Didn't realize.he was Illinois Mr Basketball.and 5 star recruit out of high school. You can see the talent with his lift that has an extra half...
Christie was at another level clearly then everybody else on the Lakers summer league game Then only standout for me was Castleton. He's got...
He's first step off the crossovers doesn't look very explosive. Not really seeing it with him so far
Castleton looks pretty good lol. Dude is big and athletic
Garland and a healthy Zion/BI: ouch that would have made the actual AD deal interesting instead of a slam dunk for the Lakers
Plus what is NO player development doing?
The skill set is there for him but hes decision making almost seems like he's; not used to the speed of the defense when the intensity kicks up....
The Lakers and Lebron/AD got spooked when the Mets got Harden. I don't think they make that trade if that didn't happen And when you think about...
That is an oddball trajectory as I've ever seen. Come in as a top notch screener and then just became trash after one season? Swear I should...
Christie is going to get those minutes
That off ball defense is brutal: he'll get picked on in the playoffs with that
He is nowhere near ready to be shot creator either primary or secondary but he definitely seems ready to play with a guy like Reaves next to him....
Didn't seem to happen to Rui at least
Does he set good screens? A big who can set good screens basically can negate any spacing issues
Any film of him defending Jokic? I would have preferred a bruiser who could set screens on offense and be a threat to Jokic on the glass. Oh...
Honestly I probably would have preferred to keep DS as I think continuity is a big plus. ALways has been in the NBA but even more so now. This...
He'll get injured. The clippers curse is real. In reality they have a bunch of aging injury prone guys and guess what players tend to get hurt...
Vando insurance when if teams play off of him. Lakers needed an in between wing in size next to Rui and Reeves who could stay in the floor and...
He's a good shooter as well. Shot better then DS with a harder shot selection. I think bottom line this is what it comes down to. You get what...
why draft a guard when you're going after all these guards/sfs? Roster construction again tilting way too small here.
