You spelled his name wrong @The Midnight . Let’s start appreciating players by knowing their names.

That joke never wheres out
You rang?
He's an arsehole, that who he is. Baby talking ************
Sorry I didn’t catch that.
Shut up
Collier's defense is probably his best attribute right now.
Everything else I'm kind of meh on. He can definitely get downhill, but I dont really believe in his finishing or passing ability all that much, but I like that he wants to pass. Just has to be less of a "Ok I have the ball I'm going to reset the entire offense for 10 seconds and drive with no time left". He really got exposed playing against Shead. Couldnt dribble against him at all and had to arm bar the entire time.
Can he be like Eric Bledsoe? A really dynamic high level backup, but kind of a mid-ish starter?

14, 6 and 11. Since he's been back, it's clear his ability to make plays and find guys in scoring position is unique on this roster.
I'm the biggest Collier apologist on the board and even I wondered if there simply wasn't a place for him in the guard rotation with Key and WCJ. I underestimated the fact he's just damn good at basketball. The offense is different and the team is just so much more fun to watch when IC is out there.
Also, it's very early, the sample is ridiculously small but it looks like he may have figured out nba length and understands how to finish at the rim.

After three games Collier is averaging 7 APG, equal to Keyonte but in way less minutes. And way ahead of WCJ. Collier is simply by far the best natural passer on the team, the fact that many people keep forgetting. He is also as good as WCJ in bringing the ball up while being pressured (looking at you, Keyonte!) and is as good as Keyonte in being able to drive inside and score (looking at you, Clayton!). If Isaiah can learn to knock down wide-open threes at the 35% clip he will be the (low-level) starter in the NBA.
