I guess Batum has several moms because I agree with him. From what I've seen, Batum's moves and handle are way farther along than Alexander's and he's just as athletic. I don't know about Batum's heart condition, and maybe people have cooled on him a bit, but the whole Alexander phenomenon has gotten way out of hand in my opinion. He can't shoot, he can't dribble, ok, he's a fine athlete, but unless he develops a midrange game like Luol Deng or develops his skills far beyond where they are, he's basically just another Ime Udoka or Jamario Moon.
Remember Luke Jackson, picked at #10 in 2004? His skills were even farther along than Alexander's. Dare I say people get overly excited about the athletic white guys because of the novelty factor?
