Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they saw him with his shirt off and that's why they took him.

But at the same time many teams (and fans) make the mistake of falling in love with players that look the part, but maybe aren't as impressive on the field.

McCune needs work. Probably more work than the coaches thought he would need. He's raw and and that was the book on him coming out of college, but I think alot of fans looked past that and the only thing they saw was his physical attributes and figured this guy has got to be a baller.

The main thing with him right now is his mental game isn't anywhere near his physical game, but once it catches up he could be a quality player.
