Tony Allen: Cooper Flagg is Andrei Kirilenko with a Duke stimulus Package

[feelosofer]

Thats not really even a diss if Kirilenko is his comp.

 

[Pressure]

He went to duke. He will underwhelm

 

[Cladyclad]

what do you mean ? AK was taller than Bridges and would block the shyt out of guys

I aint ever seen mikal bridges block someone of shaqs stature

Ak 47 with a jump shot is Mikal Bridges imo

 

[IsThatBrothaMouzone?]

Ex-NBA players are so lazy with their analysis. If Flagg wasn’t white, nobody would even make this comparison.

......and if he was going to an East Coast squad, he'd be called the Second Coming.

Media and talking heads are anti-Dallas in hoops and football for some reason. These nikkas act like it's still November 1963.

The Mavericks aren't taking Cooper Flagg # 1 overall to be Andrei Kirilenko

Whats so hard to understand about what Tony Allen said???

The Mavs are taking him # 1 and expecting greatness. They are expecting generational greatness not no damn AK47

Who knew there were so many Kirlienko fans on thecoli.

He's right in that he’s not KD…KD is an absolute alien ..Cooper is going 1 because at the very least he’s a guy who is expected to get 20-22 ppg with elite defense …So while he may not be KD if you tell me the lowest non injury related outcome a player is going to have is Shawn Marion/All Star Gerald Wallace (that can shoot ) ..then yeah he’s going #1 because if his offensive game does take a leap to be a legit second option you’ve struck gold .

To be fair, AK47 is regularly talked about as a player who'd thrive in today's NBA.

what kinda take is this? Kirelinko would fuhk these nyggas up in todays game

 

[Primetime]

What the hell is this did AK 47 play in the 1940s??

Facts. There was a short window where Kirilenko couldawouldashoulda been a star in his own era (and was briefly gassed as that) if he wasn't brittle, soft emotionally fragile, and with a broke outside jumper

That said, i don't watch college ball (literally never saw Zion play until he came into the league) so if Kirilenko is an honest comparison and not just Tony being an ass, it kinda gives me context of what to expect.

Trust me, Cooper doesn't play anything like Kirilenko. TA's just talking nonsense. You should expect Aaron Gordon, with the volume turned up to max.
