I thought Shorter's size made him somewhat useful in handling switches. Didn't always work, but he managed to body up OK and hold his position.

Boti is very scathing though!

Shorter is the weakest point guard-specific import the 36ers have suited in the club’s history, despite much love from FOX-TV commentators enamoured with his outgoing personality.

An unreliable scorer unless going straight to the basket, and unable to contain any rival point guard – playing defence like a turnstile doesn’t really cut it - he must hold some sort of record as the import point guard most likely to pass the ball out-of-court on a last-play.

Brutal!

No we do not want Shorter back and full marks to Boti stating what most supporters think in regard to Shorters playing short comings and attitude.
If you weren't at GF in Melbourne you had no idea how embarrassing that muscle flex was especially the timing off it to all Sixers supporters there .
United supporters were in shock that someone who had created turnovers missed easy shots etc in a team losing badly would do that.

36ers should be looking at some of these guys to run the point in my opinion;

Shane Gibson
Ryan Boatright
Travis Trice

Speaking of Shorter, did anyone read Boti's recent write up about free agency etc? There's a pretty decent section where Boti is fairly critical of Shorter and doesn't seem overly keen to see him return. Article does say Shorter could be useful for the right price if Motum & Froling are a decent chance though. Maybe concedes he's just not the right fit either but defintely a pretty reasonable whack on him.

I was just a bit surprised by it but haven't really noticed any past criticism of Shorter by Boti.

Gee that would actually make a tonne of sense. Similar to player to Shorter but far better offensive skills.

yes he would be a good fit. Someone who can hit the 3 and make plays down the stretch.

Pretty sure he'd want to make NBA or G League soon though?

He would be a great signing for us but I think he might be a little too far out of our price range as we hope to bring back Childress & Moore too.

If you go to the official page: http://www.ausport.gov.au/ais/sports/basketball/athletes it only shows the girls. Where can I find the boys?
