As Laker fans we all saw what Steve Nash did to the Lakers defense with his out of the world "physical ability". The problem is that Farmar doesn't have outstanding ball handling ability like the crafty points in the NBA. I noticed that Farmar has trouble handling the ball going to the left. Also, it's worth mentioning that Farmar is playing the toughest position in basketball, it'll be difficult for Farmar to make a contribution right away.


Do you know how long it took Nash to develop that kind of ball-handling? He had massive help under Kidd and Kevin Johnson.

Farmar might not be classified as an athletic freak, but he was ranked #12 in the pre-draft. That's not bad.

Jordan Farmar is a good player, but the Lakers should have really tryed an traded up a bit for either Rajon Rondo or Marcus Williams.

Farmar shows an amazing amount of maturity for a 19 year old.
