Sura is a gritty physical hard working defensive minded (at least in the past) guard. I am not sure how that translates to Vujanic who averages like 1 rebound in european competition and is probably less athletic and definately smaller than Sura.
I would be surprised if Vujanic could ever get 3 straight double digit rebounding games. He will probably never have one.
Now I can hardly wait until Vujanic's first good game in a Phoenix uniform.
When you root for a bad team, you get to scrutinize the other teams at the bottom of the standings, and I've decided that I really like the Hawks, despite their lousy fans and ownership hassles. The players on the court play hard and seem to play unselfishly, too, which is impressive given that many of them will be free agents in a few days.
The Hawks really laid the wood on New Jersey tonight. Sura's triple-double wasn't even the most impressive line for them--Boris Diaw put up 10 assists in 26 minutes,
without a single shot attempt.
(He wound up with one point on a free throw.)
It would surprise me if the Hawks don't finish the season by beating Boston for the second time in a week--not that it will help the Suns, who will probably end on a four-game winning streak and wind up with the 7th or 8th overall pick. Still, it's the thought that counts, right?
Anyway, I hope they wind up getting a lucky bounce and pick up Dwight Howard as a reward for their players' efforts. It would be nice to see Terry Stotts get another year as the dean of EC coaches, and if they could hold onto their chemistry from this year by re-signing Stephen Jackson, Bobby Sura and maybe Przybilla, that would be even better...
