Well that explains why I saw him dunk so much. For someone who looked like FVV-ish height, it looked fairly easy for him (relative to FVV).
That isn’t completely true. Shoulder height and shape plays a role. Not just neck length. It matters more for front court players. Whether it’s a 7’9 or 8’1 standing reach as a guard, it’s all negligible. Can they finish amongst the trees is all that matters.
Shooting, defensive versatility, shot creation. Does that rule out Clingan completely? Zaccarie if you believe in his shooting has defensive versatility, but no shot creation or ball skills. Dilllingham has shooting and shot creation but negative defense. Topic has no defense or shooting but can drive and create for his teammates. Sheppard has shooting, ok overall defense(poor in some areas, elite in others), and questionable (but perhaps untapped) shot creation. No player covers all three areas perfectly but if we go by Udoka’s word Sheppard is probably the closest.
I 100% called we’d be talking about Reed having “sneaky” athleticism after he tests. Watch the games.
The whole unathletic talk was always stupid. Hes white so thats the first go to. The kid is obviously athletic when you watch him. You don’t do what he did and not be athletic
Yeah that block I linked against Miss State was a really athletic play. He’s in game dunked with 2 hands pretty easily.
He’s the type of dude that does just enough athletically. Never seems out of control. You can tell he has more in the tank when he’s going
Yeah I was surprised. You may be right on his athleticism. Curious how well his lateral quickness is going to come out
@Clutch if we pick him please lift my thread making ban so I can make one about him as reward for claiming him early.
