I am starting to reconsider my stance on Swift. I watched him as much as I could a couple years ago when he was actually getting playing time before his injuries, and he impressed me. He looked like he was going to be a very good NBA center.
However, now that I think about it a little more, I cannot put much credence in my own opinion of him at that time. It was when the C's were in full-blown tank mode, and I was desperate for any brightspot in young players. I could find positives in Ryan Gomes' offense, despite his total lack of defense, and I could see that Telfair could be a good NBA point-guard once he got more confidence in his shot.
In short, I was blind. Who knows, maybe Swift will be a player, and will show something later in this summer-league. But as far as how he played before the injuries, I don't think it can be notched up to anything more than Tony Allen's stretch before blowing out his knee. Empty stats on a terrible team.
