Let's Talk About Michael Carter-Williams Being The Next Great Pure PG.
- Thread starter Loose
- Start date
Breh just let the homie cookI am of the notion that Wiggins may not be the consensus number 1.
I hear that...and it seems like theres enough good players, where if u have a top 5 pick, ure going to come out with a player. But if were drafting outside of that...mehh. If we can get one of those top guys....we bring back a healthy Noel who's hopefully polishing up at that offensive game as we speak, and MCW turns out to be a player with a year under his belt...now, we have something to be a little excited about

Was about to make this thread, lets look at his rookie production against some comparable players.
Michael Carter-Williams 17.7 5.8 7.3 3.1 steals and 3.7 turnovers 40.8 Fg% 19.0 PER 45.5 eFG%
Comparable to guys like Chris Paul and even magic but more among the lines of a rajon rondo, Steve Francis and even a less effecient young Clyde Drexler. Keep in mind im talking stastically not actual play style. Penny is the only player I can think of with a somewhat similar game. But I actually think carter-Williams is much more developed than a 22 year old penny, Hardaway was a much more talented natural athlete however

Lol, I'll be alright, MCW is a mystery to me. I wanna read some opinions on him. I have no doubts that shooting percentage and turnovers are 2 things that can be worked on as his career progresses
at the collective hindsight ether in this thread.
Has this kid been getting hurt already? I know he missed a few games not too long ago, but now his knee hurts. Could be the only knock on his game.
He's in the lead for ROTY for sure.

Someone made a great post earlier in the thread about his game resembling a "crackhead" Penny Hardaway type game and as funny as it sounds, I'd agree 
his game is still very raw and he's still not a great shooter but he can still score, he has great court vision and passing abilities. At such a young age, he knows how to slow the game down and control the pace in spurts but he also knows when to push the tempo. He has long arms, so he can gamble more in the passing lanes to get steals, which he's done so far. And he's also a very underrated rebounder, considering the fact that he has solid rebounders on his team already (Young, Hawes, Turner). With all this said, he's only 22 and if he can continue to work on each of those attributes of his game, he will be a great point guard in the league for a very long time. The sky is the limit with this kid.

MCW vs Oladipo going to be entertaining throughout their careers...
