goes in for steals way too much, this gets him caught flat-footed and is what gets him beat by slower points:" "In addition, the way the Nets’ seem to be building their roster focusing on an athletic team who can run. That would be great news for Devin, because he thrives in transition:" Anyway, go check out the video evidence and full article, if you're at all interested in one of the most mentioned PG trade targets.
