    John Wall


    Looking back at the rookie season of John Wall, I must say that I am impressed. Wall has exhibited potential to be the NBA's best point guard sometime in the future where Wall, a 6-4 athletic point guard both possesses the Tunnel Vision and Floor Vision on which both traits are either exhibited by today's NBA Elite point guards as a distinctive trait.

    Tunnel Vision point guards are those who are always on the prawl for angles of attack. Names like Rose, Westbrook, Harris comes to mind. These players attack the lane with speed and agility on which is even more potent due to the deception of their speed. They can go moderately fast to explosively fast in an instance of recoil by changing the pace of their dribble and reverting to stronger and more powerful strides incoming towards the basket for the finish.

    Floor Vision players are natural playmakers who sees the court real time in moving bits and pieces consisting of teammates and opponents. These players keep their dribbling alive when slashing to the floor to exploit openings and lapses made by the defense in hopes of luring the defense's attention towards their own and freeing a teammate for the recipient of the pass. Players like Nash, Curry and Kidd comes to mind.

    Then there are point guards who combine the best of both worlds; both Tunnel Vision and Floor Vision into a omni-potent hybrid that merits something special in a point guard. No wonder Deron Williams and Chris Paul are still considered the best overall point guards in the NBA. Both players see the floor in converging tunnel and floor visions. John Wall has exhibited both traits and seems to be developing into that hybrid of Williams and Paul.

    I am interested on how Wall will progress next season.

                        Rashard Lewis said in an interview that he would like to contribute big to the team after the lockout. Lewis acknowledged that from the past seasons in Orlando, he was a catch and shoot player as well as a spot up shooter.

                        Lewis said he would try to play aggressively in the offense by posting up and attacking the rim much like his days with the defunct Seattle SuperSonics.
