    Looks like he could join stockton malone and gobert on their mt. Rushmore. The sooner they trade lauri and build around bailey the better

    Saw IT after his 2nd summer league game. He has IT. Sounds like he loves basketball and works hard. Only thing standing in his way is injury.got rid of his agent that got him to utah with his idiocy already!

    A few years ago this post would've baited dozens of posters.

    The highlights missed a good drive. One knock on Ace in college was that he settled for jumpers too much instead of attacking the basket and finishing. I felt that part of the problem was the poor spacing at Rutgers.

    I expect we'll see more of this from now on.

    He took a couple bad shots early but looked great once he got it going. Seemed to be automatic around the free throw line. Jazz wete missing probably 3 starters against the rockets best. It can only get better

    Yikes. I know it's one preseason game so who cares but with his size, length, and shot-making ability? Looks similar to a young dude who played in Toronto his first couple years in the late 90s.

    He's a little longer and jumper is a little clunkier. But still effective.

    Not quite the passer the other guy was though and probably never will be.

    Sky is the limit. He makes the game look easy. Shows potential at both ends. Made a chase down block. Was goaltending but high energy player. Saved another ball. Great mid range game. But looks like he should be a 3 level scorer. Im sure the spurs are wondering if they took the right guy

    It's not the Spurs that messed up. Harper was the clear number 2. It was Pilly and the Hornets that blew it. Thankfully they did because it allowed Tre to fall into our lap.

    My top 5 was

    1 Cooper
    2 Dylan
    3 Ace
    4 Tre
    5 VJ

    The gap between Ace and Tre is much smaller than the gap between Tre and VJ imo. I think Kon was 7 at best, and even that is probably a reach.
