Philly. Fucc a Eagle. I mean dat.
I def didn't watch him in Kansas but god damn he's shown nothing this year and he's had every chance to. His shot form is not a issue either it's def mental, I hope they sign somebody to take his starting spot next season.
this is why bum ass teams will never prosper. how about instead of :camby: 'n him after his rookie year, you show some damn confidence in your top pick and see if he can turn it around. plus, whos a better option out there that'll wanna go to sac town? :stopitslime:

Hes a good example of a kid who should have stayed in school. Mentally he's just not ready. He's athletic as hell and has a pretty good jumper but hes still a kid and not ready to play with grown ass men.

Optimistic But I Got Hands Tho
Like 99 percent of the 2013 NBA draft, give him some time. I don't think this draft ends being the worst of all time it's just that most of them were not ready for the NBA.

I blame LeBron's draft class as they simply raised the bar too high for players coming in the league and having an immediate impact.

The fact that he can't dribble limits his ceiling. You can't be an elite wing and not have handles. That's something that has to be developed early.

I was hearing crazy talk that he was the next great 2guard and what not. I never saw any of that in Kansas because he didn't put the ball on the court. He was def overhyped.

Saying that, I have a tough time believing he is as bad as he is. He is mentally adjusting to the NBA so I would give him time.
You mean like @#1 pick comparing him to Elgin Baylor in his mock draft? :mjlol:

He's a good a example of someone who looks the part and rode the hype to being a lottery pick

He doesnt look like the sharpest tool in the shed when I watch him. He has the tools to be a good 2 guard but he just seems clueless.:yeshrug:

Dude reminds me of kids that come from sheltered homes

He still has that little kid mentality.Once he matures mentally and improves his handle I think he'll be a allstar caliber plater

nikkas that D up and hit a open 3 aren't hard to find in the league, pretty sure a random consistent wing player would come to Sac. I think he will be fine with plays ran for him because his shot is textbook. But with his weak handles and lack of bball IQ his ceiling isn't that high realistically:yeshrug:

I blame THE MAJORITY OF GREATS THROUGHOUT HISTORY as they simply raised the bar too high for players coming in the league and having an immediate impact.

Fixed

Shoulda stayed in college if he wasnt ready. Entering the draft was him saying he was ready...he lied. :russ:
