I pushed the Bilal propaganda heavily before Ainge showed up in France but yes I remember you were from the beginning behind him..

Baggage isn’t the right word I think… Russ just was like a Ferrari with no brakes. It was wild and exhilarating and terrifying and maddening… I think Scoot could be just way more cerebral. If Scoot can’t figure out the shooting fully he might just be like a rich man’s prime Bledsoe. I don’t think he’s risky at all but I can see scenarios where he’s underwhelming but still good.
Just a casual AF mix of prime Russ and CP3 huh?
What if he’s just playoff Don?

I think Cam Whitmore is the guy that the Jazz should want to target the most. Hopefully, there’s a reasonable trade that can allow them to move up to get him. Think he’d be amazing to team up with Lauri & Kessler.

Trust me I heard it as I typed it. What I meant was he’s like Lebron but better lol. The way he ran pick and rolls and shot in the midrange just had CP vibes… and then the athleticism is just bonkers.
I think Don is so reliant on three point shooting and Scoot won’t be that type. Scoot is going to be a few classes higher as a passer too. Maybe similar tier of player is the high end for Scoot. Amazing lead guard with some flaws.
Biggest looking 6'2 dude I've ever seen
That's the same thing I said lol he looks taller then 6'2.
Hard to say unless we had both of their official measurements. The with or without shoes thing is a huge swing.
I’d say they’re close enough for the comp to be valid. And yes, Westbrook didn’t have the baggage when he came into the league because baggage is something you accumulate through time/experience.
And if that is 6’ 2” without shoes then in years past he’s be listed as 6’ 3” or 6’ 4”. Also looks to have a seriously + wingspan.
Would love to know the facts of his measurements in addition to why he didn’t want to do them. I’m happy the league is tightening the rules on combine invites.
