    Has anyone noticed Jeremy's footwork. I duno but the highlight videos I've seen, his footwork stands out to me as being very very good. Just two cents, we won't know until the season starts but I think this is a killer draft pick.

    Lol, same here. When I watched that it straight up sounded like Francis.

    Competed with Team USA at the U19 FIBA World Championships... Led the U.S. to fifth place, leading the team with 16.2 points per game and 18 steals in nine contests... Exploded for 35 points in a 109-107 victory over Lithuania.

    Now if we can just get our opponents to play their 20 year old players and wear Lithuania jerseys, we got a chance.

    LOL there are lot of criticims about Jeremy Lamb, but being lazy is not one of them, which is apparent from seeing:

    1. His skillset, this dude doesn't rely on his athleticism to score
    2. His footwork, footwork isn't inborn, it is learned
    3. His conditioning, this dude may have Melo's babyface, but he doesn't have Melo's babyfat.

    He is reported to be rather shy, which often comes off as lazy or arrogant. He is a prankster and jokes around a lot according to college teammates, but only with those he knows well.

    Kyle Lowry will probably ask him to carry his bags...

    Then Lamb will throw one down on him in practice and ask him the same.




    It's not like he'll have Tim Duncan or Kobe giving him the business. I wouldn't take **** off of Martin either. Maybe Scola. Maybe. I doubt Scola would do something so ridiculous, he always seemed to be focused on balling.

    His father is a pastor,that probably has a lot to do with the reserved demeanor and his faith ... some of you just should go look in the mirror before bringing all the negativity on someone you don't even know ...Personally all I care about is what he does on the court.

    It might sound arrogant but if I was a rookie I wouldn't be carrying nobodies bag either. I would have had the same reaction, like wth are you talking about

    You should post that entire quote instead of cherry picking one sentence. People try using that line against Lamb without understanding where it came from.

    Didn't watch the video, but hazing in general is dumb and mean spirited under the guise of a "bonding experience."

    What are you talking about?

    That line means he knows NBA talents have to work to reach their potential. That is a positive mentality to have. He doesn't expect Drummond to coast on his talent and abilities with a poor work ethic, so why would he think he can do the same 7 inches shorter? I like that.

    Maybe YOU should read my entire post because cherry picking one sentence and saying I'm using something against a player I'm clearly defending. :p
