Shaun Livingston would've went to DUKE and played for 2-3 years and got his weight up and got tutor under the guidance of one of the best college coaches in the NCAA history in Coach K at Duke. He was the best PG in the nation at the time. 6'7 and 178 lbs and he was rated the no 2 recruit in the nation, behind Dwight Howard and in front of Josh Smith. As a Duke fan i feel that his decision was a bad one and had he come to Duke he would went to war against the likes of Chris Paul and Ray Felton and if he would've did his thang aginst them he would have entered the 2005 Draft which seen only 3 PG's get taken in the 1st Round. Another option could have been to enter in the 2006 Draft which in my mind is a very week draft if you take a look at the top 10 picks. Five of them are really making noise for there clubs(Foye, Roy, Gay, Tyus Thomas, Lamrcus Aldridge) So its a real sad story but he still in the league and there is no harsh feelings as a Duke fan eventhough he messed up our recruiting a little bit.
sidebar i just checked out the rankings for 2004 seniors and Dave Mcclure was ranked 86th in the nation. Im sorry he was the most trash player ever to wear a Duke jersey. lol i got to see his high school tapes. smh
