In football you can get away with a few reaches and hope they pan out in three years. You do that in hoops and you see the unemployment line. I'm not a stargazer though. I hope the kid turns out to be Michael Jordan.
If this guy can play a 10 minute a night role, he's a win at this point. Cuonzo needs to focus on getting serviceable bench players now. Impact players will have to wait until 2013 and 2014. If he ends up having added 4 guys who can play double digit quality minutes per night out of his first two classes, he'll have done a great job.
