Dude is fragile, slow and soft


I don't see any of that changing, especially the first two
:what:

You're of the impression that KP is slow for a 7'3 athlete? What makes you feel that way?


And fragile, breh? If KP is fragile, a breh like Embiid is as alive as a whitewalker.

Soft? He does not avoid banging and putting his body on the line for a bang, I'm not getting you.

Again, do you feel Nowitzki was a valid first option for Dallas?

Besides being White him and Dirk didn't play the same so stop it Dirk actually had an offense game besides shooting threes just stop it comparing them too KP wasn't playing SF when he first started so why are you comparing him

Being White?

nikka... save that shyt for the locker room forum. I've grown up enough not to be on some self-hate shyt associating black skin w/ hardened & intimidating persona. fukk are you, Kevin Hart on some "No, you're white, you're white! You don't fight!"? Breh in here claiming black skin is the difference between Assault 2 & 3 on some "it's a deadly weapon shyt.":scust:

Nowitzki was a SF when he started in the league, breh?

Also, the fact that you're trying to paint KP as one-dimensional when, at least according to Basketball reference, KP's total 2nd year percentage of FGAs from 3 point range was 32% and Dirk's was 31%. KP is displaying a spread offensive game as Dirk's early years.

Again, is Dirk a valid first option in your eyes?

@ndthentherewasx
He isn't Dirk. But, breh, what was Dirk doing from year one to two that made you wow'd?

:russ:

Word. shyt is weird as fukk. It's like a couple posters got a "Free Knicks Page" trial or some shyt.

Or we just don't see KP as that dude like he has major weaknesses and ;last yr was truly a disappointing season from him hopefully he can make a jump but i want too see more of the Pistons game from him on a regular basis before i start with the unicorn crap

He has gotten passes and godly stature when all his comp are 10x better Joel is better,KAT is better, Nuserf, jOkic better so why give him these praises when better big man in the league are killing

I stand by the comment too. Articles like that one give me KP nostalgia. I expect Frank to be raw and take time to really develop, but it'd be incredible if this was another KP situation where dude hits the ground running and everybody's caught by surprise.

KP is slow wtf:deadmanny: That's how you know not to take someone's opinion on KP serious.

KP may not be close to Dirk was in terms of shot creation at the same point in their careers, but KP is a lot better off the ball than a lot of big men in the nba(check the article @ Derek Lee posted on the last page) . I mean he didn't pull 18 ppg out of thin air last year, and he would've put up more if had at least a decent pg to hit him on all those screens he came off of and all of those cuts he made. So while KP is terrible in isolation and he needs to get better, he can still score in a lot of ways, so he certainly isn't a limited offensive player. KP isn't getting a pass for his weaknesses, we just understand that he's still a work in progress and fans should be patient.Also It's not just KP's production on the court that has everyone excited, it's the potential that he occasionally flashes that has NY fans in a frenzy; all of the other young bigs in the NBA may have had a better season than KP last year, but no one other than Joel shows the same type of potential on both ends.
