He's been very good so far. If he can continue to shoot 50% from the field then he will definitely have proven me wrong. I don't find it that likely, but we'll see Ed O.
I was off on my evaluation as well. He looked like the real deal when he played us here at the Garden and Williams is performing at a pedestrian level. Really liked what I saw from Tristan Thompson too.
Did you delete the part in your post from June where you took an opinion? Or are you coming in eight months later and criticizing my opinion? It sure is easy to do after the fact, huh? In any case, Knight is not setting the world on fire, but he's getting regular time at PG and he looks like he's going to get better. I still might prefer Williams/Knight to Irving/Thompson, although the jury is still out. I think Williams has a better chance of being a really special player, although Irving is proving me wrong so far. Ed O.
i thought kyrie was a weak #1 overall, but he has been playing great, and props to zagger for sniping this one from 1000 yards!
It was an easy opinion to make when I made it the first time, Ed. Your evaluation skills kind of suck. No big deal, but you have been adamant about your scouting theories, and they all have been proven wrong lately. I'd pull up your nonsense about Rubio from BBB.net, but I've done that before, and it didn't deter you from playing the expert. I do appreciate the strong stances toward draft picks, but at some point, you have to own up to your failures as a talent evaluator, right?
Watching the occasional Duke game isn't watching college hoops. I give Zags credit for this. He and I know the college game better than anyone else on this board, and he has some great takes on college players.
We all do. The draft isn't an exact science. That said, at this point, I'd rather have AmmO on the team than Pavlovic. This bench has nobody who can even attempt to create a shot on their own. Not worth a #2 pick, as Zags staked his reputation on, but still would have been a better option on the bench than this band of clods.
