Small as ? with no jumpshot and a Liability on defense
i saw him play in person when he was in HS and had the hype he played in the Beach ball classic here in SC ..and it seem like he shot the ball everytime he touched it , he dominated the kids but he was so damn small as in weight ..he looked more 5'10 160lbs then the listed 6'0 he was at ....and he wasnt even the best player in the tournament Deron Williams was ,but they gave Sebastian the "MVP" of the tournament he had good #'s but i thought Deron played better overall games
but when i saw Telfair in person his lack of size and how he played was a huge concern ...his Jumper then was broken ...he scored most his buckets just driving past slower HS Kids -

I was rooting for Bassy cuz he's from the home borough. Dude shoulda went to college but be did what he had to do for his fam & he's worked hard enough to stay in the league do u can't knock him. I had the same hopes for Lance Stepheson. Why that ? left Cincy after 1 season...IDK

^^ Man Lincoln has produced some solid players, Lance is still young so we'll see how his career pans out. My HS was the one playing them in the ESPN doc for the PSAL title and I remember watching him roast our defenders on some AND1 ? at the Garden. I think he's the city's all-time leading scorer, he had ? on lock. I know he had to make sure his fam was good but I know looking back even he knows college would've been great for him. Playing under Pitino, learning when to utilize his scoring ability and when to pass and I think college would've alleviated the hype a bit.

Think u could see the whole time his game was never really up to par to be a star in the L

So yeah more things went right for Sebastian than went wrong... because he is still in the league and has done some life and game maturation along the way

i think someone should seriously help these nyc undersized guards pick better colleges.
i think it shoulda been mandatory for them all to ? wit uconn -
That ? is basically Raefar Austin without the overbite.
Skip was a way better player and the playing time while in the NBA as well as his numbers proves that.
