[Video] Patrick Patterson's NBDL Debut with Vipers

Good to see him on the court, but I didn't really liked what is saw.
Foul trouble, bad shot selections and a really weird hookshot (don't really know what it is). It's like he just throws it up and hopes it a bucket.

 

He is weaker than I expected. His post up game is underwhelming. He has a very long way to go.

 

He definitely looked out of sync. Hopefully it is just rust from not playing.

 

LOL! I didn't recognize him till the commentator said his name, didn't think he was still hanging around trying to make the NBA.

 

you must be kidding. Paterson is not even an NBA talent. That's a bust for 14 th pick.

 

After watching the game live, I was a little disappointed. Bad boy Sean Williams, formerly of the Nets, ate his lunch. The impressive Viper was Richard Roby -- a much better prospect than Jermaine Taylor. Mickell Gladness was a shot-blocking pogo stick -- too bad he is so thin.

 

Ohhhhhh no, he missed some shots and got some fouls...BUST!
Calm down wanna be critics.

 

I really liked what I saw from C Mickell Gladness, and PF Patrick Sullivan. IF both continue to be productive I could see us calling them up after the trade deadline when we kill some unwanted depth.

Solid will be the footnote on his career. George Lynch type of tweener. He wont be a bust, wont be a star. He probably wont even be as good as troy murphy. He fits in with the rockets persona right now.

 

Usually, highlights make anyone look good. Not so in this case.

 

We didn't need a point guard.

 

We didn't need a Power Forward ...

 

Is this dude even good at all?

 

Looking back at the draft maybe we should have gone with somebody else, Patrick's hook shot and jump shot don't even have proper form, this guy needs a lot more development than I originally thought ~ sigh

 

If he becomes a solid player,it will be good enough for a 14th pick. He is far away from producing right now.

 

I'm starting to question Morey...He said Patterson was the 6th best pick in his opinion....are you kidding me?

 

Patrick Patterson was the third best player on his team last year. You have to wonder if some of his stats were inflated because teams had to double team John Wall and DeMarcus Cousins. Is he worthy of a 14th pick? Only if you are looking for a strong role player playing with Yao. If that’s why you drafted him, then you have to take into the equation how often Yao is injured for that pick to be successful.

I think that Morey did not make the right choice, but I hope I’m wrong.

 

Name 6 players in his draft who will have better careers than Patrick Patterson.

 

Please don't go spouting crap like a leaking sewerage pipe if you have no idea what your talking about. Patterson WAS kentucky basketball just a year before the arrival of wall/cousins, in fact, he may well have gone top 10 in 2009 had he decided not to stay behind to finish he's degree.

 

John Wall
DeMarcus Cousins
Evan Turner
Wesley Johnson
Derrick Favors
Paul George
Ekpe Udoh
Cole Aldrich
etc.etc.etc.

I'm starting to think Morey didn't actually had him at #6, I think he may have just said that to get fans excited...
