The Church of Jarrell Brantley

[Saint Cy of JFC]

He dribbles better than Exum. Rebounds and goes better too. And I refer to his college career for his shooting and not going by small sample stuff where a couple of games skew things.

I mean you could just watch the games, or any of the summer league games he played in, or any of his college games to know these things.

Why else do you think a guy with his size, length, strength, and shooting ability barely got drafted? The idea that's he's better at Dante at dribbling is laughable when the one thing Dante is good at is getting to the paint off the dribble.

I like the idea of Royce off the bench with instructions to look more to score. It would add confidence to his offensive game playing against second units.

He can't score.

He can't score.

He can, and does. His only problem is passing up open looks. Shooting 44% from 3 he needs to take the open shot and against bench players his drives would find more success as well.

Making wide open shots is not scoring. It's making wide open shots.

Royce's 3pt % goes from 48% on "wide open" shots to 18% on just "open" shots. The guy's nervous system ****s up kind of bad whenever he is guarded. You can see it on the rare times he is forced by the clock to try and make something happen off the dribble when guarded.

This is not the kind of guy you instruct to score. At this point the Jazz should just b telling him to take more of the "open" 3pt looks he passes up every game. That's the ceiling for his individual offense.

I orginally thought he could develop some kind of drive game because he seemed like a really good passer, but that's mostly because he doesnt look at the basket on drives, not because he's some instinctual passer off the dribble.

Probably on defense, but he's literally better at nothing on offense than Niang other than dunking.

I bet he is better at getting to the line as well. Niang doesn't shoot free throws

That's the opposite of true though. Bradley is an ISO player.

were talking about Brantley— and he racked up assists with this team during preseason

...and finishing at the rim, off the pick-and-roll and in general.

Cy trying a little too hard to zag but he’ll join the bandwagon soon

Brantley is better than Niang.

Howard is better than Niang.

Morgan is better than Niang.

Very real possibility JWF and NWG are both better than Niang.

Bradley is better than Niang.

Exum is better than Niang.

Is there anyone who isn't better than Niang?

Um Niang was better than Bustum

Do you get points when it goes in ? That statement makes no sense sir.

It depends on match up but my preference would be to play Morgan as the 5 and Davis as the 4. If that doesn't work then you put Brantley as the 4.
