Zach Lavine's rise to greatness

I think he's a more athletic Alec Burks with better handles and similar IQ... FWIW.

Dude, Alec has always been an excellent rebounder for his position. It's what separates him from others. Zach Lavine was the worst rebounder in the NCAAs, and shows a lot of hesitancy to mix it up, in general. If he can do the one or two things he's good at, then fine, but if he's out of his comfort zone, he's a wuss. Nobody ever said that about Alec Burks.

Lavine can jump, so he's overrated.

You've been very outspoken about how LaVine won't be very good. Could you expand on that more for me and other people reading this?

What's this idea that jumping makes you overrated? Would you have said the same thing about Michael Jordan early in his career?

Why does being able to jump high make a player worse in your opinion?

What's the highest you have ever jumped?

Did you get made fun of when you would try to touch the rim and would only get net?

Well that's a very vague question, but I think you mean, why do I believe jumping helps you in basketball.

I believe it does because it can put you closer to the hoop which often results in a higher percentage shot. It helps you not get your shot blocked. It helps you rebound. It helps you block shots.

Now, why do you feel it's not a useful skill?

Name me ten all time great players who couldn't or wouldn't use jumping as part of their game.

And now tell me why you believe bull ****.

I'm not sure if you're serious, but he's saying that people overrate his basketball ability because of his flashiness. Not that jumping makes you bad.
