He played faster than that.
Well - maybe his time was off?
yeah - this is my favorite pick of the draft. I went into that last week of the pre-draft process and literally said at one point "Man, i don't really care who they take in the 1st - I just really want Rice in the 2nd..."
I think he's gonna be awfully good. Not a superstar, just a damn steady player for a long time.

Think this was me perhaps? I saw him as slower than you thought. That said, like Duncan I thought I was watching quite a different player dependent on what year I was watching. His earlier tape seemed to show more separation, imo. Maybe it's the toe, the usage, the opposition, or my eyes are s***t. Probably the latter.
