Joseph was top 15 last year - I think he'll start for us when PP retires. Great athlete to run w/ Rondo, can nail open 3's, can drive to the hoop, and is a lockdown defender.

Um you're pretty much dead wrong on half of that.

He's a poor athlete who is not a runner, a decent 3 point shooter, decent penetrator, and a very  unpolished defensive player who is going to struggle to be better than a sheer liability, let alone a "lockdown defender"

His defense is VERY underrated. He was the best wing defender in the Syracuse zone last year, which was one of the best defenses in the country. Has a long wingspan and plays even bigger than 6'7"

Also, he is a much better athlete than you would think. Yes, he sucked at the combine, but on the court he looks faster than everyone else.
