candyman93 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 (edited) Morant gives me a D Wade vibe offensively. His defense needs work still. However, I like his effort. Edited March 21, 2019 by candyman93 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LETSGOBROWNIES Posted March 22, 2019 Author Share Posted March 22, 2019 I never knew Ja and Zion were in the same AAU team. I bet they didn’t suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownie man Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Lol I was tripping I’m not taking Tony Parker over Jason Kidd 😂 but I also am not trying to make Colin be something he isn’t. He can still be great in his current skill set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind Character Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) There is no offensive flow or offensive rhythm with RJ Barrett and Collin Sexton dominating the ball. They are both really good players with great/valuable skill but not a good fit as the advanced analytics reflect that they are close to the top at disrupting offensive pace, times the ball touches other hands, drastic decrease in teammate offensive RPM and movement, halt hockey assists, the number of one man dribbles is as high. Barrett is a blinders on lack of awareness pure scorer that can only use one hand. His assist numbers are apparitions and don't reflect injecting energy, life, flow, rhythm, creativity, inspiring team ball movement and playmaking like Ja Morant's assist numbers do. Ja is the only player in college basketball history to average 20 points and 10 assists per game over an entire season. Think about that. Two great scoring, slashing combo guards... one an elite facilitator. I'm All in on the Ja Morant-Collin Sexton pairing.

I would add if we are okay with an undersized backcourt and get the number 1, draft Zion and then use expirings and future assests to get Conley from Memphis.

He’s willing but he has 5 turnovers a game. He’s got a lot of work to do there. Very Westbrookish with his passing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way better potential as a passer than Westbrook. He'll get the turnovers under control at next level when he plays with more talent and gets more room. I think Ja and Zion are 1st team NBA/HoF Potential players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that same feeling. His stat line last night was just crazy! 17pts 16ast 11 rebs. First triple double in a tourney game since ‘12. JA can be a stud 1, Collins would be a very undersized 2 guard that already struggles with defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also he has 2 other teammates with a TOV% above 20% and those two had it higher than him. Leads to me like it possibly could be some of his teammates faults at creating the turnovers. I don’t think his TOs are strictly bad or irresponsible passing. If the Cavs are picking #2 he has to be the pick and they have to look on how to upgrade to a better and true 2guard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
