Almost like he shouldered 100% of the scoring load and took it easy on defense. Crazy. You have all the excuses in the world for RJ Barrett though.

But RJ doesn't get any excuses shouldering the majority of the offensive load for Duke... Hm...

Never said that small school players can't succeed, just that Ja isn't a perfect prospect. He has major question marks coming into the league, he's the most TO prone guard ever drafted in the top 5, very suspect defensively, and his shooting might not translate. 

Why wouldn't his shooting translate? And can you atleast acknowledge that the defense probably has something to do with him being the entire offense?

"Hey [draft pick], I'm Maria Taylor. I just want you to look your parents in the eye and try not to cry in this really emotional moment in spite of how hard you worked and all of the sacrifices they made."

*tears start welling up*

"Here, we'll put on the Jeremy Schapp music for you just to really get it going."

She is annoying. She is literally trying to make every pick cry.

He was an okay 3 point shooter in the OVC, career .340 guy. NBA game is MUCH different than the typical OVC game.

His jumper is very repeatable. Thats basically the only thing that matters. You need to stop knocking Ja because he went above Ja tbh. You're a Knick fan and you just got a Duke player, just hype up RJ and move on.
