    I know it's only been 3 games, but after watching all of them what do you think of these comparisons?

    Gary Trent Jr. -> Tim Hardaway Jr./Arron Afflalo
    Anfernee Simons -> Jeremy Lamb

    Gary Trent Jr. - What Buddy Hield was supposed to be/Aaron McKie (Portland fans remember him?)
    Anfernee Simons - Austin Rivers on steroids (don't laugh, he did make himself into a player)/POOR-mans Devin Booker.

    Yeah, the Starters said that one. He's taller and heftier than Barry and doesn't have the PG skills. I say poor man's young Mike Miller.
