    Can also be very true. A part of him reminds me of Mike Beasley - a world of talent (obviously) but couldn’t figure it out upstairs.


    The part that has me optimistic is because KPJ just turned 20

    Good comparison with Beasley. Yeah he’s young but the odds of him actually having a lasting NBA career at this point are pretty slim let alone having a good NBA career. He’s not right upstairs.

    If he starts mouthing off, then let Hakeem slap him.

    Who are some examples of talented guys who started their NBA lives with bad attitudes and off-the-court failings but turned it around to have good careers?

    I mean Hakeem didn't really have off the court issues but he was known as stubborn and hot headed before his religous reformation.

    If anyone can get him right it would be Lucas. Kid just seems like a shitty human though.
