He negged me too... Funny thing was ive said a bunch of positive stuff about Portis. I just doubt his shooting form can be extended.

Don't disagree with Cy... He's always right guys.
 
I only neg post that are neg worthy. I don't care about disagreeing with me, but be smart about it. HH made a few good post and a few awful ones.

WC on the other hand, god damn son those are just awful.
 
People on here trying to say Portis has a slow release (cause this just in guys, when you are doing shooting drills on a new shot you take your time to focus on your form), I show in-game evidence of quick releases.

Who is right?

I'm right.

Which one was awful... The one where I said I watched his highlights and saw his shooting form was goofy... Go back and check it... I said as much at the time I watched the videos... No one cared enough to talk about it in detail.
 
I still like Portis and haven't changed my draft board. A guy with Portis' size, speed and feel is going to have an impact. He's just not a floor stretcher past 20 feet yet. Lyles probably can't shoot NBA 3s either right now.

Can any of you uneducated people tell me that is a slow release?

I understand anyone questioning his ability to extend his range, that is a legitimate opinion. To say he has a slow release or has been a bad shooter is just flat out wrong.

It definitely look a lot quicker there

I don't really know if he's gonna be good. Just got give you crap.

My biggest qualm with him is he kinda weird with I play mad thing.

That shooting drill did not look good either. You gotta admit that.

He started off badly, but after he airballed the corner 3 I believe he makes 7/13 of the 3's.

I'd like to see the other PF prospects do the same, unedited drill just to see. I think we see these edited workout vids and just assume players never miss in practice. Sometimes you have bad shooting days, even in a drill setting.

Milwaukee is very shallow at the power forward spot, where they start Ersan Ilyasova, who is entering the last guaranteed year of his contract. Jabari Parker and Giannis Antetokounmpo are both combo forwards, while potential free agent Jared Dudley (player option) sees minutes there as well. Portis is more of a traditional 4/5 who projects to be able to space the floor, which is an absolute necessity with the non-shooting Michael Carter-Williams as the primary ball-handler. His toughness and aggressiveness will be welcomed by Jason Kidd.

What Givony? You agree that Portis is going to be a floor-spacer?

You can stretch the floor with 18 footers as well. He's going to have a hard time staying behind the three point line because his right foot sets up a ways in front of his left. He needs to fix that or he's gonna shoot a lot if long twos. Memos foot had the same problem but it wasn't as bad.
