Just days after returning from the 21-team pre-draft group workouts in Oakland, Suns President of Basketball Operations and General Manager Steve Kerr and Director of Player Personnel Todd Quinter are headed to Treviso, Italy, for the three-day Reebok Eurocamp to eval‎uate international pro hopefuls this weekend.

“We’ll get a chance to see the top European players,” Kerr told Suns.com. “Last year, that’s where Todd saw Goran, loved him, came back and said ‘let’s try and get this guy in the second round.’ These are important trips for us. You can get somebody you like who may be a bit under the radar, or maybe he’s not. These days, everybody has scouts at these things.

“The other thing the camp does is give you a head start on guys who could be in the draft next year. It gives you a reference point.”

Kerr admits that the Suns scouting department has seen plenty of this weekend’s talent already via video footage, but there is no substitute to eval‎uating in person – even if that means traveling halfway across the planet to do it.

“Tape doesn’t always give you the information you need,” he said. “You want to see a guy go up against speed and quickness. With a European player, it’s harder to gauge that speed level internationally vs. the NBA level. You look at certain matchups. You look at certain guys and try to get a feel for how they would fit into your lineup.”

With representation in Treviso expected by most, if not all, NBA clubs, the international camp is a useful and necessary tool in eval‎uating mass European talent in a single setting.

“It’s a tremendous camp,” added Suns Senior Vice President of Basketball Operations David Griffin. “It features guys who will be in this year’s draft and kids who potentially could be lottery considerations next year in the draft. It’s recognized as the preeminent talent eval‎uation tool of the summer for guys.

“With Todd being there last year and being another set of eyes on Goran, that had a huge impact on our ability to reaffirm our belief in Goran. We had scouted him over an extended period of time, but when you watched him play as well as he did relative to other elite European players, it really crystallizes your thinking. There are players there now we are equally high on. And if they perform as well as Goran did there, it might be meaningful to us. It’s critical to what we do.”

 스티브 커와 스카우트 팀 수장 토드 퀸터가 함께 이탈리아에서 행해지는 리복 유로 캠프에 참여한다고 합니다.

선즈가 올해 2라픽 2장을 가지고 있고 

내년 1라픽도 없기도 하고해서 유럽 플레이어에게 좀 더 신경을 쓰는 모습입니다.

본문에 보면 고란의 이름이 자주 언급되는데요. 선즈 프론트진이 고란에게 거는 기대가 어느정도 인지 

짐작이 가는 부분이죠. 젠트리 감독으로 교체즈음 해서 좋은 모습을 보였고 올시즌 더 좋은 모습을 보여주리라 믿습니다.

저도 고란이 많이 기대하고 있어요 ㅎㅎ//일단 기본기가 좋아서..근데 득점욕이 좀 있는거 같애요 '- '

근데 기본기가 연습게임에서만 좋다는게;; 본게임에서 연습때 보여주는 모습을 보여줘야죠. 드라기치가 원래 트루 PG가 아니라 듀얼가드라서 본인이 일단 수비진을 교란시키는 플레이에 익숙한 선수입니다. 포터때는 이걸 못하게 막아놨고 젠트리 오면서 나름 자신감 있는 돌파도 보여주고 있죠. 돌파에 자신감이 붙고 내쉬형한테 PG로서 기본기도 배우게 된다면 지노빌리 같은 훌륭한 가드가 될 수 있다고 생각합니다.

자세한 설명 감사합니다 ㅠㅠ//드라기치 좋아한다고 해놓고 정작 관련 뉴스 같은걸 찾아 볼 시간이 없는데 //감사합니다 ㅎㅎ

다음시즌에는 진짜 고란과 로빈이 많이 발전된 모습을 보여주길 기대합니다!

...........진주 건져라 ㅠㅠ ... 선즈에게 좋은 소식 들어본지가 언젠지...
