I would typically agree with you but there isn't alot of defense played in the NBA right now and as the season went on, I realized how good of a scorer Hubbard actually is. He is in a rare group of small gaurds who can score so effortlessly. One advantage that he has is he jumps so high and releases the ball at the apex every single time so its even hard for bigger guards and forwards to affect his shots.
He's a special scorer, if he was 4 to 6 inches taller he would be a top 5 pick this year. His size will hurt him some but there have been some small guards that made it to the NBA so it can happen.
