Uh...I was responding to a response about performance at age 20, not performance as a rookie. LeBron was more impressive at 20 than Towns.

It's a good sign that they were able to take control in the third. I was worried. The Jazz have had trouble with playing to the level of competition. 3 wins in a row would be the first time this season.
Hood is putting together a very nice string of games. Favs is great.
Booker has had a lot of great games and a fair amount of terrible games. I think it comes with the territory of the emotional energy persona. I do know he loves playing here.
I think we will see some more pump fakes on Rudy in the future. I don't think it takes him long to get over it though.
24 assists is a very good sign! 18 is league worst, 24 would be 5th-6th best if we could average that.

I'm not convinced Wiggins is a transcendent talent. He's a great athlete. Will still be a good player, but nothing like a Lebron or KD.
I'd still Parker over him, and I'd take Lavine over Wiggins
Wiggins just doesn't do much else besides score. Which is why he will still be good. But where are the assists, rebounds, steals, blocks ?

I can nearly guarantee a Jazz loss Monday. We choke putting together winning streaks.
You can't be serious.
Wiggins, while I agree I don't think he is going to be a top-10 player, is still a two way monster. The only thing that really worries me about him is the lack of a 3pt shot.
He is miles ahead of LaVine and light-years ahead of Parker.

LeBron also nearly took that team - whose third best player was either Jeff McInnis or Drew Gooden -- to the playoffs. Not saying Towns doesn't look great, but you don't have to go back further than LeBron (or maybe even KD) to find a more impressive 20-year-old.

Lavine could seriously be one of the best players in the NBA if he wants to. He just has to want to be great. I think what's just as impressive as his hops, is how fast he is. He runs like a cat. It's long quick strides.
He just needs to sharpen up his handles, defense, and decision making. I think the handles will come. He's shown some nice things he can do with the ball, but has shown to have a loose handle at times too though.
I think that people might just start talking about as being better than Wiggins some point soon.
I'm really hoping he figures it out. Will be a joy to watch.
