    Default Flagg can't "go off" like Bird - he has no jumper by comparison

    Today's spaced out, hands-off format = robotic scorers and skills, such as downhill/PNR spamming.. It's simpleton basketball that underperforms favored talent in tougher international formats.

    Otoh, the lesser spacing and physicality of previous eras produced sophisticated scorers that developed the touch and instinct to score in traffic and off-the-cuff.. This contrasts with today's spacing and predictable scoring.

    TLDR: Bird was a natural, pure scorer with goat instincts that could go OFF... Flagg can't go off because he has no jumper compared to Bird.. This guys is seriously overhyped and will settle in around Gordon Hayward level.. Maybe Kirelinko.. Something along those lines - this caliber will be treated like it's the best ever, so it will take about 5-7 years before everyone admits that he's nowhere near Bird.

    At one point, Tom Gugliotta was 18.

    There's a lot of good white players in today's game like Bogdonovic, Markkenen and others.. Flagg will be on this level.. Not Larry Joe Bird, smh

    3ball has shitted on pretty much every big prospect in the last few years and turned out to be wrong.

    I’m no betting man, but I bet you draymond hits this soft Maine boy in the mouth or the jaw real easy and this poonanny has it coming. I’m tired of rich boys taking over the league. Let’s get back to Allen Iverson and Stephon Marbury and arenas pulling guns on a plane against his teammates. F*ck these rich boys. Buncha poosy entitled hoes with no heart. The league is so soft. Y’all know the wnba goes harder than the nba nowadays. We need fights bring it back to Ron artest and the pistons/pacers let’s get some smoke I’m from south Chicago born and raised and we threw down for ours. These poosy ass boys better raise up before the harder trannies take their place with a crown on it. Let’s get down with the gang aka the business. Nothing is more exciting than south Chicago during June slanging rocks and people saying give me 5 for 4 as you blaze up and wait for the the other set to show up 3 cars deep. Love it. Got scars to prove it. I’ll bang all day let’s play. These soft ass poosy young generation are a bunch of hoes.

    Look at that cringe worthy so called poster above me. Discord moderator going rogue. Punk bitch wouldn’t know what to do in a situation. You’re no blue gill, but I’ll take the bait cuz I’m bored. Look at its’ posts. She is an admitted tranny in the off the court forum and talks about doing coffee enemas.

    Larry was 19/20 as a college freshman and he shot 168/200 (84.0% FT on 7.1 fta/g) in 28 games. He'd stay at Indiana State for another two seasons and shoot 542/659 (82.2% FT on 7.0 fta/g) over 94 games for the Sycamores.

    Cooper was 17/18 at Duke and shot 179/213 (84.0% FT on 5.8 fta/g) & 52/135 (38.5% 3PT on 3.6 3pa/g) in 37 games. He shot (on limited volume) 41.4% and 43.5% on pull-up & off-screen three-point shooting. He showed dramatic improvements as the season progressed:

    Last 27 games: 44.4% 3PT on 3.7 3pa/g, 87.7% FT on 6.0 fta/g)

    It's way too early to put any kind of cap or ceiling on Cooper. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he becomes an 85%+ FT, 37-40%+ 3PT, 45% mid-range level of shooter. He could become just as good a shooter as Bird. Hell, KD shot 40.4% 3PT and 81.6% FT in college; Klay did 39.0% and 82.7%.

    Tired of the racist thought track. He’s white so player comp has to be a white person. I see Flagg, the ***, as a Jerry stackhouse/jamal mashburn clone. You know clones, right? Like Jamie foxx, Gucci mane, and Eminem. That’s what Flagg is.
