No Ceilings guys talking about the twins on this pod. You may not agree with these guys, but they do obviously put a lot of work into forming their opinion so I respect that. I only listened to the Ausar part so far, but here are some notes:
- Ausar defense may be "overated" because he's a gambler who always chases steals....but maybe that's a good thing? -- I actually think this is a good thing.
- OTE often turns into an all star game. If they are scoring 16 a game, 6 of them are coming off easy transition dunks etc.
- Games aren't always competitive because of the all star game setting
- Ausar has less to work on than Amen, lower ceiling but higher floor
- Ausar would be really fun to play with. Knows how to make the right pass and also move off the ball
- Igoudala comparison brought up. ---I brought up this comparison before, I think this is a very high end outcome for him, but still a reasonable comparison. Igoudala was an elite athlete, elite defensive hands, elite basketball IQ, and an outstanding ball handler/playmaker for his size. Ausar is good at all these things, but what happens if he's not elite at all these things like Iggy?
- Defensive hands are elite, but off ball defense can be a mixed bag (bad closeouts)
