kyrie is great at contorting his body, switching hands and moving the ball. add that to his incredible vert for his size and it really gives off the illusion of "hangtime"

Charlotte fans clearly stating their feelings on ant vs lamelo but washed will continue to be stubborn just like he was with victor until it’s finally undeniable@addict4sneakers Both teams got their guy. And it isn’t like Charlotte even had a chance to get Ant and chose LaMelo over him.With their pick Charlotte made the right choice. Same for Minny. GS is who ****ed up lol.
The Ant/Melo comparisons are just odd to me. They’re completely different players, with completely different roles on their respective squads. Ant is a generational player. Melo is not, nor did anyone who is sane ever think he had the potential to be one. There's a reason AE went #1.
While Melo certainly has his shortcomings and criticisms of his game are valid, he's a victim of unrealistic expectations based on draft position and the insane fame he had outside of hoops. And Hornets' fans are the main culprit. He’s not the generational talent that Ant is. What he is is a PG with way above average court vision, game feel and the talent to put up 25+ a game while still being a high level facilitator. He lacks on the defensive side of the ball, although I think he has the skillset to be much better (and he was this year when he wasn't injured). He's someone you keep around longterm (provided he can stay healthy), but he isn't the guy you build around like Ant. But then again, how many lottery picks are that??
Ant Man is special. Who wouldn't love to have him on their squad? But given the circumstances, Charlotte could've done way worse. So it is what it is. We ball. Just hope Melo can stay healthy moving forward. Because if his stretch of games prior to going down this year are any indication, he's def getting closer to his potential.

Yes I watch the games, and Embiids brand of basketball is awful to watch. Youre bringing up individual stats like that got him far into the playoffs, good team/bad team whatever.

How is Ant generational? What does Ant do on the court that we haven't seen before or won't see again in the near future? At this point y'all treating bro like the personality hire. Nothing about his actual game is being used as backing for these claims.
26-5-5 on 46% from the field and 35% from 3. He's a great athlete but y'all are wilding.
Why yall don't give Jaylen Brown this love?

Always has been. Only reason he averaged 22 or whatever last year on the Wizards is because they forced fed him the ball late in games since he was the franchise player. He legit should have been the THIRD option on that team.

His talent, skill, mindset, leadership, he's generational.
More importantly his game raises to another level in the playoffs.
Not even close to his peak yet...

Nor do I agree Edwards is a generational talent as well.
