with development of players. Bilodeau was a good but flawed and limited college player. Bilodeau improved every year under Cronin. Considering Tyler's deficiencies, to be drafted by the NBA is a testament to Bilodeau's skills, work ethic, and Cronin's coaching. Cronin was able to help Bilodeau improve but he also utilized Bilodeau's strengths, allowing the NBA to see where and how Bilodeau could be used and perhaps to flourish enough to stick. I believe Bilodeau has a steep uphill climb to achieve a multi-year NBA career, but his work ethic and Cronin's coaching, along with those skills he does possess has given him a chance to fulfill his dreams. Good luck Tyler!
