finally Alexey Shved has exploded in this eurobasket and is becoming what everyone expected few years ago, it took more time than expected but it’s been worth…

he is a 6’6 real PG, long and athletic with excellent handles and court vision, he attacks strong the basket and though he isn’t a good 3 point shooter, he’s got a really nice jumper. he once was tagged as the european penny hardaway and I tell that although keeping the distance he has a certain resemblance…

he was supposed to be drafted this year but finally decided to not enter the draft to be a free agent, and I think he made the right decision because now he’s gonna get a lot more money.

here is a play from this eurobasket to show that he’s pretty athletic: http://www.youtube.com/watch

It’s sad that he isn’t getting much playing time in CSKA, first he was stuck behind Holden and now they just got Milos Teodosic, who is one of the best euro PGs so I don’t see him average more than 20 minutes per game.

I think he’ll go to the nba in a couple of years and his game will flourish there because his game suits better there. I think it happens the same with ricky rubio whom is struggling really bad right now but will develop all his potiential in the nba…

 HE WOULD HAVE AT THE LEAST BEEN A LATE FIRST ROUNDER YEARS AGO IF CSKA MOSCOW GAVE HIM THE TIME HE DESERVED.

 McBased+1. Personally, I think all that held him back from EVEN BEING DRAFTED was CSKA along with his lack of bulk. I think he measured in at 159lbs , nmaybe 169. It was a low amount that’s for sure. But if Jiri Welsh, Sasha Vujacic, and Zoran Planinic can all pull first round with their lack of strength and lower skill lever compared to Shved, I see no reason why he wouldn’t.
