Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant were measured with a wingspan of 6'11" James Harden has a wingspan of 6'11" as well........ Dwayne Wade also has a 6'11" wingspan. LeBron James has a 7'00" wingspan.... Jerry West had a 6'9" wingspan.... The last measurement for Jalen Green had him with a wingspan of 6'7" which isn't accurate..... you can tell by looking at his arm length, and that is still taking into account his narrower shoulders.
Men typically get married around 30 anyway. It just happens that 30s are the prime years for a basketball player. I doubt there’s any direct correlation.
Aight, we in it for the long run. Let’s hope these young bucks can achieve greatness in half the time in 5 years haha
I'm just going with what is listed, but I am glad to be wrong. I agree he does look longer. Either way I am Green Gang, and I hope he reaches his true potential. Exciting times are ahead of us
I can agree with that. I just want the usage spread between more than one scoring threat honestly. Want to avoid having a heliocentric offense again. 2018 Cp3/Harden showed me we needed a scoring guard/playmaker next to Harden from the beginning. Luka would benefit from having less usage and another dominant scorer next to him. I also think one of KP and Green need to be a good defender to avoid us just being Portland. Beal’s problem is him and Wall peaked at different times. Prime Wall and Beal together and healthy would’ve been contenders at the time. I also think LaVine shows out this year now that he has talent next to him like Booker did next to CP3
Agreed with everything except Wall and Beal portions. Neither Wall or Beal, together or separately, have proved they can carry their teams to success in playoffs.
If Beal can score 30 ppg on really good efficiency he can be a 1b on a contending team. He would still need a player of his caliber or better as a teammate but he definitely can contribute to a playoff team.
You’re right. They haven’t. I just think if Beal was the same caliber scorer as he is now while Wall was a 20 and 10 guy (and arguably the best PG in the East at the time). They could’ve carried the load together. Beal is somewhat of a late bloomer as a shot creator. It’s all hypothetical tho.
You always need at least a secondary scorer, and usually a third scorer as well in the modern NBA. I would agree with you on that point, BUT you need to have one guy that you can ride down the stretch that can score AND play make for you. I think we just really needed more high end talent next to Harden. For awhile Eric Gordon was the best player next to JH. Paul also is one of the 50 best players to ever play the game. Yes, Luka needs another true star player next to him that can score and defend. I agree 100%. It is also why I do not think Porter will be the long term solution. I think that the Rockets will ultimately end up with a more traditional point guard unless Green just shows a great ability to play make. Everyone thinks that the Rockets will look for a "big" in the draft next year because of the depth there, I actually think the Rockets will look for a point guard. I don't agree with this. Beal is just more of a secondary star because he cannot create for others. LaVine is an all star level player..... so is Beal and Booker...... they all are great scorers but they will never be alpha on their own team because they cannot create for others and they are limited in their ability to make the players around them better. They all are really good but will not be superstars.
He learns to shoot and put the ball on the floor well and his ceiling drastically improves..... most players that come in the league unable to put the ball on the floor never learn how too..... think Robert Horry..... but if Martin can put the ball on the floor and hit shots, he can be very very good.
speaking of WOOD- I hope he stops euro stepping his way to the cup through a crowded lane of big-footed defenders. leave that for the guards. Or do it when the lane is less crowded.
