    Tough to say. Not the MOST athletic, but he's scrappy and is focused on the fundamentals. High BBIQ.

    I'm thinking a better Kyle Korver? Perhaps a taller JJ Redick?

    Thats stupid. Reverse racism at it's finest. A better Kyle Korver? The greatest scorer in NCAA Mens BB history is gonna be Kyle Korver. Stupid.

    Slow
    Can't Jump
    Elite fundamentals
    Unstoppable post moves
    Wet jumper
    Great court vision
    Fiery leader

    Remind you of anyone?

    never seen defenses be so stupid when guarding one guy. This guy gets so many open looks its ridiculous. How do you leave him open?






    Idk how good he can be. If he has the same kind of offense built around him like he does at Creighton where he runs off 100 screens, he can be successful...but the shot clock is only 24 seconds so it would be hard to implement as successfully

    Glad stupid analysts stopped making such comparisons.
    Kevin Love's skills Make him this generation's Larry Bird

    Sports Illustrated: Adam Morrison vs Larry Bird

    Key to being the next Larry Bird = be White. Style/gameplay matters not.

    yall underrating McDermott...he can shoot the lights out and he has decent size. It's just that he's kind of a tweener. I don't see him at the 4 and I don't think he can stick 3s. If Chandler Parsons had his skill set he'd be top 3 in the league

    Haven't heard that name in a while, to compare that f[COLOR="Black"]u[/COLOR]cking piece of human garbage to Doug is an insult to the basketball gods.

    Reasonably I think Doug will be a multiple time all star, maybe he won't quite reach peak Birds dominance but I think a peak of 27/10/5 on great %'s is reasonable.

    If you want to compare him to a scrubby white player, then lets say he's a taller Kirk Hinrich with better shooting, post moves, court vision, passing, leadership, etc.

    I remember one draft website that compared Cole Aldrich to Larry Bird.
