2003 NBA Draft

2003 Scouting Report:
Strengths: Very athletic player who can explode to the basket and dunk with authority ... Excels in the open court where he has the ability to finish in a number of ways including reverse lay-ups, switching hands, or by drawing contact... Capable ball handler that can play point guard for a short period of time as Bogans is a solid post passer... Intelligent player who has a solid grasp of the fundamentals ... Has an NBA ready body strong enough to take a hit in the lane and finish a play ... Has 3-point range on his jumper... Good rebounder due to his leaping ability ... Competitive player who wants the ball in his hands when the game is on the line ... Has shown leadership qualities at times but hasn't always displayed them due to his deferring of Tayshaun Prince ... Despite last year's slump, Bogan's work ethic should never be questioned ... Is a solid positional defender who does a good job of staying in front of his man ... Has the ability, when he gets hot, to take over a game ...
Weakness: When he is struggling with his jumper, his confidence has a tendency to wavier... Should concentrate on getting himself to be a better team player, often he felt the need to take games over all by himself... Mechanics on his jumpshot should be seriously tweaked as his jumper has a slow setup which goes from his waist to over his head ... Height, although he is listed at 6-5, on appearance he looks to be 6-4 so one has to wonder how this will effect his play against the bigger shooting guards of the NBA ... Focus wasn't all that great last season as he struggled to find a rhythm ... Has yet to develop a consistent mid-range game which is a must for a shooting guard ... Shot selection isn't all that great as he tends to fall in love with shooting from the outside when it could be to his advantage to drive to the basket... Seems to struggle at times when he is playing in a half court offense as opposed to an open court offense ... Looks as though he might be a step slow in the NBA as his foot-speed is not the best...

2003 Scouting Report:
Strengths: Possesses a great understanding of the game ... Really looks to get teammates involved in the offense ... Has legitimate three point range on his jumper ... Solid shooter of the dribble from mid-range ... After Ridnour breaks down the defense on his penetration, he is a threat to dish off to open teammates ... Shows the kind of court vision that enables him to be a creative passer ... Great free throw shooter ... Has all the qualities that point guards need: PG mentality, court awareness, desire and leadership ... Quality ball handler who can take opposing guards off the dribble ... Really looks to push the ball up the court to ensure fast break opportunities for his team ... Defensively he is blessed with quick hands and the savvy to play the passing lanes for easy steals ... Is a gym rat who has the kind of desire and work ethic coaches love ... Excels in an up tempo offense where his flashiness and creativity merge ... When his jumper is falling he can put a great deal of pressure on the opposing defense ...
Weakness: Will have to improve on getting his upper body strengthened ... Athletically he is not the possessor of blinding quickness or leaping ability ... Some have questioned Ridnour toughness ... Lacks the explosiveness needed to consistently penetrate to the basket at will ... Decision making isn't always the best as he will tend to make the overly flashy play which usually leads to turnovers ... Defensively Ridnour struggles to guard physical point guards, especially those with post up abilities ... Mid-range shooting isn't as consistent as one would like ... Many have questioned his toughness because there have been times where he's been bullied and did not react well to the physical contact ... Defensively his overall lateral quickness will have to be improved upon ... His lack of strength tends to work against him as he doesn't always finish after contact in the lane...

2003 Scouting Report:
Strengths: Back to the basket moves are highly advanced ... Runs the court very well for a player his size ... Solid rebounder who really does a good job boxing his man out under the glass ... Keeps the ball high and doesn't put it on the floor when in the low post ... Good finisher around the basket where he can convert a number of shots with ease ... Tough minded player that doesn't shy away from contact ... Great passer for someone his size ... Uses his body to create contact in the lane to draw fouls ... Sees double teams before they occur... Versatile in that he stretch the opposing defense by shooting out to the 18 foot jumper ... Has the ball handling ability to create shots of the dribble ... Although 19 he already has 3 years of international experience and loads of potential... Really gets himself wide in the post to give teammates a good target to pass into ... Patient offensive player that rarely tries to exceed his physical limits ...
Weakness: Can be a little foul prone as he is still learning how to play effective low post defense ... Needs to continue to add more upper body strength to his physique ... Will have to upgrade his ball protection as he is still a little careless with the ball ... There has been many rumors circulating around about his age although he is listed as being bom in 1984 some say it is more closer to 1982 ... Post footwork has improved tremendously over the past two years but could still stand some refinement ... Pachulia still has to work on learning how to think the game through ... While he is athletic he isn't a explosive enough leaper to be a premier shot blocker... Shows soft touch from mid-range but he will need to display the confidence and consistency to make the shot ... Not what you would call a fluid player as his movements are a little mechanical ... Still a undeveloped prospect who wasn't given much actual game time to develop his game this past season ...

2003 Scouting Report:
Strengths: Defensively he has NBA skills as he is blessed with quick hands and solid lateral quickness ... Has a unique NBA ready body that is both strong and sturdy ... Can seemingly drive to the lane at will thanks to his great hesitation crossover move that gives him good separation from his defender... Once in the lane he has the uncanny ability to hang in the air and wait for the defense to commit before making his move ... Excellent rebounder for his size ... After he gets the ball he really looks to initiate the fast break ... Once he penetrates into the lane he is a hard player to stop as he is able to rely on his biggest asset which is the drive and dish ... Has developed solid leadership skills often he is a steady influence over his teammates ...Thanks to his wonderful court vision and creativity he has the ability to make difficult passes with pinpoint precision ...
Weakness: Height will become a big question for him come draft day. Although listed at 6-2, upon appearance he looks to be closer to 6-0 to 6-1 ... At this point Banks is not a very efficient shooter from the perimeter as he struggles with consistency ... Due to his height he is a post-up target for bigger guards who usually can get position on him ... Can get frustrated on offense if his shot isn't failing which usually leads to him taking questionable shots ... Still needs to work on developing into a better shooter off the dribble ... Decision making when the ball is in his hands has been vastly improved since last year but turnovers still can plague him at times ... Still learning as a point guard how to control the tempo of a game better... Still learning how to make players around him better but he is steadily improving in this aspect of the game ...
