Would love to pick him up if he slips. Same with Tari Will be interesting to see how high or low he goes... as it speaks to the premium of shooting. I personally don't like any other aspect of his game that much. Was really bad defensively. Can't ballhandle. Best blend of character and skill set... full sweat all the time... professional mindset? Lol... these are random reaches. And the Rudy Gay comp is a bit wild. Was Gay ever a plus plus defender? These top 3 guys all seem high character, high professionalism already, but will see.
You've got to take the best available player in a draft, turnover on NBA rosters is very high. Wall, EG, possibly KPJ and Nix, could all be gone this time next year.
The Gay comp is actually pretty good but Gay was a better ballhandler. Gay was a good defender not great but I don't really know if Smith is this great defender, people make him out to be I don't think he will be bad on defense but do we really know if he is a plus defender?
I don't know... i guess in hindsight i really don't have a great feel for Rudy Gay's professional career, lol.
I love this Kennedy Chandler; super smart basketball player. Praying we take him with a late 1st rounder; would be nice to have a real point guard on this team. https://hoopshype.com/lists/nba-draft-kennedy-chandler-interview-chris-paul-jeff-teague-comparison/
Gay was a guy who had all-world talent who just never figured it all out, he finally got traction when he started to be played at the 4. He was more like Paul George than Smith I see a lot of parallels with Gay.
These articles are killing me. Need to drop Chet's value, not keep raising it. Damm! That said, Green really needs to work with P3 on his landings.
