amac Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Trae Young is already looking like Curry jr. hard to pass on that whatever upside Morant may have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly do not know. I don't remember being too avid about it tho. Not like I was with Jayson Tatum, Luka Doncic and Ja Morant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDez Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Y’all who loved him definitely look right so far. There’s never a perfect comp but he looks more Wade than Westbrook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s never a perfect comp but he looks more Wade than Westbrook. That's another good one. I just think it's his bounce and his ability to finish at incredible angles/distance that makes him special. Like, he's an incredible quick twitch athlete and there's not a real true comparison for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Issue with JJJ is playing under control. He fouls waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much and hasn't offered much on the boards. He's got potential still but you might have to temper the upside expectations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amac Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 People put too much stock into on/off numbers. Jackson seems like he’s in a pretty good place for a 2nd year player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As of today, he ranks 36/38 in rebounds % for centers playing 20+ mpg. Only ahead of Frank Kaminsky and Brook Lopez. And he also ranks in the top 10 again in both fouls per game and fouls per 48 min.

College he shot 39% from the field and 33% from 3. Last year, he shot 41% from the field and 32% from 3. If he shoots 45% and 38% on his volume, I'll stop posting here. EDIT - I'm sorry, he shot 42% and 36% in college. 39% and 33% were against the Big 12. Point still stands. Trae Young fades as the season wears on? Didn't he play significantly better towards the end of last season than he did in the beginning of it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
