No.. you also need to be humble to realize what you need to work on in your game.
Burks is too cool for school for me...

Hi David Locke!
OK guys - the video you've all been waiting for - DX's scouting of MCW. It wasn't too bad actually. He's long and has quick feet - so he should be a pretty good perimeter defender (ala TayShaun Prince?). Imagine him at PG, Hayward at SG, Greek Freak at SF and Favors & Kanter. That's a pretty good defensive team already.
He can create for himself and others - being able to feed Favors and Kanter would be GOLD. With his drop offs, he could probably give Favors 2-3 easy buckets/dunks per game, easy. Also, unlike Marshall last year who can't score, MCW has a solid first step and can get to the rim (he just needs to get better at finishing).
Weaknesses - his shooting mechanics aren't broken - he just needs to get up more shots and be consistent with it. Also he needs to get stronger to be able to finish at the rim - but he should be able to do that over time IMO.
For me, we need to get either MCW or Schroeder at #14. As long as we can get 1 of them I'd be happy.

Holy ****, just watched the weaknesses part and this guy can't even dribble against pressure.
Pass, pass, pass, pass. This dude is like Alec Burks minus the natural offensive ability.

I bet $10 you just fast forwarded to the weaknesses part.
Please guys, when considering MCW, consider him as if we're picking him at #14. Cos that's what we're looking at here. He's not a top #5 talent - yes I do get that. And McCollum is looking like he'll be top #10 - so for those still dreaming - stop the dreaming.
If you take Kendall Marshall who's a much lesser talent - he went #13 in last year's LOADED draft.
We're talking MCW who's a much better athlete, similar level of shooting & passing, but can get to the basket at will. We're looking at him at #14 in this watered down, weakest-in-ages draft.
Please keep this in mind / in perspective.
I want nothing to do with MCW.
