What's new

Would anyone be upset if the Jazz selected...

Wait... Okogie says he plays hard... sign me up then.

I didn't like his comments in which he said something like it's about staying in the league, getting to the second contract or something. It just sounded, I don't know, too content.

Werent amazing? He was 40% every year on high volume. This was before the 3pt craze too. His numbers were insane for that time.

The college line is a joke. I'd hardly say it was amazing. Laettner, a decade earlier shot 55.7% on 2.8 attempts a game. Way less attempts but you get the point. 40% is not some amazing threshold. Hell, in 2000, Shane Battier shot 44.4% on 5.6 attempts and the year after, he shot 41.9% on 7.6 attempts. And that's pre-Redick.
 
I really do agree with Cy though about FT% being a strong indicator of perimeter shooting ability. So which of these wings has the best FT%?

Gary Trent Jr I think had pretty high FT%... high 80s if I'm not mistaken. Grayson Allen too...

Yeah, and Battier was a career 38% 3pt shooter...

And I just ignored what you said about Laettner because it made no sense. He had one good shooting year on minimal attempts. That's not the **** I'm talking about.

To be clear, I only think it's a strong indicator if we are talking about comparing guys as shooters to the greats.
 
They were really bad defensively. Not sure how much is on Allen, but many of the scouting reports mention slow lateral movement... they did mention he slaps the floor as the opposing point guard brings up the ball... so there is that.

The floor slap is a crucial part of any defense. Imagine if Rudy slapped the floor....... devastation would ensue. Probably a rule against it or something I reckon
