Nick Van Exel Appreciation Thread

[TrebleMan]

Two guys - Nick Van Exel and Baron Davis - if they were born even just a decade and maybe six years later respectively, would've been statistical MONSTERS in this era.

I genuinely believe this. I didn't watch Baron Davis play much, so can't speak on him, but watched Nick Van Exel plenty. Although his fg% isn't the greatest, his 3FG% is in the upper 30's and made some extremely difficult ones. Right now with the leauge in love with the 3 ball, Van Exel gets the green light and he'd drop them.

I'm telling you, giving Nick Van Exel free reign, an ultra green light, a spread floor, and no one allowed to touch him without a foul being called, there's no reason he wouldn't be doing what Isaiah Thomas is doing right now.

nick van exel would be one of the greatest players in nba history if he was born 15 years later.
