Brandon Knight a Disappointment?

I ran across this article saying Brandon Knight would be a disappointment to fans and I thought I would see what everyone else thinks about it.
[PRBREAK][/PRBREAK]I don’t put a whole lot of stock into a Bleacher Report Article, but if they are going to take jabs at Wildcats, we might as well jab back.

Here is their reasoning:

The selection of Knight may shock some people, but it’s all based one where he’s going to go in the draft.

Knight is a young, talented, dynamic point guard, but he’s going to land in the top five picks of this draft, and there are going to be so many comparisons to the best slashing, scoring guards in the league, raising expectations.

However, Knight is still very much a work-in-progress, and it’s going to take time for him to be come an impact player. Sadly, fans don’t have much patience.

I don’t see Brandon Knight having trouble adapting to anything. He has shown improvement in all facets of his game and I am pretty sure the expectations from one the team’s fans that draft him, for example Utah, won’t even come close to putting the type of pressure Kentucky fans can create.

A disappointment? I don’t think that word should never be in the same sentence as Brandon Knight.
