Thought about it for a while and went with Cason.

Black or Wallace?

I haven't listened to Locke in a minute, but I'm going to have to give this one a listen later.
Told u there should have been an option for “either”.
This is my confirmation bias speaking but that was pretty ****ing authoritative.
He did say that was entirely based on watching 2 games. He also said He sees intriguing things from both, just that Black has him more nervous with more red flags. So your loves one and hates one comment is exaggerated.
Ehhh… slightly exaggerated. Saying he just doesn’t see it with Black (like half a dozen times with serious concern on his face) in the footage or in the numbers in long form fashion and with specificity is about as pointed as Locke gets.
Saying he only watched two games is setting appropriate scouting context. But the stats are from the season, not just two games.
Just listened, and definitely going to take everything he said as the truth to confirm my bias. (I'll just ignore him saying he is basing this off of basically one game).
Truth is, I've watched way more games than Locke and feel pretty confident in my analysis that Cason is going to be a great NBA player.
I hadn't realized Cason ranked so high as an off the bounce shooter.
77th percentile at the rim for Wallace to 50-somethingth percentile for Black. Pretty good for an allegedly small guard vs an OMG GIANT SO ATHLETIC guard.
Japes aside, that one screamed at me.
I feel even better about liking Black. Locke sucks and routinely says **** where he has no idea what he’s talking about.
Locke said Wallace measured 6’2 at the combine.. is that true?
That’s tiny by todays standard if that’s true.
That’s tiny by todays standard if that’s true.
When Black goes in the top-8 and Wallace is still there in the late lottery I wonder how many people here will be wondering what happened.
