Jabari got to play 31 mpg for 79 games, of course he had a few games where he had decent counting stats, it would be impossible not to. He improved massively from year 1 to year 2, but that doesn’t change how dreadful he was as a rookie.
Better rookie year than Reed is saying nothing. I am having a better rookie year than Reed! Jabrari is light years behind Blanchero and Chet. He has been a great disappointment for the high hopes we had with him coming out of school. Mobley got better by bulking up….Smith is still skinny and is very immobile and stiff offensively for his build.
Preach. Reed has not yet begun to fight. And Jabari will forever be misunderstood and under appreciated.
I believe banchero is the most overrated player in the league. I wouldn’t trade Jabari straight up for him. Orlando has a better record when he doesn’t play. Crappy shooter, crappy defensive player, slow footed. He is a better passer and he would be a terrible fit with Sengun.
Castle with 24 and 7 tonight at Memphis b-b-but he’d have never gotten PT if he was in Houston…cope Reed can’t even beat out Aaron Holiday for a rotation spot
This is ridiculous. One is 22 and the other 21.....way to predict anything. Banchero is going to be the triple dub threat sooner than later....... Ridiculous coming from a rival fan base, yeah, he had an injury and the year is over almost.
The problem is we’ve made him one dimensional. Bring the ball up, pass it into the post and then go spot up. He needs to play like a young Steve Nash. Drive it into the lane, under the basket and then back out to the three point line if nothing is there. Stop waiting for the defense to set up before we pass into the post. To predictable. Nothing against Holiday but I’m over watching him already.
I already know it. Ime would never play him over Brooks, or Jalen etc, or Eason, or Thompson....there is no room at the Inn for Castle. He is benefitting from being on a really bad team with no competition for his spot to speak of... DD
Eason, Thompson, and Brooks wouldn’t even be guys he’s competing with for minutes so what the hell are u talking about? Reed’s main competition is the elite, top tier Aaron Holiday, and he can’t even beat that…
Reed played 6 minutes of garbage time the other day and didn’t even record a field goal attempt…he’s content being subpar and doing nothing maybe his mom didn’t give him any positive affirmations that night
What if the issue is that you can't shoot well against NBA-level talent? Defense is hardly a priority in the G-League.
We aren't talking about Reed, we are talking about Castle, he can't shoot - are you saying he is a PG? DD
Reed can’t shoot either, and Ime was still giving him chances that he managed to fumble every single time…so that’s irrelevant Tari plays exclusively at the forward position Amen and Dillon Brooks play the majority of their minutes at the forward position as well… so Lord only knows why u brought them up Are u saying Castle is a forward? Castle is a combo guard who unlike Reed doesn’t play like a scared little child and is actually capable of doing more on the court than standing around and bricking the occasional three
Castle has a free throw rate of 31% Reed has a free throw rate of 7% Castle is averaging 16, 4, and 3 on 44/32/78 splits in his last 20 games Reed Sheppard is shooting 24% from the field and 22% from deep in his last 20 games
Wings...Castle is a wing, all the guys I brought up are wings. And yes, Reed has been bad in very limited minutes. DD
ah yes, the guy who was a guard in college and has played all his minutes this season at the PG and SG position is a “wing” u just say anything on here Castle is a combo guard…nice try tho
