I don't think people said he couldn't handle it. I think the problem was his propensity to dribble a bit too much, and turn it over a bit too often. He has nice playmaking skills with the ball in his hands.
He looked good tonight. Active on defense (which should be his calling card going forward) and even made a couple of threes. I've never been a big fan, but he has a unique game, and sometimes players with unique skills blossom in the NBA.
