Taylor Hendricks Hype Thread

He’s getting it off faster and his misses aren’t bad misses. The pump fake and dunk was also really promising. If he can do some of those basic things well it isn’t hard to score an efficient 18-20 while causing problems on defense.

I’m happy he is looking like the kid I saw last year when I watched him. His early play was troubling but made sense to me. He seems like a good kid and a hard worker but not some confident ego maniac type. He just needed a few confidence boosters to get started which is why I was super bummed he had no summer league.

Im just a lot more confident in his floor now. I still dont know what the ceiling really is, but he's active, useful in transition, and can shoot quickly.

I was just kind of worried he would be one of those athletes who just doesnt do much out there.
 
Jimi has that "beautiful" Bill Laimbeer arc to his shot where you are like how does that work?

He needs more arc on his shot though. It's quite flat right now, and I'm surprised each time it goes in. Which it does a lot!

Would anyone consider starting Hendricks Lauri Kessler immediately and having Collins come off bench

Consider it? Hell, that's 100% what I want. By far my favorite 3 frontcourt players.
That's why I didn't like the Collins trade when it happened. Cause I figured it would lesson the minutes those 3 would play together.

Nah. I would start Olynyk before Hendricks and try and get KO's value up.

Think KO is our best trade piece. Him continuing to have a great year could prove valuable. He's our best passer and probably should be starting every game to make thing easier on the guards.

Hendricks will likely get plenty of minutes once the trade deadline has passed and the Jazz have (hopefully) made some moves to offload guys to open up minutes for him.

Agreed. But ya, KO should get the start right now.

There are lots of ways to shoot it. More arc is nice but not completely necessary.
