"He's probably going to be a jack of all trades master of none; but look at Championship teams they usually have a few of those guys" das right GT. I think he's going to be the highest level of that archetype.
A 19-20ppg, 36% 3pt, 5apg, 6rpg / really good defender. An upgraded Batum

I think if we fill the pieces around our young core of 3, they can lead us to being great - maybe great enough to win the Finals if the super teams stop forming

hell yea it is. Around the draft did you think he could be a 19-20ppg guy in the league? I'm still there. Add in the passing instincts we've seen, and I think this kid is a special jack of all trades

I agree with what Reggie Miller said tonight. They have no killers on this team. None of the young guys are players other teams worry can explode and take over a game at any time.

Wait, did I hear that right? There's a chance Russell might need offseason knee surgery? I don't know how closely I listened on my way home from work.

Also really enjoyed the coaching discussion. Gave me a lot of insight on things I just don't understand at all as a fan watching.

Noel is still my hope. Would take the sting off losing a lotto pick this season if we got him.

He is a talented and special "Jack of All Trades" similar to players like Chaunsey Billips and others.

They are seemingly without an engine that will make the pieces go at all times. Making mistakes because of youth is presently acceptable - allowing the team on the court to be confused, lethargic and lacking energy while not having the ability to beat single coverage could indicate that a different role needs to be developed for him while allowing the player the is a bonafide killer given the reins
