    Nah breh, my point was it's odd to make two threads that are only about who's faster than him, as if being quicker than Thanasis is a benchmark or something. You are not even talking about skills or anything else, the whole point of the thread is who runs faster?

    Older and less polished. He's a great and explosive athlete and potential lockdown-defender, but needs to work on the fundamentals, especially ballhandling and shooting.

    Right now seeing him as a guy off the bench that you bring in for hustle and slowing down scoring wings.

    Compared to Giannis he is what Zoran Dragić is compared to Goran.

    Irrelevant. It's all about who runs faster.

    Could someone beat Thanasis in a one-legged 100m sprint? And who would finish third?

    Or to discuss other important things, who would win in a 100m sprint between PJ Hairston, Jabari Brown and Spencer Didwiddie? And what role would Sean Kilpatrick play in that story?!

    This thread has me excited for all the opportunities and fantasy matchups.

    Maybe we can start a 2014 Draft Prospect+D-Leaguers Fantasy Draft that is about building the fastest players for a hypothetical track&field tournament?

    If we keep our pick I hope we draft Lavine if he's still on the board.

    He can run faster than Thanasis Antetokounmpo. So there's that...

    I don't think he is a good defender. He doesn't have a nba body yet. He doesn't pass a lot. But he has high upside and can dunk(also i think he is the youger player in the draft,i am not sure). He is afraid to drive to the rim and has bad shoot selection. For me will be a very good scoring sixth man.
