Markelle Fultz = Glenn Robinson.....Lonzo Ball = Jason Kidd......Jayson Tatum = Grant Hill

[Swagnificent]

It just hit me. I believe this years draft is just like the 1994 nba draft.

In 1994, the top 3 picks were:

1. Glenn Robinson
2. Jason Kidd
3. Grant Hill

In 2017, most people have the top 3 as:

1. Markelle Fultz
2. Lonzo Ball
3. Jayson Tatum

I'm not saying these guys games are similar. I'm just saying this is the quality of player I think each will be.

Fultz will out up empty numbers like Big Dog Robinson on teams that never win. While Ball and Tatum will be the stars of this draft like Kidd and Hill turned out to be.

 

[Buggsy Mogues]

All 3 of those comparisons are fukking terrible

 

[Gangstar8]

Give me Grant hill anyday

 

[RebelHebrew]

Tatum will be a bust. His ceiling is Gallinari

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

This thread = one star.

 

[CantStop]

This thread = one star.

I'll take woat sports opinion for 200 Alex

"Kyle Lowry is greater than Jason Kidd in his prime"

Who is @Gil Scott-Heroin

That is correct!

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Jason Kidd is on point imo...


Lonzo is JK 2.0

I'm not comparing playing style. I'm predicting impact in the NBA. Similar to how people said LeBron would be the next Jordan eventhough they played nothing alike.

Fultz will be a bust like Glenn Robinson. He'll put up empty numbers on losing squads.

Lonzo will be a Hall of Fame PG that will turn a team around like Kidd.

Tatum will be an all-around stud like Grant Hill and make several all-star games.

 

[Dwight Howard]

Most people have jackson going 3

 

[Swagnificent]

Tatum will be a bust. His ceiling is Gallinari

Nope. He's the second best player in this draft.

He's a Paul George type player.

The lord of the coli, First of the Seum has spoken

 

[Adebisi_Said]

2 of the 3 comparisons are based on skin tone and school affiliation.

 

[The Fire]

Jackson > Tatum

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

I'll take woat sports opinion for 200 Alex

"Kyle Lowry is greater than Jason Kidd in his prime"

Who is @Gil Scott-Heroin

That is correct!

"Curry fell off, and is no longer a top 5 PG in the league" - @CantStop
"Spurs will get the #1 seed" - @CantStop
"Randle is better than Jabari and he'll be the best PF in the league" - @CantStop
"D'lo will be a superstar in 2016/17" - @CantStop
"Lakers will make the playoffs and upset the Warriors in the first round" - @CantStop
"Harden is the best player in the league" - @CantStop

What a season for @CantStop. It'll only get worse because he loses regardless if the Cavs or the Warriors win the title.

glenn robinson went to a eastern conference finals
and if it wasn't for injuries that made him retire at 32 was on pace for a hall of fame career number wise
