He's got incredible handles. Nothing flashy but very effective in tight spaces. There was another play in the 2nd quarter where he split 3...
I agree, and I'm not trying to undervalue the importance of defense, not at all. I'm talking about the trend in the NBA. More than half of the...
I understand Towns having the better defensive upside, but I'm not sure how important that is in today's perimeter dominated game.... I mean,...
He's going to be a very dangerous player if he develops his range past 18 feet..... with his slashing ability, a total nightmare for the defense....
I wonder how high his ceiling is..... he is definitely a natural SG though, with PG skills. I guess it depends on how well he develops his jumper,...
:cool:
Like I said, the gap keeps widening. Okafor is the sure fire #1. Besides, I haven't seen anything from Towns that suggests he has a higher ceiling.
I think Lin is definitely worth 4/16 or 5/20. Rondo is not 2x the player Lin is, thus not worth 10/40, most likely his value on this market.
These games proved that there is Okafor at #1, then there's everyone else.
Yes there are plenty of busts but AT LEAST a HANDFUL become stars or solid role players. NO current player from the CBA can impact a NBA team....
@therealdeal OK so we agree that the talent pool is better in the NCAA if we remove the foreign players from the CBA, yes? FACT: The bottom 80%...
Well it's certainly not an apple to apple comparison, but I still believe Division I talent is greater than CBA talent because as RandleROFY...
@thereadeal Let's give this a rest. I apologize for getting a little side-tracked, but I guess the core disagreement is that I feel the CBA is...
Yeah but no one in the NCAA is averaging 29.5pts 5.3ast 4.6reb .539fg% like Marbury was. Hence I say NCAA >> CBA. I don't quite understand why I...
@thereadeal Yeah, and Jordan was the GOAT. But not anymore. Those 3 players were D-league talent by the time they left the NBA.
Well no, you're right. Not in the NBA. But a shooter is always a shooter, at any level. Wall is the quickest player in the NBA. Mudiay is...
@thereadeal I don't want to get too sidetracked here, but here is some evidence of how pathetic the CBA is. Gilbert Arenas 2011-2012 (Memphis)...
@therealdeal 1. Russell is already a better shooter than Ginobili. Mudiay has nothing that is even remotely close to Wall. 2. No argument here....
That's a fair assessment but I wanted to point out a few things. 1. Projecting Russell to max out as a 3rd Best Player and bottom out as a...
@therealdeal you had Johnson at #3 a couple of days ago. Did you slide him down because of his display yesterday? And if you don't mind me...
