Hey Everyone... Lets Chill on Writing Hendricks Off... TIA

[HermanG]

I was calling Bilal the French Michael Jordan and.was desperate.we traded picks to get him. I probably still overrate him but dang it! We could have had Dunn, KG, Bilal, Ochai, Kessler as our 2nd unit.

Bilal has looked very good. I only worry that the Wizards end up turning into some obnoxious Jordan Poole one man show and that will hurt him a bit.

Poole went for like 50% usage in the first half against the Knicks and absolutely did not look to pass the ball..... In a freaking preseason game.

He's two years away from being two years away.

Just wild to me the guy billed as a shot blocking super athlete hasn't had a single highlight moment in 60 preseason minutes. He looks like a guy I would have some hope for if you told me he was the 35th pick but I would still be on the fence about.

You can call it hating all you want, but he gave us nothing on film to get excited about. I would be shocked if he gets any minutes this year unless the Jazz turn on a tanking effort. At this point I'm a bit concerned the G-League is going to be too much for him.

I think it's not a great sign when a rookie looks as raw as Hendricks. If you read through the draft thread, the people who loved Hendricks billed him as being NBA ready. I havent given up on him (not that I ever believed in him to a large degree, but I think he should be a solid role player one day).

How many of the rookies are 19 years old? I honestly don't know the answer, just thinking about it. It's pretty unusual that we drafted three 19 yr old freshmen.

Holy cow. I guess a lot of them were/are. Maybe has something to do with why a lot of the rookies aren't looking awesome so far.

A ton. Most teams draft freshman in the first round.

All the rookies are 19 years old.

Every single rookie in the league gets the benefit of doubt in the preseason!

Except one, apparently. . .

Other rookies showed flashes or things that are interesting.

We drafted a stand in the corner shooter who can't do a single other thing.

Not this again.

Had a thought...

No matter how bad Hendricks he won't be as disappointing when we used 3 on Kanter
