well said TucsonDevil, Joe and Eric.
I had a lurking suspicion the Suns might include this years pick but when Denver passed on Garcia the second time I thought the Suns would grab him and run, if they were waiting to see who fell. Then there was 30 seconds of excitement when I thought we'd get to see if Nate would push our fast break up another notch.
What really irritates me more than the draft is the fact that the Suns still are looking for Barbosa to be our backup PG. If they'd forget about that there's a fair chance Leandro would become a passable backup two - he's clearly got a confidence problem that he didn't have when he came here. And putting pressure on him by expecting him to do something he can't, namely play PG in the Suns offense, is probably what caused it. He passes well enough I guess, but he has tunnel court vision and I don't think that's something many people improve with practice - put him in a very structured offense and he might be okay.
