Are handles really Jabari's Problem?

Not sure about that. Lets take a look at tTm Duncan, who mind you came into the league at an older 21, did not take people off the dribble much even in his rookie year. he had a lot of turnaround js like Jabari will have but Jabari is the better shooter. TD was stronger in the post so could bully folks more there but break guys off the dribble?? Jabari has more potential there

 

Duncan had a myriad of post moves unlike Smith, they are nothing alike and nobody plays on the post like Duncan did Embid is the modern-day Duncan, and his dribble package is better than Smiths.

Duncan did not have to take people off the dribble he could dominate them in the post, unlike Smith.

Jabari has more potential in the post?

Um no, Duncan was Dream-like in the post and Smith has shown very little of that.

Duncan shot over 65% on 2-point shots as opposed to Smith's 42%.

 

didnt say Jabari had more potential in the post, but he has more potential to "break guys off the dribble" than Duncan for the simple fact he is younger and more agile than TD was entering the league. plus the league today is more accepting of big men doing that. Embiid may be the modern day Duncan for post moves but Embiid is a better dribbler than Duncan ever was.

 

We got enough (dribble the air out of the ball ) type guys on this team..

Porter
Green
Christopher
Nix
TyTy
Gordon (if not traded)

now add shooters, floor runners, Dog Defenders , floor spacers, unselfish players who don’t need the ball..

Jabari
Tari
Tate
Mathews
Martin
Garuba

And then there is Sengun…
The high post low post passing and scoring threat

 

This right here is the answer
Number 1 and 2

He’s not a center so don’t play him as one it’ll only wear him out

He should be aiming to be a KD light, and he should know that his efficiency will come from back to basket at the elbow, he can survey the floor and pass out, use a back to the basket move, if he is being guarded by a bigger guy then he’ll be able to move out and hit threes. Instead he camps at the 3 point line with a guy in his face who knows he wants to shoot the 3, that’s what I do when playing with the scrubs at LA fitness so that should tell you how horrible of a game plan that is.

He needs to dribble from one side of the court to the other side of court while not looking at the ball or feeling uncomfortable when someone is guarding him while dribbling.

 

Smith is more agile than Duncan?

How did you come to that conclusion, Duncan was one of the most agile big men of all time.

Agility has nothing to do with dribbling so it does not matter if he is more agile.

Yes, Embid is a better dribbler than Duncan but that has bearing on the discussion what's your point.

 

You misclassed Tate who was a black hole when he touched the ball last year.

 

i think he got fed up with those dribbling accustations. He just needs strength to pull it off in nba

 

It’s the ball’s problem.
