    I don't see the Jason Kidd level comparison that Suggs has been getting, what am I missing?

    Ha. Interesting comp. Can we trade him and Cato for Pippen? Is Pippen in this scenario Ben Simmons?

    I don't know anything about Suggs, but what made Kidd so heralded coming into the league was his ability to defend and dribble and pass at crazy full-throttle speed. His passing was elite-level. His priority was always to pass the ball and look for others; he was rarely looking to score.

    Right?

    Yall can argue about this for months but a big part transitioning to the NBA is the mental aspect which is hard to predict.

    You don't know how a young guy is gonna act when you give him bags of money or if just making the NBA is enough for him.

    So many of these guys are can't miss future NBA stars until they aren't anymore. Yall should be cautious about making definitive statements that this guy is going to be better than that guy, none of these guys are guaranteed to be anything in the NBA. Just a hope and a dream that we draft the right guy with the right talent and right mentality.

    So I'm not planting my flag on any of these guys, they all have their pros and cons.

    If Suggs could become a shooter as good as Lonzo Ball is now would you take him ? I say yes

    One man's opinion. Not saying I agree or disagree, just sharing. Gil isn't a scout and the NBA game is played differently than the college game, but Arenas shared his concerns and observations.
