Man, I wish at least one of them was taller than 6'5". Oh well.

Harden strikes again.

The refs ruled it was an offensive foul and awarded Harden 6 free throws.

Not in the barefoot measurement: 6-4.75 according to Combine.

They play barefoot in 2020?

Probably gonna open up a can of worms with this comparison but his defense reminds of Delonte West before he went bonkers - good hands, good instincts and deceptive length. Good close out guy on the perimeter.

His three point mechanics made me puke - flashbacks of Ronnie Brewer.

Nah. Brewer is in his own category of busted.

Okay, my missed attempt at humor not withstanding, how would you compare their first three years?

Besides the ability to do this:



I would say the biggest thing was that Price looked like he had a path to play THE back up point guard on a team rather than A backup point guard. At this point Shaq looks like a spot defensive specialist who will get some minutes or no minutes based upon matchups. We certainly have a need for that, and I hope our player development is better than where he has been. and he really takes a leap forward.

The original post was bemoaning Oni and Royce not being over 6-5. Your reply implicitly accepted that ... Oh nevermind ...

No one foresaw the Utah Jazz making a roster addition right before their first preseason game of the 2020-21 season

New Utah Jazz guard Shaq Harrison eager to ‘fill that void’ as team’s perimeter defense ace

When guard Shaq Harrison signed with the Utah Jazz, Donovan Mitchell told Joe Ingles he "had some bad memories … of [Harrison] terrorizing him." Once recovered from a broken hand, Harrison is eager to do that to Jazz opponents.

I'm starting to see Shaq as filling a slightly different lane than Oni or Royce. All can be involved in switching 1-4. But I think each has optimal assignments:
Shaq: PGs & SGs
Oni: SGs & SFs
Royce: SFs & (some) PFs

This. Thankfully Royce won’t have to do every goddamn thing.

Ronnie Price had a 12 year NBA career. Shaq can only dream of that at this point. . .

Do you feel obligated to be an unnecessary wet blanket? You know as little about the future as the folks who are more hopeful.

Shaq has an elite-level skill. Let that soak in for a few minutes. Tia.
