Scouting Reports

Brian Cardinal should wear a hard hat to every game he plays in.  He is that kind of a player, a definate blue collar worker.  Comparisions in the NBA would be a Gary Trent, Popeye Jones, or a Austin Croshere.  Any team would be a fool not to take cardinal, probabley in the second round but he is still a great selection.  He provides rebounds, steals and hustle to a yet developing offensive game.  He can step back and hit the three ala Sam Perkins or he can bang in the middle with the big boys.  Cardinal will be good for about 20 minutes a game, 9 points, 5 boards, and 3 dives for loose balls.  Cardinal recieves the Mr. Hustle award for the 2000 NBA draft.
