NBA Comparison: Chauncey Billups

Matthew Maurer – 2/5/2007

Strengths: Big time competitor who wants the ball in crunchtime Has become a great team leader who has learned how to lead by example Rare point guard who can operate equally well in a half court set or up tempo offense Defensively Law shows good lateral quickness and reflexes to play passing lanes Decent court vision, capable of driving and dishing in traffic Great ball handler who uses his shifty quickness to get past most opposing defenders Once in the lane, Law effectively uses his body control and ability to finish with both hands Fundamentally sound player who plays the game with good poise and patience, rarely does Law force the action Has the ability to hit the pull up J from mid-range off the dribble Creative slasher who understands how to use the glass or floaters in the lane Has improved greatly from behind the three point line where he can now convert with regularity Unselfish player who will often look to get teammates involved first before attempting to shoot the ball Possesses a great basketball IQ. Law plays the game very efficient and intelligently Pushes the ball aggressively and effectively up the court

Weaknesses: Still learning how to play the point guard position from the stand point of improving his teammates and controlling the tempo of games Could stand to increase his upper body strength and add a few pounds to his frame Perimeter shooting despite improvement can still go through streakiness Settles at times for mid-range shots when he could drive to the basket and put pressure on the defense Lacks the explosive first step to get full separation from his defender Doesnt always apply the same intensity on defense that he shows on offense Can be a little turnover prone as he can telegraph his passes Still remains to be seen if he is able to make players around him better The mechanics in his shooting form are flawed and could need to be refined if he struggles in the NBA Lack of strength prevents him from finishing after contact … Defensively Law tends to gamble reaching for the ball and picks up quick fouls While greatly improved, Law can go through periods where his overall play is inconsistent
