Gotta delete fam |
I don't understand these kids. While it's fine to make those jokes when you are a teenager, these guys have agents now and know they will be drafted. How do the agents not tell them to delete all their tweets? |
No background check will ever be as thorough as crowdsourcing it to the internet. I mean I'm going to guess that no agent probably even thinks to troll through every tweet an 18 year old kid made since high school. |
Tweetdelete . net and delete every tweet you ever sent. |

| It's a bit misleading to say he has the same hand size as Kawhi. Kawhi's hands were measured at 9.75" long and 11.25"(!) wide. By comparison, THT's hands are 9.25" long and 9.75" wide. Either way, they're massive especially for a 6'4 player, they're just not quite in Kawhi's neighborhood. |

From CBS on this fella...sounds promising:
Draft Prospect Outlook
Strengths:
Freakishly long wingspan (7-feet-1.25 inches) for an average height guard (6-foot-4); beefy and physical guard; due to unusual physical tools, a versatile guard/wing who can defend and play multiple positions in the NBA; plays like a veteran despite being one of the younger prospects in this class due to above average feel/instincts; can be a good shot creator
Weaknesses:
Sometimes lacks focus and fire as a defender; he's capable of being a consistent force and physically imposing, but doesn't always show it; ball-handling is an area of focus that will need improvement; a good driver to the basket, but when defenses throw stuff at him unexpectedly he often makes poor reads
Deeper Dive:
• Pro comparison: Mix between PJ Tucker and Eric Gordon
• Still 18 years old, the youngest college prospect in the draft class

Often makes poor reads, when he flashes advanced ones?
Ok.

When THT gives Kawhi a high five, we'll feel it on the Richter scale. |

You actually want him to study under LeBron.

Wow I’m liking this pick already, another good find by Jesse and Joey. |
A good find by Lakers scouts? He's represented by Klutch. That's how he got drafted. |
Are you sure you are properly attributing cause and effect? |

Wow, is this going to be a thing like Larry and Kobe? Larry had to address it and apologize and all that. History repeating itself, another rookie coming in with a history of dogging the teams current aging alpha. LOL! |
