OFFICIAL NBA 2018 NBA Draft & Rookie Thread: NT SL Represent!

[ill steelo]

Tatum was getting a ton of touches down the stretch.

He’s going to be really really really good after a couple offseasons.

Won’t develop the bad habits that Melo did either.

I was thinking this yesterday - Tatum's situation is what Melo's situation would have been if drafted #2 by Detroit. Less pressure and forced to fit into a disciplined structure with the ability to be brought along slower but better long term development. Eliminates all those bad ISO and defensive habits.

Yo Wavy...you know what I notice.

You a fan of role players Mudilay, Ball, and Issac.

Meanwhile you overlook stars or cornerstones...like the ones I pick. Tatum, Fox and DLo.

Will be checking and rooting for my Bahamian brethren DeAndre Ayton.

Bagley has a better chance of going #1 than he does dropping out of the top 5...

that's partly true. but you also gotta remember it was Larry Brown and he was known for sitting rookies. it might have hurt his development if aything.

Already on the bandwagon, he's the next Unicorn. His game is unreal tbh

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

It's just scary. Look at how he tracks the outlet pass at 1:30 as he's in a full sprint and back pedals to catch it. That's ridiculous

..you hoop?

Lol that's like the most basic thing I've ever seen someone be so impressed by . Jeff van gundy would be proud. I was really expecting some insane play only to see the basketball equivalent of walking and chewing gum at the same time

I literally exited Fullscreen mode to look at the time he typed out cuz i thought I missed the play

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Deadass I watched it like 3 times just to make sure I wasn't trippin . It's even funnier because he didn't even catch it clean

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Guys pls :/ he's 7'1 over 260 in a full sprint

Other than that, the other highlights hopefully were impressive

 

[buc em]

Ayton is HUGE and his potential is ridiculous but his body type and the way he moves and hits the floor all the time scares me for his health long-term. Trust me...I've seen it enough with Embiid.

 

[wavycrocket]

How tall is Trae Young really?

I'm not buying he's 6'2....but he makes some really high level reads. And his mix of handle, speed and shooting ability/range are very intriguing.

I honestly don't think he's any taller than 5'11

 

[wavycrocket]

Yeah. He's always looked super small to me. Frail too. Part of me sees Tyus Jones....there's something more there though. Dare I say "curry-ish" . More Seth than Steph

The inevitable comparisons will come this year though. I expect Trae Young to have a big year numbers wise.

 

[frshstunna]

Trae definitely not wasn’t past 6 ft when I watched him play last season, he was like the smallest guy on the court with an old man mustache

Unless he grew he’s 6ft max
