Must be a weak *** draft.
. Draft ain’t strong...but the talent is obviously there. Still waiting on you to tell us how going to Australia was bad for Melo/RJ tho.

Must be a weak *** draft.
We just comparing light skinned dudes with NBA bloodlines today
It’s a just comparison based off the PRE draft hype both players had/have.
Austin made a killing his senior year ranked #1, had some big games and went viral big time....he followed up with a decent season at duke + drains a nationally televised game winner.
then he got drafted into the nba and looked PEDESTRIAN AS HELL.
granted he’s came along way since his rookie year and carved out a niche for himself in the L since...
But that’s where the comparisons are being drawn, we’ll at least for me.
I really don’t see it with Lamelo.
Do y’all honestly think he’s better than Austin Rivers was at the same point?
Austin Rivers is fine but he’s not a #1 pick.
This draft is pure basura though.

I mean if that’s how YOU see it that’s how YOU see it.
but the hype AUSTIN had in like 2011 that was like the beginning of all this HS youtube hype...
dood was BUZZING, dad was in the NBA, he was #1....he had the internet POPPIN, a lot more so than say a regular top recruit like Cole Anthony or Shabazz Mohammad.....
I find it very similar how people were putting a lot into him based off his video clips and media push.
I’m not sure if you were following or watching hoops at the time? No cap, if you were you would know the hype dood had....
But if you want to make the light skin connection...go ahead, people see what they wanna see.
Yeah we talmbout hype....
no one comparing they games to one another...

Basically...never once have I seen Lamelo play and thought “Man he’s just like Austin Rivers”.
Austin had some great Hoop Mixtapes tho.
More like Rookie year MCW#ComplexionComparison Jamal Murray with better passing instincts?
I’ve never once watched LaMelo and thought man, that kid is really different. There are usually a handful of kid literally every year that have his skill set.
