This is why I'll never miss Grayson Allen

I hated the pick. Tried to talk myself into it after they took him. Can’t say I’m going to miss him at all. Still would’ve either traded up for Heuter or stayed put and drafted Simons. Those were the two guys that I thought would be within reach.

Allen is going to get wrecked at some point. The play by play guys mentioned that you can’t be sneaky if you want to do that. Go toe to toe and I’ll respect it.

Will never be respected by refs, and can never be counted on in key moments.

Ejected after 2 flagrants, tech.

In his defense, the 1st wasn't a flagrant. It was just a foul. He shoved through a screen. Happens all the time. Would the 2nd have been called on a star? I don't think so. The wind up looked bad, but he didn't even hit him that hard.

I think his facial expressions and lack of humility hurt him constantly. He just comes across as a prick.

would Old-School rep
 
The way it happened in sequence like that has to make you wonder about his ability to put things behind him and move on. He messes up once and starts to dig and dig... first he bricks two free throws and "fights through a screen" and then hits the dude in the head. Maybe it was just bad luck, but he doesn't seem to be able to focus his frustration into productive energy, its always negative.

I agree that he comes across as a prick, but I do think his gesticulations and arm swings would qualify both of those fouls as flagrant for most players and most refs regardless of star status. The second one in particular -- though he didn't make much contact -- could have done some damage if his aim was better. The dude has zero self-control and seems to have a major case of victim mentality.

Would spellman be that stretch 4/5 we so desperately need right now? Oops.

Lyles, Burke, Bradley, Exum, Kanter, Allen... the list goes on and on and on

He is a stretch mark big right now... he looks big in summer league... there was a reason he was traded for peanuts.
