[2022 NBA Draft/1-29] TyTy Washington Jr., PG, Kentucky

Yeah but it's ok, I think they'll figure it out sooner rather than later. Tyty will get more minutes on this home stand if Nix has a particularly bad game or two.

Tyty is still learning our system, he's really catching up both in terms of defensive coverage and fitness. A little patience is ok here.

 

I think youre missing the point. Ty Ty for "Learning the system" is leap years ahead of Nix. Nix has been playing awful and is still seen by Silas as the better option out of the two. This is a problem. He doesnt recognize things until he is forced and even still then with great results he reverts until he is forced to play them.

 

I have grown to love Tyty Washington.

No really, he showed more vision in a freakin' 1-minute clip than Nix all season.

 

It's really hard for anyone with promise to look worse than trash, which is why it was so surprising to me that Jaygup managed to do so somehow.

 

Nix is so bad as a back up PG and KPJ is also super bad as a PG that Tyty has become a god after giving us a solid performance last night. Start the man, put KPJ at the 3, trade EG.

 

This kid is a taller Tyus Jones. I mean that in a good way. Keeps the ball moving, always looks for his teammates, careful with the ball. Hope he can develop into a steady presence off the bench.

 

he looked good and he looks like he has a good NBA body for a PG. I'm excited to see him develop.

 

I second this!!

 

I'd put KPJ as backup to both Green and TyTy. Start either KJ or Tari at the 3.

 

Just no more Nix and no more KPJ the PG.

 

I don't mind KPJ playing part-time PG. When he plays with TyTy, let TyTy handles the ball. When he plays with Green, share with Green (and Sengun) for the creator load.

I really believe that TyTy playing with Green, Smith, and Sengun will make this team look much better and increase everyone's efficiency.

 

Fixed it for you.

 

TyTy is DEFINITELY a better PG than KPJ. I'm not even talking about Nix at all, he is not even an NBA player. I'm talking about KPJ! KPJ might be a better scorer than TyTy, but we need a calm, steady PG who gets everyone involved. That's NOT KPJ!

 

Tyty was supposed to be a lotto pick. Just injuries have always sidelined him. He’s gonna be very solid at worst.

 

TyTy just getting back. Let the boy come off the beach before he injures himself again.

 

You're just way too worried about such a small thing in the big picture, and I don't share your concern about these micro errors.

I'm glad we have Tyty, he's a very interesting prospect. I'm glad we're winning games with a super young core.

 

Developing our players the right way in a rebuild is huge. The time players spend on the court and picking and choosing who the best players to play at a certain times together are while assessing talent is monumental. What on earth are you talking about? You sound clueless.

 

Yes

 

You're so dramatic man. There's hundreds of things just as important. You're making a big deal about a small problem.

We're not talking about "developing our players the right way" - this is just you expanding this problem. It is important to develop players the right way, and there are many right ways to do that.

All we're talking about here is that Tyty should get a shot which we both agree with. You can't seem to focus on anything we actually discuss.

Btw it's time for you to f*ck off to my ignore list because in the two exchanges I've had with you, your reactions to my disagreement is to childishly claim that I don't know basketball or I'm clueless. What are you, 12? I don't have time for things like that. Basically, you don't have your sh*t together so it's time to go and good riddance.

 

TyTy looked like budget CP3 out there. Him and Alpy are such natural passers man it's insane.

It's crazy to me that KPj and Jalen can be staggered with actual playmakers and the coaching staff would rather play them together inefficiently. Can't get over how good TyTy looked against the Heat no less. Not sure how he fell so far down the draft.
