Who Was Worse: Rookie Cody or Rookie Dante?

It has nothing to do with the post you responded to, and if anything highlights a big mistake in judgement. It’s 6 games in but we know for sure that Cody did not fit into an NBA team right away. Draft isn’t a perfect science, but all that tweet highlights is a mistake in judgement.

Film tape shows the physical abilities and potential of a player. Whereas, obsession about stats on an 18 y.o. is often misleading. I assure you, this is why Cody was drafted in the top 10.

Cody has the potential to be a very good and impactful player. We don't know yet if he'll reach that potential or not.

Where did I say I didn’t know he was drafted I the top 10? I know why he was drafted. You are trying to argue with against me with things I never said. I don’t even know what point you’re trying to make. Anyone can have opinions about anyone drafted at any point in time.

I never even brought up a stat in this thread. You, in fact, are the only one of use who mentioned a stat. You’re arguing against your own tweet which uses stats from an 18 year old.

If you quote my posts, please respond to something I said and don’t argue against something that was not said. I am not confused about why Cody was drafted in the top 10. I am simply stating my opinion about him.

Exum played all 82 games his rookie year. Cody missed games last year to a couple injuries. So how do you know Cody isn’t made of glass he’s played 5 games. Lol. I’m not saying he is made of glass but how do you know he’s not.

“So far…does not appear to be made of glass” is actually much different than saying I know that he’s not made of glass. :rolleyes:

He isn't playing with the ball in his hand right now. He's mostly standing in the corner waiting to catch and shoot, at which point he's missing his shots. He played with the ball in his hands in Colorado, which is why people know he can do it effectively. He had some nice drive-and-kick scenarios last night, but guys were then missing open shots he set up for them.

They have given him the ball plenty and he dribbles aimlessly for a few seconds then passes
 
Some 2024 mock drafts had Cody ranked as a top ten pick
So Jazz taking him at #10 seems about right

Just gonna keep shooting yourself in the foot I see. Kinda like putting the barrel of a gun in your mouth and pulling the trigger metaphorically speaking, of course calm down.

You know that only works depending on where the gun is pointing. Point it more sideways and straight in and it is a great way to quickly remove some teeth. Point it back and off to the side a bit and you get a second mouth, ala Fight Club. But point that sucker straight up in the roof of your mouth and now your talking. Well you won't be talking any more, but you get the gist.
 
Im not saying he wont get better, but he his showing hyper concerning red flags that remind me alot of the Exum red flags.
