I'm in full agreement with what Mr.Scarface said above. There is a portion of the fan base who feel Clowney wasn't worth the 1.1 pick, but as was already stated, they don't matter. What it boils down to is Clowneys injuries and the fact the Merciless plays better in his absence, but what they forget is how long it took Merciless (former 1st round pick) to finally show some production. This is essentially Clowneys rookie season or sorts, and if he can stay healthy, I can see a large jump in his production next season. I can't really comment on him playing outside of his natural position, but in my opinion he has quickly become the best defender on this team to recognize the screen.


I wouldn't be against trading him for another position of need, but I also am not one of the fans calling him a bust. I think he will be fine, however fall slightly short of all the pre-draft hype.
