LaMelo Ball will be a bust

[smitty22]

This is gonna age like a @smitty22 hot take on Tom Terrific.

Who the hell is Tom Terrific ? You must be talking bout Tommy Frazier . Yeah he was a great college quarterback . . Knowing your small brain ass you prolly talking bout Cheat Brady though

 

[smitty22]

I'm going on record saying this bust is gonna spend more time in the G-League than the NBA aka the Keita Bates-Diop career path, word to @smitty22

Trey Burke is currently in The Basketball Tournament on defending champion Carmens Crew(Buckeye Alums), as a backup point guard to Aaron Craft . He a traitor who career lasted shorter than leprechauns

Imagine drafting a 6'7 point guard 2nd overall and having to send him to the G-League

Like clockwork, we got another Coli premature bust thread

Mfs talking about no athleticism like the boy don’t got a quick first step, open court speed, and can’t make in air adjustments with his body, and like he don’t got length. He don’t need to jump out the gym to be nice or be the fastest man on the floor to have impact.

He’s 6’7 and growing which will allow him to see over defenses and he can pass that ball with flair and unpredictability and he can hit them corner shooters off penetration and P&R he has a great handle.

His jumper is streaky but he can hit it and he can hit it with range and his shot has good arc. His mechanics will improve just like big bro. As a slasher he’s frail but he got a floater and got length and improvisation and can finish with both hands and play the glass to finish around bigs he will get stronger.

He’s not a defensive stopper one-on-one and will be stashed on weakest perimeter options as a young player but he’s an instinctual rebounder with a nose for the ball in general. Great pick pocket and reader in the passing lane.

He plays with a calm, cool demeanor he’s confident out there and he’s not soft he got a mean streak his brother don’t have.

He'll be one of the league leaders in turnovers

No he won’t his handle is good and he’s an accurate passer.

At no level has he been turnover prone even in the NBL playing against men as a frail teen he only averaged 2.5 turnovers to 6.8 assists and 17 points.

Only 2.5? Only? That number will double in the NBA

U are a hater theres no justification for saying some shyt like that

2.5 turnovers ain’t shyt that’s around what Chris Paul and Dame Lillard average

U never saw him play and assume because he’s flashy he’s turnover prone just keep it a stack

So you’re saying his court vision is comparable to CP3?

 

[DPresidential]

@DPresidential

U want him on the Knicks

I honestly don't know, yet. I'm not great at assessing college talent.

 

[Shadow King]

Melo will likely be a bust in a sense of what's expected out of a Top 3 pick. But I can't say he doesn't belong in the league.

So you’re saying his court vision is comparable to CP3?

Ball handling =/= court vision.

 

[WhatsGoodTy]

Them future negs

 

[Marc Spector]

I wont say he will be a bust but imo hes shown nothing solid and consistent to justify the hype. His buzz is based off of "potential"

 

[Serious]

This will age so well

Can we use put options on neg repping op.
