We'll see. I disagree I think he's highly skilled
He has shown in college and moments (when he gets the ball consistenly) that he's a great passer
He's also a great rebounder as a guard
He's also shown great skill at finding different ways finishing at the basket and is already pretty strong as a rookie
The sky is the limit for RJ
I see high superstar potential with RJ and you don't
Agree to disagree :yeshrug:
Handle is stiff and not very creative. He's more of a rhythm streak shooter and has been terrible from the line. Still very left hand dominant going right isn't a strong suit. He relies more bullying his way to the rim with his advanced frame rather than being a skilled finisher. He is a good passer because he has a good I.Q. but I wouldn't say he's great. The great passers make those advanced reads. Barrett doesn't have an elite skill yet.

Gobert and Smart are ceilings. If they can become that I'd be happy as shyt.
I'd be happy as shyt also. But I disagree with the ceiling. Mitch with his fouling woes already matches Gobert's blocking numbers. Frank's defensive +assist numbers are at a rate that are unmatched by anyone currently in the league. These are two players in their second and third seasons that are in the upper echelon of the league in steals and blocks. They are already statistically a boon in terms of points in the paint and opp fg%. If they hold their positive impact defensively, and just become consistent in their flaws, they easily surpass those guys. I'm not sure they will... Just saying that we can see the potential being higher.

You don't see what I see and that's fine :yeshrug:

They take terrible shots. No one came come off a screen and shoot. Pick and roll?

They could put Morris or RJ in with this lineup but no he will put them both in with Randle so they can not pass it to each other.
