The Knicks are fucking up lmao
Also, RJ turned down a workout with the Griz. They were too hyped and played themselves. Ja got the juice now but he built like a butter knife
For real, though, RJ isn't a great prospect. Dudes can shout me down with "but he tries" and that doesn't change that he doesn't project to be that good.
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostI think he'll be good, but I'm not trading 8 and 10 to grab RJ, no wayBut this draft sucks. What is 8 and 10 getting you, really? Some potential lottery tickets like Reddish or Sekou? Eh.
By unknown Go To PostRj will be great, how you don't see it is beyond me.He'll be better than Kevin Knox, but I'll try not to trip on that bar I'm setting.
By rodeoclown Go To PostFor real, though, RJ isn't a great prospect. Dudes can shout me down with "but he tries" and that doesn't change that he doesn't project to be that good.He's the easy number one pick behind Zion who's a generational talent imo. What's his biggest fault? His shot selection on a team where only two players were worth guarding? That's on Coach K not him (Just like Duval going undrafted after being the top PG in the country)
Ja is getting Westbrook comparisons when he's got more in common with Jason Terry tbh. He's also legit scrawny.
Draft isn't bad as much as it's full of guys who all revolve around the late first round talent level all the way from 4 through the early second round.
By rodeoclown Go To PostHe'll be better than Kevin Knox, but I'll try not to trip on that bar I'm setting.Maple mamba. He is mature and will be a star most likely.
Ja’s Westbrook comparison is dumb and lazy and only said by people that have watched his dunk highlights.
By unknown Go To PostRj will be great, how you don't see it is beyond me.I guess a less athletic and shorter limbed Rudy Gay is great now?

Knicks could get a guy I like at 10 in Rui Hachimura (might be too early doe), have no clue who they'd get at 8. Cam Reddish and hope he was held back on a stacked Duke team?
EDIT: I mean fuck it, unless Reddish suddenly morphs into Siakam with a NBA jumper might as well keep Barrett.

Clippers fined $50,000 for violating NBA anti-tampering rule after Doc Rivers' comments on Kawhi Leonardso if you're in LA long enough, you're bound to be spanked with anti-tampering fines.
By DY_nasty Go To PostSmart move.Reddish skyrocketing up draft boards as we speak.
"I was hurt"
Worked for Steph
By rodeoclown Go To PostFor real, though, RJ isn't a great prospect. Dudes can shout me down with "but he tries" and that doesn't change that he doesn't project to be that good.His upside is like booker / paul pierce / cj mccullum.
Good volume shooter, really good 2nd ball handler. and good athlete / size.
That relies upong several things falling into place, like his shot, though.
By DY_nasty Go To PostZion learned how to shoot in like 6 months tbhNot really.
people didn't even think he could dribble for real in high school. he didn't become the far and away #1 pick until a dozen games into the college season when he started showing off he could do things he'd *never* done at a high level
dribbling, shooting, passing - he was no Harry Giles. Hell, it was a question if Zion would even be able to rebound or stay on the floor against D1 guys. Meanwhile RJ was destroying NBA players at Dyckman a year prior
People acting like Zion just showed up nice af. He's made crazy improvements in a short amount of time

I really don’t want to care about our pick in the draft because we should trade it, but I’m pretty sure I’m going to have to because we’re gonna fail. An injured off the dribble shooter? I’m hoping the summer doldrums are a cathartic experience, honestly
No, but people acting like zion has gained massive elite skills are kidding themselves too.
His shot is bad, the most polite thing you can say about it is it's early blake griffin. It's slow, deliberate, and obvious.
He showed up as a clear top 3 player. Not sure about this "not able to stay on the floor".
It'd also be stupid to think he didn't develop during the season. He has. But he didn't just how up having never played ball before.

all he could do for two years was dunk on hall monitors lmao
he went from looking at his feet while dribbling then being a better passer and handler in transition than the top 20 pg that duke recruited on his behalf. he actually had to be guarded from the 3pt line out when he was projected to be maybe as good of a shooter *in college* as julius randle - the same guy who went two months without hitting a shot outside of 15ft. zion went from basically no shot form to speak of to a respectable shooter in 6 months. and for many, that's a career's worth of work. he never rebounded against top prospects either
he was less skilled wide body aaron gordon - and gordon played better comp his entire life too
domino, hasphats, and pac will say the same shit. nc/sc circuits are clearly defined and zion dodged the fuck out of those aau teams while those mixtapes did all the heavy hype lifting. dudes improvement and work ethic is ridiculous. dude got put on the u17 team finally then only showed up to the camps and didn't actually play lol
fuck u kibner btw

By Kabro Go To Postso if you're in LA long enough, you're bound to be spanked with anti-tampering fines.Man this is fucking stupid. It ain’t like he went out the way to say that. Screamin A asked him a question on an official nba show
By DY_nasty Go To Postpeople didn't even think he could dribble for real in high school. he didn't become the far and away #1 pick until a dozen games into the college season when he started showing off he could do things he'd *never* done at a high levelA dozen games? Bruh. The #1 pick was his to give away game one. You are rewriting the fuck out of history.

see i never thought zion couldnt do those things
he just didnt have to show a complete arsenal in hs.
but he did get to dodge the comp a lil bit.
so some folks had doubts based on that

I wanted to call out the kind of massive bullshit this fine is. Silver's statement made it sound like what Doc said was obviously tampering...but how is it tampering when you compare a current player to a player that's been retired for literally 20 years? Sure, MJ is the greatest ever, but he's still a retired player from an entirely different era of basketball.
That's a comment I'd let slide any day of the week. Bet if he were compared to...idk...Shawn Kemp, nobody would say shit and there'd be no fine.
By domino Go To Postsee i never thought zion couldnt do those thingsYou thought he could handle the ball like that?

That's like believing in Coby White
