Superstar
If CJ keeps shooting like that the Raps are gonna make the ECF.
He moves really quick from end to end, but I didn't see anything else positive from him. He really struggled to protect the rim.
Saw a stat earlier this week
CJ miles made the second most contested 3 pointers last year, first was Klay Thompson

He was also giving up offensive rebounds under the basket,the most irritating thing to me about him is he doesnt finish strong in traffic...
I will not respect him until he gathers goes up and tries to crown someone in traffic.
raptors should have drafted and signed dillon brooks
dude looks like a steal

I still think he slipped because of DX. DX was REALLY down on him because they didn't know where he would play at the next level and he was seen as kind of a chucker at Oregon. I like him though, dude is tough as nails and he's not afraid of anything. At the Pan Ams finals, the rest of the team was hanging their head when they were losing and kept looking into the crowd when people were talking about them. He didn't acknowledge any of the criticisms from the crowd. He barely played and he was basically trying to pump the entire team up, changed the entire team's energy when he came in. Memphis definitely got a steal
That gold medal game where they got smashed by Brazil is what sold me on brooks. Whole team was playing like ass and he came in and sparked runs by playing hard as fukk. No could guard on a switch and he was causing havoc covering 1 - 4
I was there in the front row, that whole team was fragile as hell. Triano and Sim Bhullar were staring down people in the crowd when people were criticizing his subs, or wondering why the team couldn't shoot at all. Dillon and Jamal Murray were the only guys that didn't seem to be shaken by the big moment.
Its sad that the 2 youngest guys were the only ones who came to play at a gold medal game on home soil, even if it was a mostly meaninglessness tourney
Every Triano coached team has folded when it mattered. He's not a HC at all. He could be useful as an assitant but it ends there
dillon brooks 32 min 4-7 shooting 9 points hard nose defense
this is why masai is a horrible talent evaluator

I mean OG did have a near lottery grade pre-injury...I can't really knock that pick I assumed it was a good value pick based on his defensive potential but Brooks looks like a player who would of been a better fit....Teams like the Pelicans and a few others always miss out on these potential 2nd rd steal types or trade them for money.
Also what are they doing with Poetl?
